Results from yesterday's transformations
OmpF + RBS 100 ul equal amounts - 44 colonies
OmpF + RBS 100 ul equal moles - 8 colonies
OmpF + RBS 400 ul equal amounts - 107 colonies
OmpF + RBS 400 ul equal moles - 35 colonies
RFP control equal amounts - 15 colonies
RFP control equal moles - 49 colonies
Ligation
The ligation was carried out using two methods: equal volumes and equal moles. To calculate the equimolar volumes, we used the following data:
Part | Part Length (bp) |
---|---|
AMP plasmid | 2155 |
K592011 | 702 |
RBS (B0015) | 129 |
RFP | 774 |
K592011, B0015, AMP plasmid, and RFP were from the digestions on the 29th. We pippetted the following volumes into four 0.6ml tubes:
New Part | A (Cyan + B0015, eq/vol) | B (RFP control, eq/vol) | C (Cyan + B0015, equimolar) | C(RFP Control, equimolar) | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Plasmid | 2 ul | 2 ul | 2 ul | 2 ul | |
Cyan | 2 ul | - | 0.66 | - | |
B0015 | 2 ul | - | - | - | |
B0015 (10x dilution) | - | - | 1.2 ul | - | |
RFP | - | 2 ul | - | 0.74 ul | |
T4 ligase buffer | 1.0 ul | 1.0 ul | 1.0 ul | 1.0 ul | |
T4 DNA ligase | 0.5 ul | 0.5 ul | 0.5 ul | 0.5 ul | |
Non-nuclease water | 2.5 ul | 4.5 ul | 4..64 ul | 5.76 ul |
The tubes were incubated at 16C for 30 minutes and then 80C for 20 minutes.
