Transformation Results

Colony Check

Plate Colonies
M 34 no
M 12 yes
I 34 no
I 34 yes
1-3A 34 yes
1-3A 12 yes

  • 1-3A had colonies in lated on mediums containing 34 ug/uL of chloramphenicol
    • So the medium and antibiotic consentration seems ok,
  • Medium on which M 12 was plated was inoculated with chloramphenicol after solidification so there were some irregularities and colonies on the fringe
  • Colonies of 1-3A and 12 were obviously different

→ So we suspected issues in Ligation and DNA concentration bused for transformation

Estimation of 1-3A Consentration

Electrophoresis of 1uL of 1-3A DNA
  • Added 1 uL of 1-3A into 30 uL of competent cells
  • Transformation was successful
  • Electrophoresed 1 uL of 1-3A,calculated amount of transformed DNA

→Estimated concentration 2 ng/uL

Ethanol precipitation of pSB1C3 and Ligation

Ethanol precipitation

  1. Added 8.2 uL of sodium acetate [3 M]
  2. Added 205 uL of Ethanol [100%] and mixed
  3. Centrifuge at 15,00rpm, 4C for 10 min
  4. Discarded supernatant and added 500 uL of Ethanol [70%], mixed
  5. Centrifuge at 15,00rpm, 4C for 5 min
  6. Discarded supernatant
  7. Dried via vacuum desiccator
  8. Added 8.2 uL of ADW
  • Concentration increased 10 fold

Ligation

  1. Mixed 8.2 uL of DNA solution with the same volume of Ligation Solution
  2. Added extra 1 uL of T4 ligase
  3. Incubated at 16C for 30 min

Tomorrow will do aditional Electrophoresis gel extraction and transformation

Digestion of PCR products amplified using digestion visualization primers

Electrophoresis after digestion, differences in length is visible

Calculated the concentration of DNA amplified yesterday


RBS 27 ng/uL 312 bp
GFP 54 ng/uL 1020 bp
dT 49 ng/uL 429 bp

Digestion Reaction

Reagent Amount
10x M buffer 1 uL
DW 4.5
DNA 2.5
BSA 1
EcoR I 0.5
Pst I 0.5
Total 10 uL

→Incubated at 37C for 60 min

→Confirmed how awesome new primers are
