First step of Manual Assembly: Creating iGEM10_003

Ligation:

Followed this protocol with the following amendments:
Mastermix

  • 6.5uL ddH2O
  • 1uL T4 DNA Ligase Buffer (small red or black-striped tubes)
  • 0.5uL T4 DNA Ligase

DNA

  • 3uL Lefty vector
  • 3uL Right vector

Added DNA to MM at 5:17pm. Will incubate on bench until 5:37pm.

Zymo

Means of getting rid of restriction enzymes. Didn't heat kill because BamH1 isn't denatured by heat killing. Eluted with 10uL of H2O. Products are labeled 7+11 L, 9+8 L, 9+20 L.

Digestion

Lefty MM added to 9+8, 7+11, 9+20
Right MM added to 7+23, 8+6, 7+5
They should be done incubating at 3:48pm.


Lefty MasterMix (for 4uL miniprep DNA)

  • 4uL water
  • 1uL of NEB2
  • 0.5uL XhoI
  • 0.5uL BamH1

Righty MasterMix (for 4uL miniprep DNA)

  • 4uL water
  • 1uL of NEB2
  • 0.5uL XhoI
  • 0.5uL BglII

Colony PCR of 7+10 (we forgot to do this last week).
Lane 1: ladder
Lane 2: sample a
Lane 3: b
Lane 4: c
Lane 5: d

Analysis: Part is about 100bp, so all samples look correct, because the PCR product should be around 300bp.
To do: Allow inoculations to grow to saturation overnight. Miniprep to extract plasmids tomorrow.

Colony PCR of 7+10

(vector=7, part=10)
Ran Col500PCR on four colonies picked off of 7+10 plate. Also innoculated each colony in 3mL of LB-KA. Put tubes in shaker upstairs.
