Lab 208


Main purpose


  • Extraction PCR for AMO
  • PCR for SPL (synthetic promoter library)
  • PCR for reference promoter
  • PCR for araBAD biobrick K808000
  • PCR to extract Nir2 from P. aeruginosa
  • PCR for araBAD and SPL with DMSO
  • PCR on Nir1 with MgCl2 gradient
  • Gel purification of Nir1 (from P. aeruginosa)
  • Plasmid isolation: HAO in pZA21 from USER cloning.

Who was in the lab


Kristian, Gosia, Natalia, Henrike

Procedure


PCR for AMO

Made four reactions using 1 uL respectively 10 uL of culture from the -20 or from the glycerol stock (-80) as template and adjusted volume of water accordingly.

Primers 10a, 10b.

PCR for SPL (synthetic promoter library)

template: pZA21 with RFP, primers: 52a, 52b1, temperature: 50C, time: 2:30

PCR for reference promoter

template: pZA21 with RFP, primers: 52a, 52b2, temperature: 50C, time: 2:30

PCR for araBAD K808000

template: K808000, primers: 12a, 12bn, temperature: 50C, time: 2:30

PCR to extract Nir2 from P. aeruginosa

PCR for araBAD and SPL with DMSO

Template and primers as previous.

PCR on Nir1 with MgCl2 gradient

Used previous isolation from a gel purification to make PCR for amplification of the strand. Used 5% DMSO as additive. The PCR was done with primer pair 41 and with x7 polymerase at 55C annealing and 5:00 min extension. Also we used 20 sec as denaturing time instead of the normal 10. The magnesium gradient was as follow:

  • 0
  • 1uL MgCl2 2mM per 50uL reaction
  • 5uL MgCl2 2mM per 50uL reaction
  • 20uL MgCl2 2mM per 50uL reaction

Gel purification

of the Nir1 fragment extracted from P. aeruginosa. Nanodrop: 8ng/uL

Plasmid miniprep

HAO in pZA21 from USER cloning was purified for restriction analysis. Nanodrop measurement: 180ng/uL
