==CNTI Acos5==
** Lance et al (2009) Conservation Genetics Resources, Sceloporus undulatus
 
* Forward and reverse as given in publication, also reverse with pigtail (GTTTCTT) at 5' end, also forward with M13F(-21) tag (TGTAAAACGACGGCCAGT)
 
* [[Image:Luckau_Primer20100927.jpg|500 px]]
===PCR===
* Try all four combinations
 
# F - R
 
# F - R pigtail
* comments
# F M13 - R
:: [[Image:20130110_PCRa.png|800 px]]
# F M13 - R pigtail
 
* If they don't hinder efforts or change optimization decisions, then may make optimization of multiplexes cheaper!

===Gel===
===Purpose===
 
* 10μL in each well of full-skirt PCR plate, PCR seal
{| {{table}} style="text-align: center"
* First set-up of thermalcycler, established User, Protocols, Plates and Masters
|-
* Data: 20101011_TKL_CyclerTest.tad
! Pour !! Load !! Run
===Results===
|-
* Evaporation all around edges
| 270 mL 1x TAE + 5.4 g agarose || 2 µL gel load dye + 4 µL PCR product || 160 V
* Try using silicone mat?
|-
===Purpose===
| 27 µL GelRed || 6 µL ladder || 45 minutes
* 10μL in each well of full-skirt PCR plate, PCR seal, 1 silicone mat
|}
* Data: 20101011_TKL_CyclerTest1Mat.tad
 
===Results===
 
* Still evaporation around edges, but better
:: [[Image:20130110_Gela.png|800 px]]
* Try using 2 silicone mats?
 
==12 October 2010 - PCR Thermalcycler Testing==
 
===Purpose===
* mispriming everywhere - primer pair not usable for CNHY
* 10μL in each well of full-skirt PCR plate, PCR seal, 2 silicone mats
* lots of mispriming, but may be able to use conditions indicated by orange face ([[Image:orangefrownyface.png|20 px]]), if needed, under stringent conditions
* Data: 20101012_TKL_CyclerTest2Mat.tad
* favorable conditions indicated by [[Image:greenhappyface.png|25 px]]
===Results===
 
* No evaporation!
 
* Silicone mats got stuck on lid
===Fragment Analysis Submission===
* Try using 2 silicone mats with tape?
 
* Try getting samples of different brand of silicone mats, different shape, no holes?
 
==18 October 2010 - PCR Thermalcycler Testing==
* UAGC Submission# ????
===Purpose===
:: [[Image:20130227_Frag.png|900 px]]
* 10µL in each well of full-skirt PCR plate, PCR seal, 2 silicone mats, lab tape on opposite sides
 
* Data: 20102018_TKL_CyclerTest2MatTape.tad
 
===Results===
* FedEx Tracking# [http://www.fedex.com/Tracking?language=english&cntry_code=us&tracknumbers=801124151779 801124151779]
* H6, H7 evaporated, but I think it's workable
:: [[Image:20130227_FedEx.png|700 px]]
* Plan to do first optimization PCR tomorrow!
 
==18 October 2010 - Primer Rehydration, Scun2==
 
===Purpose===
* FedEx picked up ____pm, 26 February
* Rehydrate Scun2 primers for testing tomorrow
* FedEx delivered ____am, 27 February
# Scun2-F
* UAGC received ____am, 27 February
# Scun2-R
* UAGC completed ____am, 28 February
# Scun2-F-M13F(-21)
 
# Scun2-R-pigtail
===Calculations===
* Scun2-F
** 28.3nmol + 141.5 Low TE = 200µM STK
* Scun2-R
** 29.2nmol + 146µL Low TE = 200µM STK
* Scun2-F-M13F(-21)
** 26.6nmol + 133µL Low TE = 200µM STK
* Scun2-R-pigtail
** 30.5nmol + 152.5µL Low TE = 200µM STK
* stored overnight in fridge to rehydrate completely before making dilution to 20µM
==18 October 2010 - dNTP Mix==
===Purpose===
* Mix dNTPs and aliquot for PCR
===Calculations===
* Have: Invitrogen 100mM dNTP Set (catalog# 10297-018) (250µL of 25µmol in H2O @ 100mM each)
* Want: 10mM dNTP mix (2.5mM each), 5 aliquots of 1000µL
* (C1)(V1)=(C2)(V2)
*: (2.5mM)(5000µL)=(100mM)(V2)
*: V2=125µL of each dNTP
===Wet Work===
* 125µL dATP + 125µL dTTP + 125µL dCTP + 125µL dGTP + 4500µL H2O = 5000µL dNTP Mix @ 10mM (2.5mM each dNTP)
* Used NanoPure H20 from room 325
* Aliquots: 1000µL into each of 5 snap-caps; 4 stored in freezer, 1 stored in fridge for immediate use
==19 October 2010 - PCR Scun2 F-R==
* [[Image:Luckau_PCR20101019.jpg|700 px]]
* DNA = SCOC CPN 82
* 2 mats with lab tape, no evaporation!
==21 October 2010 - Gel Scun2 F-R==
===Make 1x TAE===
* 20mL 50x TAE + 980 mL NanoPure H<sub>2</sub>O
===Cast Gel===
* 100mL 1x TAE + 1.5g agarose
* large stirbar, hotplate set at 150 for about 30 min
* let cool about 20 min
* not enough volume! FAIL!
===Next Try===
* 270mL TAE + 4.05g agarose
* (for future reference, total volume ≈ volume of gel box in cm<sup>3</sup>, ie 27cm long x 20 cm wide x 0.5 cm thick gel = 270mL of TAE)
==25 October 2010 - Gel Scun2 F-R==
===Cast Gel===
* 270mL TAE + 4.05g agarose in 500mL Erlenmyer flask
* large stirbar, hotplate set at 150, stir set at 15 for about 45 min, until clear
* add 27µL GelRed
* let cool in dark for about 30 min
* pour into caster, set 2 24-tooth combs, cover with cardboard
* let cool in dark (had to do office hours, sat for about 2 hours)
==25 October 2010 - Ladder Mix==
===Manufacturer specifications===
* 0.1µg ladder / mm width of well (STK at 1.0µg/µL)
===Calculations===
* well width (24-tooth comb) = 6mm
* 6mm x 0.1µg ladder
