- RE digest 516
- RE digest 517
Gel started 5:00 pm.
Results:
10/18/2010
Goals
- Send off for sequencing the minirep of colony a10
Colony PCR of hyb.ompa+aoxa+psb1a3, hyb.ompa+aoxb+psb1a3, hyb.ompa+RFP-F3R+psb1a3
2.5 uL of cells
11.75 uL H2O
5 uL GOTAQ 5X Reaction buffer
2.5 uL Hyb-F forward primer
2.5 uL Ompa-R reverse primer
.5 uL dNTP 10 mM - (thawed & kept on ice)
0.25 uL polymerase enzyme, TAQ
Total Volume= 25 uL
Picked four white colonies from each plate, added to 25uL water.
Plate | Microcentrifuge Tube Numbers |
psB1A3-aox1A (negative control, 10/17) | 1,2,3,4 |
psB1A3-aox1B-hybB-ompA (10/17) | 5,6,7,8 |
psB1A3-aox1A-hybB-ompA (10/17) | 9,10,11,12 |
psB1A3-hybB-ompA-RFP,F3R (10/17) | 13,14,15,16 |
Run gel on colony PCRS from above.
Lanes were run in order (1-16), with a 1KB ladder middle band (there was only 2uL of this left, so the ladder is faint).
Gel electrophoresis of Top and Bottom bands from 17 OCT 2010
Ladder | Top | Bottom (yes, both are very faint)
Ladder | Top | Bottom
Retransformation of Ligations from 10-16
Repeated heat shock transformations of ligations from 10-16-10.
Used 5uL of ligation reaction + 10uL of NB cells.
Plated 100uL of each on each plate.
See Protocols page for Heat Shock Transformation
10/19/2010
Goals
- reload colony pcrs from 10/18/2010 if need be (the ladder is faint, so if no interpretation is possible, then load again. otherwise no need to)
- Load digest the 2 digests of colony B5 hyb.ompa.aoxb.psb1a3 from 10.17.2010 (done)
- if they have the expected insert, send off for sequencing
- Load the pcrs from 10.17 of hyb-FR, aoxa-Fr, aoxb-FR, and rfp-F3R on a gel (done)
- pick (20) colonies of RFP-F3 from 10/18/2010 (done)
- after the colony pcr, add 3ml of LB instead of 250 ul. This will prepare us for minipreps tomorrow.
- Pick (20) colonies of aoxb (from 10.18/2010 plates) (done)
- after the colony pcr, add 3ml of LB instead of 250 ul. This will prepare us for minipreps tomorrow.
- try the ligation of hyb-rfp-psb1a3 , transform into NB or bl21
- transform the “sequenced” colonies (a10) into bl21
- miniprep of psb1C3 (done)
- Send colony a10 for sequencing (Christina)(to be done)
- grow up some more colony a10 from glycerol stock
Protocols
loading gel (done, Scott)
order:
exact ladder|aoxa-FR phusion pcr (10.17.2010)||aoxb-FR phusion pcr (10.17.2010)||hyb-FR phusion pcr (10.17.2010)||RFP-F3R phusion pcr (10.17.2010)|exact ladder| digest of miniprep of colony b5 (10.16 version) hyb.omp.aoxb.psb1a3 from 10.17.2010|digest of miniprep of colony b5 (10.17 version) hyb.omp.aoxb.psb1a3 from 10.17.2010
start 11:08 am
the pcrs appeared to work, but the digests do not contain the predicted band pattern.
Miniprep of psb1C3(Scott) (done)
See Protocols page for Plasmid DNA Purification with Mini Prep Kit
Prepare DNA to send off for sequencing.( Christina)(Scott)
In standard PCR tubes, prepare template DNA with just water and ONE primer (forward or reverse). The total volume should be 15 uL. The concentration of DNA in the sample should be adjusted to match the length of the template DNA; there is a chart in the Gaucher lab on the wall above the EtBr disposal bucket. For example, for a PCR product 1000 to 2000 bp in length, the concentration of the sample should be ~ 4 ng/uL.
Predicted size of hybB-ompA-aox1a: 1509 bp. Calculate concentration to be ~ 4 ng/uL
An email should be sent to Ryan with the following information:
Tube Label: actually written on the tube, in this form: RR01, RR02, etc.
DNA Name: this is something meaningful to us, like AOXa_construct_PSB1A3_vector_1
DNA Type: Purified PCR or Plasmid
DNA length: in bp

