Week 3 Day 1 TSL - Set up 10 Dig-Lig reactions with new BSA1 enzyme provided by TSL. - DNA was transformed into E.coli using electroporation method previously discussed. - Transformed bacteria was spreadplated onto canamycin plates containing XGAL and IPTG and incubated O/N at 37°C. - Mini-prep of DNA obtained from Week 2's successful Dig-Lig experiments according to Qiagen protocol. However, DNA eluted in 25 µl of eluting buffer rather than 50 µl as protocol suggests. - DNA conc. of each sample quanitifed using the Nanodrop. - DNA diluted to obtain 5 ng in each 5 µl sample. - Sense and Antisense primers to each 5 µl DNA (+H20) to achieve 20 µl sample in total and sent for sequencing to verify construct sequence.
