Overview

A PCR reaction to generate linearized construction vector backbones for Fusion(Freiburg)-formatted Biobrick assemblies.

The classic assembly protocol digests the target vector (usually pSB1*) in parallel to the digestions of the two Biobrick parts. We prefer to create a stock of target backbone by PCR with a fast high-fidelity polymerase. This way, mutations in the ccdB death cassette of the target vector cannot escape selection.

  • 35x (10"@98°C; 15"@68C; 1'30"@72C);
  • 10'@72C;
  • inf. 4C

Post-Processing

  1. add 1µl DpnI, incubate for 1h @ 37°C
    • mix the tube so that the enzyme contacts all surfaces
    • longer (2h) incubation may still reduce background
  2. heat-inactivate 20'@80°C
  3. purify with PCR purification kit
    • elute in water **not** elution buffer
  4. dilute to 28 ng/µl (we assume a 10 % dilution by the following Phosphatase treatment)
  5. proceed with restriction C
    • add 2µl restriction mix C to each 8µl DNA
    • incubate for 3h @ 37°C
    • heat-inactivate 20' @ 80°C
  6. proceed with phosphatase treatment
    • add 10 x antarctic phospatase buffer to 1 x final concentration
    • add 1µl Antarctic Phosphatase
    • incubate 1h @ 37°C; heat-inactivate 5' @ 65°C
  7. verify samples on 1% Agarose gel
