DIGEST
*Set up the following reaction: 8uL of eluted PCR product 1uL of NEB Buffer 2 0.5uL EcoRI 0.5uL BamHI *Incubate at 37 degrees on the thermocycler for 1hr
REGULAR ZYMO CLEANUP
The following procedure removes the polymerase, dNTPs, buffer, and most of the oligonucleotides from a PCR reaction. It also will remove the buffer and restriction enzymes from a restriction digest reaction. 1. Add 180 uL of Zymo ADB buffer (brown bottle) to a 33uL or 50uL reaction (min. is 3 volumes) 2. Transfer into the Zymo column (small clear guys) 3. spin through (15 secs at max speed, ie around 15,000 rpm), discard waste. 4. Add 200 uL of PE or Zymo Wash buffer (which is basically 70% ethanol) 5. spin through, discard waste. 6. Add 200 uL of PE or Zymo Wash buffer 7. spin through, discard waste. 8. spin for 90 seconds, full speed to dry. 9. elute with water into a fresh Eppendorf tube, use the same volume of water as the volume of the original reaction (used 10ul)

GEL:

for HydroxyapatiteBP and Magnetic Bead BP:
SMALL-FRAG ZYMO CLEANUP:
The following procedure removes the polymerase, dNTPs, buffer, and most of the oligonucleotides from a PCR reaction for fragments smaller than 300bp. It also will remove the buffer and restriction enzymes from a restriction digest reaction. 1. Add 100 uL of Zymo ADB buffer (brown bottle) to the reaction. 2. Transfer into the Zymo column (small clear guys) 3. Add 500uL of Ethanol and pipette up and down to mix 4. spin through, discard waste. 5. Add 200 uL of PE or Zymo Wash buffer (which is basically 70% ethanol) 6. spin through, discard waste. 7.

DIGEST:
*Set up the following reaction: 50uL of eluted PCR product 5.7uL of NEB Buffer 2 1uL EcoRI 1uL BamHI *Incubate at 37 degrees on the thermocycler for 1hr
ANOTHER SMALL FRAG ZYMO CLEAN-UP
- elute in 50ul

Got the oligos: no longer working on the Beta Helix Repeats basic part, so I'm no longer going to be using Ost005F and Ost 006R
Ost001F 25.70nmol Tm = 61.1
Ost002R 26.30nmol Tm = 66.9
Ost003F 26.30nmol Tm = 69.0
Ost004R 29.70nmol Tm = 70.6
Ost007F 27.40nmol Tm = 64.5
Ost008R 31.40nmol Tm = 66.0
Today I set up the Wobble reactions for Hydroxyapatite-binding peptide and Magnetic Bead Binding Peptide and the PCR reaction for upaG Autotransporter short version.
Left them in the respective machines
Updated the pages for each of the projects
For Monday: - start gel for the PCR product - cleanup for the Wobble reactions - clean-up for the PCR

Today we went through more protocols; I wrote down my notes here so I would have everything on one page for Monday.
OLIGOS :
- they will be at a concentration of 28.80 nmol (may be at a diff concentration, need to check) and we want a final concentration of 100uM --> add 288 ul of water (if 28.80 nmol) (make sure you spin down the tubes before adding the water to make sure everything's at the bottom); mix well (tube rack) and spin down again --> oligo concentrations are now 100uM
PCR :
- first need to make an oligo dilution of: 9uL Water 1uL 100uM oligo You can throw away the remainder of the diluted oligo when you are done, but hold onto your stock tube! Set up the following reaction in a PCR tube (this is only for regular PCR, not Wobble Reaction): 24uL ddH2O 3.3uL 10x Expand Buffer "2" 3.3uL dNTPs (2mM in each) 1uL Oligo 1, 10uM 1uL Oligo 2, 10uM 0.5uL Expand polymerase "1" 0.5uL Template DNA
There are different programs: have to choose between C55, C2K55, C4K55, C8K55
If you get no product or poor yield of product, repeat the same PCR reaction as two different variants, both with the “45” program. The first reaction will be the same composition as the first. For the second one, don’t add 3.3 uL of the water and instead use the volume for 3.3 uL of DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide). If these PCRs fail as well, well you'd either redesign, use a different template source, or give up.
GEL:
- 5ul sample + 1ul dye - ladder: 3-5ul - run at 100V for about 20 minutes
REGULAR ZYMO CLEANUP:
The following procedure removes the polymerase, dNTPs, buffer, and most of the oligonucleotides from a PCR reaction.

Add 200 uL of PE or Zymo Wash buffer 7. spin through, discard waste. 8. spin for 90 seconds, full speed to dry. 9. elute with water into a fresh Eppendorf tube, use the same volume of water as the volume of the original reaction
DIGEST:
For PCR products, you will only digest a portion of your purified PCR product. Note that you must make a minor modification to the procedure if your DNA is shorter than 300bp (you add a little isopropanol to the ADB after melting) *Set up the following reaction: 8uL of eluted PCR product 1uL of NEB Buffer 2 0.5uL EcoRI 0.5uL BamHI *Incubate at 37 degrees on the thermocycler for 1hr *Run an agarose gel, and melt with 600uL ADB buffer at 55 degrees. ****NOTE: If you are running short of time, this is an acceptable stopping point *If the DNA is shorter than 300bp, add 250uL of isopropanol and mix prior to loading it on the column
