PCR
8/4: Cph/EnvZ, P1, P3, mtrB not BB
HO-pcyA and ompR bands excised, purified, and digested (ApaLI & Kpn overnight).
8/4 Colony PCR of putative mtrB samples
We picked 24 colonies each of old putative P98 and newly transformed putative P98+63 for colony PCR using the BioBrick primers and 55°C annealing for 30 cycles. If the colonies contained mtrB, a band at ~2.1 kb should appear. No colonies appeared to contain mtrB.
All gels with 1kb plus ladder

Lane 1: 1 kb plus ladder |
8/4 CphEnvZ, P1, P3, mtrB
8/5: gels
Gel for excision (includes old PCR samples)
Bands excised and digested: Cph/P105 (AK), P3 (AK), mtrB (XP, ES)
Bands excised and saved: ompR, HO-pcyA, CDF
Ligations and transformations 08/06
We ligated P105 and P1/P3 not BB, and mtrB not BB and P1/P3 not BB. We tried letting the ligation reactions run for 5 and 10 minutes. We used P1/P3 not BB from 08/05 and from another date (older). We transformed using TOP10 and DH5α. We also retransformed P108, the Lac QPI with a high constitutive promoter in a p15A vector.
TOPO cloning
08/04
P1, mtrB
These had a few white colonies. Colony PCR, however, indicated that the correct PCR product was not incorporated.
ompR
All colonies were blue.
HO-pcyA
No colonies.

Ligations
HO-pcyA, ompR, CDF
All three ligations yielded >50 colonies on the TOP10 cell plate with a 5 minute ligation in all combinations (HO-pcyA and ompR with P1 and old P3; CDF with P3). The P90 (CDF+P3) did not fluoresce. The DH5α cells did not have nearly as many (<5) and ligation times (10min, 30 min) did not appear to be significant.
Colony PCR
We picked at least 18 colonies from each ligation set, patched a master plate, inoculated liquid cultures, and performed 12.5 μL colony PCR reactions. The BBp/sfx primer pair was used, annealing temperature was 50°C for first 10 cycles and 54°C for rest of the cycles. 2 controls were performed: one using a picked P20 colony, and another with miniprepped P20 plasmid.

Fluorescent colony was picked for liq culture and restreaked. Miniprep sent for sequencing-- ligation confirmed by sequencing (8/5).

[Gels here]
Strange bands, but sent several clones for sequencing anyway.
Digestion and Ligation of P18+P63 and P75+P63
