Gel extraction

No measurable DNA conc. for "Extr. Dig SOD E+A"
DNA concentrations
Sample Conc [ng/μl] A260/A280
Extr. N-CPP 40.91 1.69
Extr. Dig SOD E+A
Pur. Dig pMA.His E+N 36.02 1.80

From 27/8
Purified DNA from excised samples "Extr. Dig. SOD E+A" and "Extr. N-CPP cluster" using the E.Z.N.A. Gel extraction kit; procedures according to provided protocol.

Elution volume: 30 μl (eluted twice to increase DNA yield)

  • Extr. N-CPP
  • Extr. Dig SOD E+A

DNA purification of "Dig. pMA.His (E+N)"

From 27/8
DNA clean-up using the E.Z.N.A. Gel Extraction kit, following procedures for DNA purification.

Elution volume: 30 μl (eluted twice to increase DNA yield)

  • Pur. Dig. pMA His E+N

Gel verification

Gel verification of gel extracted and purified DNA samples.
3 μl λ; 2 μl sample.
1 kb λ=O'GeneRuler 1 kb DNA ladder. 50 bp λ=GeneRuler 50 bp DNA ladder.

Since no DNA content was measurable for "Extr. Dig SOD E+A", a gel was run to verify DNA content in the three purified samples.

1 % agarose, 110 V

Samples:

  • SOD: Extr. Dig SOD E+A
  • pMA: Pur. Dig pMA.His E+N
  • CPP: Extr. N-CPP cluster

Expected bands:

  • SOD: 492 bp
  • pMA: 2427 bp
  • CPP: 379 bp

Results

  • CPP resulted in a clear band of correct size.
  • A very weak band at ≈500 bp is visible for SOD, which might be traces of DNA.
  • No band visible for pMA.

Nevertheless, proceeded to ligation and cloning, hoping that the DNA is there.

Cloning of SOD into pMA.His

Ligation

  [μl]
Extr. Dig SOD E+A 12
Pur. Dig pMA.His E+N 3
5X Rapid Ligation buffer 4
T4 DNA ligase 1

Incubation: 22 °C, 10 min

Transformation

  • 3 μl ligation mix. 30 min on ice.
  • 30 sec heat shock in 42 °C
  • Cells grown on Amp 100 LB agar, 37 °C

Amplification of N-CPPs from N-CPP cluster
