Iron coli project

Week 7: 29th July - 4th August

Construction of plasmid N°2

Our plasmid N°2 is building with a synthetic promote sequence which is composed of:

  • Andersen's promotor
  • Fur Binding Site (15 different)
  • RBS
  • sfGFP
  • Terminator

Golden Gate

In order to associate these sequences we performed a golden gate, using for each sample :

  • 80 ng of Andersen's promotor
  • 80 ng of Fur Binding Site
  • 80 ng of RBS
  • 80 ng of sfGFP
  • 80 ng of Terminator
  • 1.5 µL of T4 buffer (10X)
  • 1 Unit of T4 ligase
  • 1 Unit of Bsa I

Construction of plasmid N°3

29/07/13
We received the primers ordered on friday the 26th of July and started to dilute them into TrisCL at 10 mM. Secondly, we diluted the previous stock solution at a rate of 1/20th to obtain a final concentration of 5 µM for our intermediate solution.

Then, for our plasmid three construction, we need to first extract the 6 enterobactin gene (EntA, EntB, EntC, EntD, EntE and EntF). The ordered primers from friday will theoretically extract them in the appropriate Golden Gate format with their own RBS upstream (designed from Salis RBS). This will allow us to construct our two N°3 plasmids, one containing EntA, EntD and EntF, and the other one EntB, EntC and EntE. The genes are spread like this to obtain two equivalent plasmids xxx

We proceeded to a genomic extraction of the 6 genes of interest and migrated to PCR products on a 1% gel. We successfully extracted 5 out of the 6.

We annealled the oligonucleotides of the PL-LacO part in the golden gate format. Also, we extracted the sfGFP with the RBS upstream which will allow us to construct the control positive plasmid 3 for future TECAN experiments.
