10 µL of minipreped DNA corresponds to approximately 125ng of DNA (see fluorescence of the 3Kb band of the ladder)

Restriction digest

• pSUlib - attC KanR cut by SpeI and PstI
• pSUlib EX-B0015-attC-S-mRFP1-P KanR cut by XbaI and PstI

2 conditions for each plasmid :
condition 1 : Using 2 µL of DNA (add 40 µL of water)
condition 2 : Using 5 µL of DNA (add 37 µL of water)

Final volume : 50 µL

42-X µL distilled water
5 µL buffer 10x
0,5 µL BSA 100x
X µL minipreped DNA (roughly 500 nanograms)
1 µL restriction enzyme 1
1 µL restriction enzyme 2

Protocol
1- Add in order listed above.
2- Vortex the entire mixture for 2 sec and then spin down using a desktop microcentrifuge.
3- Put the reaction in the 37°C incubator for 2h.

DNA Gel electrophoresis (2 gels, agarose 1,0% w/v) (gel extraction for purification of DNA)

After migration, we made a bath with EtBr during 5-10 min.
