The Upper/Lower Right is due to the fact that the colony PCR plate had duplicates of those colonies and it was unclear which colony was correct (at least, the PCR and gel was correct). So, George took both samples and labeled one as coming from the upper right of the plate (when viewed with the handwriting going the correct way) versus lower right.

Colony PCR of R-P constructs

Stephanie Colony PCR'ed the following:

Stephanie's notebook entry

Plate Reader (Light Scattering)

Stephanie set up another plate reader for fluorescence. One of the things she is testing is choosing ridiculous wavelengths to see if we can get light scattering data that correlates to cell growth.

Miniprep of the J04450 and JT constructs

In preparation for building the constitutive RFP + JT construct, George miniprepped the following parts which were grown overnight:

Digesting the J04450 and J-T

George digested the J04450 with SpeI and PstI; he also digested the J23039>T9002 with XbaI and PstI.

Sequencing the Promoters: R0011, R0051, R0052

George and Stephanie sent the R0011, R0051, and the R0052 for sequencing.

Dephosphorylating the J04450 and J-T

George dephosphorylated the J04450 and the J-T with Antarctic Phosphotase and then heat inactivated the AP. Silly George, AP is for vectors not inserts. Redo it tomorrow.

Liquid Cultures of R-P constructs and J-T

George grew liquid cultures of the following:

The Upper/Lower Right is due to the fact that the colony PCR plate had duplicates of those colonies and it was unclear which colony was correct (at least, the PCR and gel was correct). So, George took both samples and labeled one as coming from the upper right of the plate (when viewed with the handwriting going the correct way) versus lower right.
