105, mtrB Ligations/transformations 08/17
Parts to ligated came from 8/17
We used a 2:1 molar ratio of insert to vector for all of the ligations. The ligations were all transformed into TOP10 cells.
Plasmid | Number of colonies |
P105+P1'BB | 2 |
P105+P3'BB | 102 |
P101+P105 | 0 |
P101+P108 | 0 |
(mtrB(BB)+P97)+P108 | 20 |
(mtrB(BB)+P97)+P116 | 4 |
(mtrB(BB)+P97)+P117 | 13 |
In retrospect, it appears that all the ligations with mtrB are wrong, since the digest was actually wrong.
105 Colony PCR 08/18
The annealing temperature was 55 °C and the elongation time was 2'45" (we used Platinum Taq supermix).
Expected band size is 2475bp.

We used the 45 just digested, so all DNA was cut with the Fermentas enzymes.

Colony PCR 08/19
The annealing temperature was 55°C and the elongation time was 2'30" for P108+45 and 2' for P116 and P117. We used the Platinum Taq SUPERmix.

Ligations/transformations of P101+115/118 08/19
We used a 2:1 insert to vector ratio for all ligations. We tried using Amy™'s method of dephosphorylating (i.e. using the Roche kit).
Plasmid | Strain | Number of colonies |
P101 vector control (P115) | DH5-alpha | too many to count (same as P101+115 in DH5-alpha) |
P101+115 | DH5-alpha | too many to count |
P101+115 | TOP10 | too many to count (more than in P101+115 in DH5-alpha) |
P101 vector control (P115) | DH5-alpha | too many to count (less than P101+118 in DH5-alpha) |
P101+115 | DH5-alpha | too many to count |
P101+115 | TOP10 | too many to count (more than in P101+118 in DH5-alpha) |
Colony PCR 08/20
We used an annealing temperature of 55 °C and elongation temperature 1'45" and 2'15", and Platinum Taq SUPERmix
