  • Star Activity
    • Optimal Buffer from Fermentas

Use pUC19 plasmid as test, it has cut sites for EcoRI, PstI, XbaI (unsure about BcuI/SpeI, DpnI but will try anyways), and none for EcoRV
Red Buffer: EcoRI, PstI, Control (No Enzyme)
Tango Buffer: BcuI/SpeI, XbaI, DpnI, Control (No Enzyme>

Methods: Set up Master Mixes:

To each tube, add 19.75µL of master mix and 0.25µL of enzyme
Incubated reaction mixes at 37oC (Start:7:00pm; End:7:45pm)
Add 3.3µL of 6x loading dye to each reaction mixture and load 10µL final volume onto a 1% agarose (in TAE) gel.
Add 1µL of 6x loading dye to 1µL of GeneRuler 1kb ladder (at 0.5µg/µL)
Gel loading order as follows:

May 13/2010 Evening(in lab: AS,TF,KG,JS,MC)
Objective: To make a second attempt at transforming plasmids that didn't transform the first time. These plasmids are:

  • Lumazine-dT (J5,J6)
  • pBad-TetR
  • sRBS (D5,E10)
  • C-term tag

Transform plasmid DNA (Using "Competent Cell Transformation" Protocol) into newly aliquotted DH5α cells. (KG,JS)
NOTES:
AS concerned that there is something not quite right with LB liquid media added to transformed cells, but continued anyways (JV informed AS the next day that the LB liquid media had not been sterilized).
Plated all 250µL of culture.

Incubated at 37oC, beginning at 20h30 (8:30pm); shaking at 300RPM
Results:
All streak plates (with cells from glycerol stocks) grew.
Only sRBS (D5) and pBad-TetR cells (from transformation plates) grew.

(in the lab: JV, AV, HB)
Objective: To isolate plasmid DNA of pBad-TetR and sRBS (D5), using boiling lysis miniprep.\

NOTE: Cells from liquid cultures grown last night (May 17/2010) were made into glycerol stocks and placed into the working glycerol stock box as follows:

  • pBAD-TetR - E5
  • pBAD-TetR - E6
  • sRBS (D5) - E7
  • sRBS (D5) - E8
