Alkane degration

Yesterday's plates showed colonies. To check whether these contained the desired insert a colony PCR was performed. The products of this PCR were checked on a gel.

On the gel, two colonies of 011A showed the right length. None of the lengths for 013A or K were correct. They did however match the PCR length (009A, 482) of one the inserts which was digested in order to create this BioBrick. Next week we will take a few more colonies from the plate and check these, and otherwise the digestion and ligation will be tried again.

Ligation

Digested pAlkS, B0032, AlkS and P(Caif) were ligated as followed:


# Description Volume (µl)

AlkS-E0240 3.0
ligase 1.5
ligase buffer 1
2 PalkS12-B0032 10.5
pSB1T3 2.0
ligase 1.5
ligase buffer 1
3 P(Caif)-B0032 9.5
