Experimental Results

The plates grown from yesterday (2nd Topo&Transformation) show the following:

Positive Control: Many colonies

Negative Control: No colonies

Tranformed Plate: One in the middle, three+ on the edge of the plate.

Site-Specific Mutagenesis PCR

Refer to the image for details; this is the "crossover pcr" step.

Refer to this for PCR overview

For this step, we are going to create 4 PCR constructs with primers which will create the site mutation we want to eliminate the restriction sites.

The 4 sites are:

    1. kABC_3_9
    2. kABC_10_7
    3. kABC_8_5
    4. kABC_6_4

Where:

  • 3=crossF
  • 4=crossR
  • 5=pst1R
  • 6=pst1F
  • 7=pst2R
  • 8=pst2F
  • 9=eco1R
  • 10=eco1F

and:

  • the kABC_x_y signifies the sequence bounded by primers 'x' and 'y'

The cycle for this PCR is:

 *#95@15'
 *#94@30"
 *#56@30"
 *#72@3'30"
 *#Cycle to step 2, 40x
 *#72@5"
 *#4@forever

Each pot should have:

REACTION A
2 mM [Mg]
10 μL template
10 μL 10x buffer
2 μL 10 mM dNTP
2 μL Primer 1
2 μL Primer 2
1 μL Taq
73 μL dH20
