LacI BioBrick Construction

Aims

  • To use PCR to extract lacI (promoter, ribosome-binding site (RBS) & coding sequence (CDS)) from plasmid pMutin4 and ligate into vector pSB1AT3 in front of red fluorescent protein (RFP).
  • To see whether the LacI insert is in the pSB1AT3 plasmid (same as yesterday).

Materials and Protocol

  • Performed a gel electrophoresis with remaining PCR products + Controls with same restriction digests.

Transformation

Miniprep

  • For this step the Qiagen Minipreps protocol was followed. The 7 colonies that grew on the plates from yesterday were cultured ovenight on a shaking shelf at 37°C in universal tubes.

Restriction digests

(we followed Wendy's cards/Phil's lab-book)
