JV quantified the amount of DNA in gels run to date using ImageJ software. Results to be posted in working plasmids box.

Objective: Transform plasmids into DH5α
Method: Follow competent cell transformation protocol to transform the following:
From our ligations:

  • pLacI-sRBS-Lumazine-dT
  • pLacI-sRBS-Lumazine-dT
  • mms6 (A6)
  • mms6 (B6)
  • xylE (C4)
  • xylE (B4)

From the 2010 Parts Distribution:

  • ECFP (Bba_E0020)
  • EYFP (Bba_E0030)
  • BglII Endonuclease (Bba_K112106)

(In Lab: JV)

Objective: Isolate plasmid DNA of RBS-xylE (BBa_J33204) from DH5α cells and confirm results.

Method: "Mini-prep" the plasmid DNA using boiling lysis miniprep. Then restrict the DNA once and run on a 1% agarose gel (TAE).

Conclusions: Plasmid DNA prep and restriction was successful.

Objective: Ligate rbs-xylE (Bba_J33204) to our double terminator, and insert it into the pSB1T3 plasmid backbone.
Method:

  • Restrictions
    • Restrict rbs-xylE wit EcoRI and SpeI (Red Buffer)
    • Restrict the double terminator with XbaI and PstI (Tango Buffer)
    • Restrict pSB1T3 with EcoRI and PstI (Red Buffer)
    Set up reactions as follows:
    ComponentVolume (µL)
    MilliQ H2O15.5

    • Buffer - 2µL
    • pDNA - 2µL

    Incubated reactions for 65 minutes at 37oC
    Killed enzymes by incubating reactions for 10 minutes at 65oC

  • Ligation

    • T4 DNA ligase - 0.25µL
    • rbs-xylE - 5µL
    • dT - 3µL
    • pSB1T3 - 8µL
    • 10x Ligation Buffer - 2µL
    • MilliQ H2O - 1.75µL
    Incubated reactions overnight at room temperature (total of 19.5 hours)
    Killed enzymes by incubating reactions for 10 minutes at 80oC</ul>

    June 2/2010 - Evening

    Objective: Set up new ligations of pLacI and sRBS-Lum-dT according to Tom Knight's protocol. Previous ligation had very little DNA.
    Relevant Information:

    • Want a final mass of 25ng of each pDNA in the ligation mix.
    • Final concentration of pDNA in restriction digest should be 25-50ng/µL.
    • Tom Knight's restriction reaction is 50µL, therefore there should be 1000ng pDNA in each restriction digest.
    • Identified the following plasmids in our working plasmids box:
    Common NameLocationConcentration (ng/µL)Volume/rxn (µL)
    pLacI MaxiprepA9990~1
    pLacI (B1)A6440~2
    sRBS-Lum-dT (2)A1965~1
    sRBS-Lum-dT (1)A21145~1
    sRBS-Lum-dT MaxiprepB84780~.2
    sRBS-Lum-dTB74375~.25
    sRBS-Lum-dT (1)G2335~3
    sRBS-Lum-dT (2)G3965~2
    • Make a 1:10 dilution of sRBS-Lum-dt maxiprep (D8) and sRBS-Lum-dT (B7). 0.5µL pDNA in 4.5µL water.
    • Cut pLacI with EcoRI and SpeI
    • Cut sRBS-Lum-dT with XbaI and PstI
    • Cut pSB1T3 with EcoRI and PstI
    • Will have total of 12 ligation reactions, want 12x2µL of pSB1T3 to add to each, therefore want 25µL of pSB1T3.

    Method:

    Incubate for 30 minutes at 37oC (Start- 12:10pm; End- 12:40pm)
    Heat kill enzymes at 80oC for 20 minutes

    Ligation:
    In a 10µL final volume, add:

    • 2µL of sRBS-Lum-dT component
    • 2µL of pLacI component
    • 2µL of pSB1T3 component
    • 1µL of T4 Buffer
    • 0.25µL of T4 DNA Ligase
    • 2.75µL of MilliQ H2O

    Incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature to ligate
