Container 3.2
Initial Container v3.2 Preparation and Analysis
- Oligos arrived this morning from Invitrogen. Plan for today is to mix oligos together into pre-stocks, and then working stocks, and then try some initial folding experiments and gel analysis.
- Oligos were very frozen and were left overnight at 4[[:Category:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] to thaw.
New folding conditions
- on PTC-100 machine, called FOLDINGD
- step 1: 80[[:Category:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] for 2 min, increment -1.0[[:Category:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] each cycle
- step 2: go to step 1, 59 more times
- step 3: end
Ordered 3'-biotinylated oligos
- ...because we expect biotin-streptavidin binding to be more reliable than thrombin-aptamer binding

- 12% Invitrogen polyacrylamide gel run @ 120V for 15 min.
- gel cut into DNA & protein sections after removal from cartridge (slight tearing towards bottom)
- protein section stained w/ GelCode Blue Stain (Coomassie Blue) (the same Coomassie Blue used in repeat 1) for 30 min.
- DNA section stained w/ 10μL EtBr in 100 mL Tris-glycine buffer for 30 min.
