BAMT PCR Product Eco/Pst Digest

1. We are cutting the BAMT pcr product (using EcoRI and PstI)--
2. Total reaction volume is 50μL
3. the amount of dna desired is about 800 nanograms
   • BAMT pcr product at 58.8 ng/μL -----add 13.6 μL
4. we are also going to use Dpn1 only in BAMT cut reaction to destroy dna that is not a pcr product (i.e. get rid of extra template)

1. BAMT pcr cleanup product cut reaction:
   • 28.9 μL water
   • 5 μL NEB buffer 2
   • .5 μL BSA
   • 13.6 μL BAMT pcr cleanup product (concentration = 50 ng/μL)
   • .75 μL Pst1
   • .75 μL EcoR1
   • .5 μL Dpn 1
2. Incubate tube in 37c room for 1-6 hours, then 20 mins at 80deg C to heat inactivate the enzyme, then 4deg forever.
3. Did a PCR cleanup & nanodrop: concentration of digested BAMT = ??ng/μL
4. run a gel before moving on to ligation !!

ATF1 PCR Product Xba/Pst Digest

1. We are cutting the ATF1 pcr product (using XbaI and PstI)--
2. Total reaction volume is 50μL
3. the amount of dna desired is about 800 nanograms
   • ATF1 pcr product at 30.8 ng/μL -----add 26 μL
4. we are also going to use Dpn1 only in ATF1 cut reaction to destroy dna that is not a pcr product (i.e. get rid of extra template)

1. ATF1 Digest:
   • 16.5 μL water
   • 5 μL NEB buffer 3
   • .5 μL BSA
   • 26 μL ATF1 pcr cleanup product (concentration = 50 ng/μL)
   • .75 μL Pst1
   • .75 μL XbaI
   • .5 μL Dpn 1
2. Incubate tube in 37c room for 1-6 hours, then 20 mins at 80deg C to heat inactivate the enzyme, then 4deg forever.
3. Did a PCR cleanup & nanodrop: concentration of digested SAMT = ??ng/μL
4. run a gel before moving on to ligation !!
