Nina

Continuation of protein purification

I got help with the plugged drop column and got the fractions I needed of the lysis, wash and elution buffers.

These samples of 0.5 ml were stored in a freezer for running on an SDS gel.

Removal of insertion in BioBrick suffixes

Plasmid prep

From 8/10 stored pellet

  • 50 μl elution buffer.
DNA concentration
Sample Conc [ng/μl] A260/A280
pSB1C3.SOD 163.1 1.94

Digestion

10X FastDigest buffer 2
DNA (1 μg) 12.3
dH2O 3.7
FD EcoRI 1
FD SpeI 1
  20 μl
  • Incubation: 37 °C, 30 min

Gel verification

Gel verification of pSB1C3.SOD digested with EcoRI and SpeI.
3 μl λ; 3 μl sample.
λ = O'GeneRuler 1 kb DNA ladder

1 % agarose, 140 V

Expected bands

  • Vector: 2175 bp
  • Insert: 495 bp

Results
Band slightly larger than expected, but this may also be due to bound restriction enzymes and/or other disturbances. Proceeded to gel extraction.

Gel extraction

Digested pSB1C3.SOD separated on 1 % agarose gel at 110 V, 17 μl sample volume. SOD band extracted and DNA, as well as DNA from samples stored in -20 °C 7/10, were purified using the E.Z.N.A. Gel Extraction kit.

DNA measurements extremely low, but proceeded to ligation/cloning anyway.

Transformation

  • Mod. quick transformation
    • Top10
    • 3 μl ligation mix
    • 30 min incubation on ice



Mimmi

SOD activity assay

  • Nondenaturing gel electrophoresis
    • Staining with NBT


  • SOD activity test with enzyme producing O2-
    • mix 750µl culture with 600µl ice cold ethanol:chloroform (5:3)
    • vortex 20s, incubate 3min, vortex again 20s
    • centrifuge at 2500g for 45min in 4°C
    • keep supernatant on ice
mix

  • Measure A546 for 10min at 25°C


  • xanthine oxidase activity ajusted to increase in A546 0.1 U/min
phosphate buffer 50mM
EDTA 5mM
bovine serum albumin 40mg/l
NBT 0.2g/l
xanthine + oxidase 0.1mM



  • SOD activity test with illumination
mix
riboflavin 1.17*10-6M
  • Illuminate so the absorbance increases with 0.142U/6min
  • A560 linear increase with time
methionine 0.01M
sodium cyanide 2*10-5M
NBT 5.6*10-5M
potassium phosphate 0.05M

Ligation

his-bFGF and bFGF-his into gel purified pEX, both insert and vector cut with XbaI and PstI

7 µl insert, 0,5 µl pEX

1 µl ligase T4

2 µl 10x buffer

9,5 µl H2O

1 h 37 °C

Transformation

3 µl of both pEX + his-bFGF and pEX + bFGF-his into top10 cells

Overnight culture

Made overnight culture from 10 colonies of tat-bFGF-his which didnt seem to be cut last time
