=Pseudomonas aeruginosa mer operon cloning 3=
==Preparation==
What can I do in order to make sure the cloning works this time?
*Check concentrations of the chromatin DNA: '''351 ng/ul'''
Remember its not pure DNA but rather cracked open cells, still yield is appropriate.
*Do a dilution series over two orders of magnitude of the template DNA: 3ng/ul - 300ng/ul
**All dilutions are to be done in at '''LEAST 100ul volume''' ddH<sub>2</sub>O
**Dilute stock 1:1.2: yields 300ng/ul
**Dilute twice 1:10: yields 30ng/ul and 3ng/ul


==PCR set-up of the operon==
50 ul total reaction volume
===Master mix (2 pmol primers) 10X===
#Primers (F&R): 20 ul
#Taq polymerase standard reaction buffer (10X): 50 ul
#dNTP mix (40mM): 10 ul, i.e. final conc. 4mM/Rx
#Taq DNA polymerase (5U/ul): 5 ul, i.e. final conc. 0.5U/Rx
#ddH<sub>2</sub>O: 320 ul
===Master mix (4 pmol primers) 10X===
#Primers (F&R): 40 ul
#Taq polymerase standard reaction buffer (10X): 50 ul
#dNTP mix (40mM): 10 ul, i.e. final conc. 4mM/Rx
#Taq DNA polymerase (5U/ul): 5 ul, i.e. final conc. 0.5U/Rx
#ddH<sub>2</sub>O: 300 ul
