Analytical Gel

1) Prepared loading solution with 5uL PCR product and 5uL dilute loading buffer.
2) Gel ran for x min until ladders were resolved.
3) Verified 4kB band in lane 8 [[:Image:IMG_1608.JPG | here]].

Regular Zymo Cleanup

1) Added remaining PCR reaction (27uL) to 180uL Zymo ADB buffer (brown bottle) in Zymo column (clear color).
2) Spun at 14k rpm for 30sec. Discarded waste.
3) Added 200uL Zymo wash buffer (70% EtOH) and spun at 14k rpm for 30sec. Discarded waste. Performed step twice.
4) Spun an extra 90 sec. to dry.
5) Eluted with 27uL ddH2O into clean eppendorf.

Summary for 18 February 2009: received and reconstituted the Oeh001F/Oeh002R oligos and performed PCR.

Oligos

1) Performed quick spin on tubes to pellet the DNA powder.
2) Added 288uL ddH2O to 288nmol of oligos to reach a final concentration of 100uM.
3) Took out a 1uL aliquot and diluted ten-fold to 10uM for PCR recipe.

PCR

1) Combined the following: 24uL ddH2O, 3.3uL 10x buffer "2", 3.3uL dNTPs (2mM), 1uL FP/RP (10uM), 0.5uL of pBca1256-Bca1346 DNA.
2) Added 0.5uL Expand Polymerase "1".
3) Used the C4K55 thermocycler protocol for an expected product ~4kb.
