Today we checked for transformants from the filamentous ''Bacillus subtilis'' transformation (with pMutin4) we performed yesterday.
-
 
+
-
===Aims===
+
-
The aim of these experiments is to ligate the promoters hyperspankoid, pspacoid and hyperspank in front of ''rfp'' on  the pSB1C3 plasmid seperately. In order to do this, the first step is to amplify the three promoter sequences and the pSB1C3 plasmid using Phusion PCR.

Please refer to [[Team:Newcastle/PCR#Phusion_PCR| Phusion PCR]] for Phusion PCR protocol.

We checked our transformants under the light microscope, expecting to see a non-filamentous phenotype since the cells had not been induced with IPTG. The resutls were as expected.

Checking for transformants

Today we checked for transformants from the filamentous Bacillus subtilis transformation (with pMutin4) we performed yesterday.

We checked our transformants under the light microscope, expecting to see a non-filamentous phenotype since the cells had not been induced with IPTG. The resutls were as expected.
