After amplification, an analytical gel electrophoresis was run to quantify DNA concentrations.

Check on PCR-products by gel eletrophoresis. All products showed an appropriate size.

Assembly

Gibson assembly was followed by purification with isopropanol and transformation by heat shock into ccdB resistent and non-resistent (Top10) cells.

After 10 hours of culture growth, colony PCRs and test digests with Pst1 and EcoRI were conducted. Afterwards, minipreps of cultures containing the plasmids and concentration measurements were performed accompanied by test digests. Finally, positive constructs were transformed again and prepared for sequencing.


Colony PCRs. On the left: ccdB (all positive except 8). On the right: Indigoidine (all positive). Digests of ccdB-indC constructs 1-5 with Pst1 and EcoRI. Digests of ccdB-indC constructs 6-10 with Pst1 and EcoRI. Digests of ccdB-indC3 and 7 with Pst1 and EcoRI. Results were positive.
