07/14/10 ✓ Cultures: pJ10's and pAct5C plasmid transformations (2 mL ~5 hr. Turbo cultures) ✓ Assemblies: re-try cloning from yesterday (may have incorrectly cut V0120) Minipreps > Check pJ10's with BamHI/KpnI digests > Check pAct5C with BioBrick enzymes: EcoRI/ XbaI NotI/ XbaI SpeI/ XbaI PsI/ XbaI XbaI 0 enzyme Reagent Volume Expected: 1. pJ10:G04380(eGFP) = 760, 4179 2. pJ10:G04376(CFP) = 757, 4179 3. pJ10:G04382(Citrine) = 757, 4179 4. pJ10:G04381(mCh) = 751, 4179 5. pAct5C E/X = ? 6. pAct5C N/X = linear (full length) 7. pAct5C S/X = 2 bands (luciferase, vector) 8. pAct5C P/X = ? 9. pAct5C X = linear (full length) 10. pAct5C ctrl = supercoiled 15 μL/lane; 1% agarose DNA(plasmid) 2.0 10X buffer 1.5 enzyme 1 1.0 enzyme 2 1.0 dH2O 9.5   15 μL --> 37°C/ ~15 min. --> Conclusions: pAct5C contains EcoRI and PstI, but not sure where since there is no sequence data. Will cut out renilla luc w/ SpeI/ NotI and replace with mini BB cloning site (NotI-SpeI). Order primers tomorrow.
