lab 208

Main purpose

• Plasmid isolation of CycAX, TAT3-2, TAT3-1a, Sec2, HAO, pZA21::RFP and pZA21::araBAD::RFP.

Who was in the lab

Ariadni, Helen, Kristian, Julia

Procedure

Plasmid isolation

Plasmid have been isolated following the protocol provided by ORIGENE PowerPrep HP Plasmid Miniprep Kit.

Glycerol stock cultures

-80C stock solution of Sec2, TAT3-1a, TAT3-2

DpnI treatment

DpnI treated the USER fragments for the SPl project since there were many colonies on the negative controls which can only arise from template DNA used in the PCR. This is removed by DpnI.

User ligation and transformation

Repeated ligation and transformation from yesterday with same reaction mix to get seperated colonies useable for the SPL project. Plating in a gradient: 5uL, 50 uL, 100uL

Results

gel

• 1 kb ladder
• purification of the extraction fragment of Nir2
• Nir2 USER touchdown, sample 1
• Nir2 USER touchdown, sample 2
• Nir2 USER touchdown, sample 3
• Nir2 USER touchdown, sample 4
• Nir2 USER touchdown, sample 5
• Nir2 USER touchdown negative
• 1 kb ladder

The purification has the wrong length for Nir2 and was therefore discarded.

transformation

Yesterday's transformation yielded too many colonies that were inseparable, it will therefore be repeated and less volume will be plated.
