June 3, 2009

  1. Plasmid transformed = pSB1AC3 (TEST)
    • Note: team members were of mixed opinion as to whether the transform was likely due to low availability of DNA - DNA was split between a number of transformation reactions for at least 2 different DB3.1 strains. Plates incubated at 30 degrees Celsius overnight, temp. raised to 37 degrees approx. 10:30 a.m.

June 5, 2009

  1. Tet plates made
    Recipe for 200 ml (approx. 10 plates):
    2.2 g agar in 200 ml fresh LB
    Note: do not re-autoclave LB, it will caramelize!
    Recipe for 200 ml LB:
    a) 1 g yeast extract
    b) 2 g peptotryptone
    c) 2 g NaCl
    d) 200 ml water
  2. Autoclaved at 11:20 a.m., picked up at 1:15 p.m. and cooled in water bath at 37 degrees Celsius
  3. Added 200 microlitres tetracycline stock (from -20 freezer) to final concentration of 20 microgram/ml
  4. Swirl and poured into prepared, labeled plates
    • Note: label on plates reads June 3, 2009 but should be June 5, 2009 (8 plates in total - either I overpoured or these plates are a bit larger than I was used to)
  5. Inverted and put in 37 degree incubator to dry

June 8, 2009

  1. Bacteria grown to log phase using sterile inoculating loop to inoculate approx. 200 ml of LB media with bacteria from 2 plates (approx. 3 colonies)
  2. Bacterial liquid culture placed in shaker at 10:51 a.m.

June 9, 2009

  1. Digested miniprepped gel with EcoRI and SpeI
  2. Running gel to see if correct plasmid was purified - should expect to see bands at ~3200 bp
  3. DNA Ladder made - 6 microlitres of stock used
