Revision as of 13:23, 8 September 2006
TO DO: *Western Blot of Dr. Fray's plasmid containing aiiA *Culture from plate from ligation from yesterday (preliminary predator cell with the new aiiA) *Testing of J37015, J37016(for control), Acylase Activity & test a control too *Make frozen stock of new T9002, J37036, J37024 *Control digest for J37036 - Has ligation worked? *Have we ordered new Amp plates? *Collect autoclaved flasks
- JS: Just to point out, you will need to send to the registry the part inside bacteria and not the maxi-preped DNA!
- CS: Yes. That's also one reason why we have been trying to make a frozen stock of all bacteria containing our parts that we ligated. How exactly do we need to send them to the registry?
Sequencing
- Successfully sequenced J37020 - details can be found here
- Sequenced J37023 - details here.
- The sequencing revealed that the region purporting to aiiA was in fact a random sequence from a cloning vector. All the rest of the sequence was fine(the RBS and terminators). The incorrect aiiA sequence even had a degradation tag! This would suggest that the mistake is not due to us, but rather that the sequence sent to us was incorrect.This could well explain all the results for parts containing aiiA so far. However we want to make sure of this result. As a consequence we will sequence 5M which is the part from the well for confirmation.
- The sequencing of J37015RS was not successful - this suggests that the riboswitch was not successfully incorporated into the construct because the primer used was the riboswitch primer. Perhaps re-sequencing using a plasmid primer would be more appropriate for definitive conformation. If we want to submit this then this should be done, however if not, then it is not necessary as we will not be using this construct anymore.
Ampicillin plates
- Not really something you would usually put into the lab notebook but..plates will be ready to pick up from the biochemistry basement at quarter to five (not before this time and no later than 5).
Miniprep
- Alternative digest of new AiiA part (J37023) using Xbal and Spe1
- Run on gel
- Gel shows two bands corresponding to J37023 and T9 vector
Culturing
- Set up "Bob" (J37024 AiiA-NEW/FRAY) for maxi and mini tomorrow.
Freezing Cells
- Made a stock of frozen cells of:
- T9002(d)
- T9002(c)
- J37036(a)
- J37024(1)
- J37024(2)
- J37024(3)
Testing J37015
LB
- 2L of LB has been made and put in for autoclaving. It should be done by the end of today.