- look on list for any overlaps and missed items
- note: make glycerol stocks when doing minipreps

goals
- glycerol stocks of liquid cultures (done)
- repeat pcr from 10/20 checking the “good” colonies; the gel showed no predicted bands, but that may be due to pcr errors, elongation time etc. Try using aoxa/b f-r only, or try troubleshooting why the pcr did not make the 1.5 kb band
- miniprep liq cultures of confirmed colonies (Scott)(done)
- nanospec’ed
- send ones that are confirmed for sequencing
- digest the three inserts from 3 good colonies and ligate to psb1c3
- make sure to pcr purify the digest from yesrerday
- transform bl21 using hyb-rfp ligation
- transform bl21 using minipreps of good colonies
- check list for anything else!

prepare DNA to send off for sequencing.( Margo)
In standard PCR tubes, prepare template DNA with just water and ONE primer (forward or reverse). The total volume should be 15 uL. The concentration of DNA in the sample should be adjusted to match the length of the template DNA; there is a chart in the Gaucher lab on the wall above the EtBr disposal bucket. For example, for a PCR product 1000 to 2000 bp in length, the concentration of the sample should be ~ 4 ng/uL.
Predicted size of hybB-ompA-aox1a: 1509 bp. Calculate concentration to be (check sheet)

goals
- take pictures of the two plates labeled “hyb.rfp.psb1a3” before putting them into the 4c to track changes in colony color (Margo, Done)
- run digests from yesterday on gel - done (Christian, Margo)
- make lb+carb plates - done (Margo, Scott)
- using the transformations of the aoxa/b and rfp-f3r colonies as templates, resmear additional plates so that we can have distinct colonies as opposed to the lawns we have now - done (Margo)
Protocols
Making LB media (Margo, Scott)
To make 0.75 L LB (Lysogeny broth) medium:
3.75 g Yeast extract
7.5g Tryptone
3.75g NaCl
To make solid plates, follow the above recipe and add 16g agar per 1L (12 for .75 l)
Prepared 800 mL of LB media (50 ml extra)
750 ml for plates and 250ml liquid
Autoclave, leaving lids slightly loosened.
Let cool in water bath at 55C. (started 12 pm)
Add antibiotic (800uL carbenicillin) to 800 mL LB media used for plates.
For the agar plates, pipetted 25mL into each plate, allow to hardened on benchtop. Refrigerated and ready to go..
Note for others:
- For resmearing the plates of the transformation done 10.21.2010 (aox 3, 5a, 6a, aox b15 and b18, rfp f3 1, 11, 12, 19). Make sure to save ALL plates when done and put the ones from 10.21.2010 back into the 4c fridge! We are tracking the progress of red colonies on the rfp-f3 paltes
Made liquid cultures of colonies A3, A5, and R11 from cryostocks; in incubator ~ 1:15 p.m. (Margo)

Made liquid cultures of colonies of hyBb-RFP-psB1a3 in BL21. I picked 6 colonies from plate 1. #6 was already red by the time I started the culture, the rest were pinkish. I also picked 7 colonies from plate 2. #12 and #13 were already red, and the rest were pinkish by the time I started the culture.
The 13 tubes are in the 37 degrees incubator/ shaker in the other room.
How to prepares samples for microscopy (Look at table below)
1. In cold, growing for a couple of days.
Get a fresh plate...liquid of streaking of a colony.
2 or several plates for cold temperature. 1 will be left at cold until the last minute. the other one should be moved to warm a couple hours before we go to the scope.
2 other plates... put them in 37 and grow them overnight... (saturday night let them grow), sunday transfer them to the cold, one of these will stay in the cold until the last minute, and one will be moved to warm a couple hours before we image.
another plate... at 37 the whole time.. never goes to cold. - do this on sunday preferably.
Once we have new plates that have been streaked with colonies from liquid culture on Saturday night, prepare the following samples: (I explaine this to Scott. If he’s not here, call him or me!)
Plate | When you have to move plates to new temperature | Conditions |
|
1 |
| Leave in fridge (4 degrees) until we image |
|
2 | Sunday night | Leave in 4 degrees until the last person leaves on Sunday night, put in 37 degrees incubator. |
|
3 | Monday morning | Leave in 4 degrees until Monday morning at 7 am, put in 37 degrees |
|
4 | Monday morning | Leave in 4 degrees until Monday morning at 8 am, put in 37 degrees |

5 | sunday day time | Leave in 37 degrees overnight (Saturday), move to cold on Sunday (daytime). Leave in cold until we image |
|
6 | Sunday day time, sunday night | Leave in 37 degrees overnight (Saturday), move to cold on Sunday (daytime). Move back to 37 sunday night before you leave. |
|
7 | Sunday night, monday morning | Leave in 37 degrees overnight (Saturday), move to cold on Sunday (daytime). Move to 37 at 7 am on Monday morning |
