Week 8: Monday 30th August - Sunday 5th September

Contents

Monday

Result (from Expt. 68):

No growth overnight, 2 growths out of 3 plates (+1 fungus) after weekend of growing. No glow.

69. Expt: Growing up of cell cultures of above experimental results & of results on p49 (Will)

Strains G1, j1 and G28wh were grown up in 5ml LB + 2µl Chloramphenicol, and on plates containing LB+Cm.

Left to grow at 30°C for 24h.

Results: Strains grew but did not glow after 48h.

70. Expt: Miniprep pSB1C3 from colonies (Anja)

Suspended a 'streak' of bacteria transformed with BBa_J04450 (registry part in pSB1C3) in 250µl buffer P1. Followed 'Bench protocol: Qiagen Spin Miniprep Kit Using a Microcentrifuge'.

Nanodrop 12.8ng/µl

71. Expt: Gibson assembly of pBAD, luxCD,AB,EG and pSB1C3 (Anja)

PCR:

BBa_J04450 luxGend.for.suffix pBADstart.r.prefix pSB1C3 (E)

BBa_J04450: once purified (E), once colony PCR (EC)

Followed protocol on p38 for PCR mixtures and programs.

Gel electrophoresis

Self-cast 1% agarose gel loaded as follows:

Easyladder II A A B B C C D D E E EC EC
10µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl 17µl

Run at 120V.

No bands were visible. Not even in the marker lane. Since a gel was that had been sitting on the bench for a few days and SYBR Safe Dye is light sensitive it is assumed that the dye had become non-functional.

A 1% Agarose gel was loaded as follows:

Easyladder II A A B C D E? EC?
10µl 12µl 12µl 12µl 12µl 12µl 12µl 12µl PCR Rxn
3µl 3µl 3µl 3µl 3µl 3µl 3µl 6x LD
