Incertion of Promoter + RBS in pSB3T5

Done by: Christian and Louise

Parts used: J13002 (promoter+RBS) and pSB3T5

Restriction and Gel extraction

Protocol: [RD1.1]

Notes: We made 2 Restriction mixtures which both were 4 times the mixture in the protocol. We also added 10 ul less water and 10 ul more PCR product than discribed in the protocol

Restriction mixture
- 38 ul Water
- 4 ul EcoRI enzyme
- 4 ul PstI enzyme
- 8 ul Fast Digest green buffer

- 30 ul PCR product (Freeze tube white 25 PROMOTER + RBS)
OR
- 30 ul PCR product (Freeze tube white 29 PLASMID)

Loading:
2 x 21 ul J13002 was loaded on a 2% gel with a 100-1000bp ladder. The Restricted J13002 is 95bp.
2 x 21 ul pSB3T5 was loaded on a 1.5% gel with a 100-10,000 ladder. The restristricted plasmid is 3215bp.

Result:

The picture shows a band around 100bp.

The picture showes two bands, one around 3000bp which is the plasmid and one around 1000bp, which is RFP.

Purification of J13002 and pSB3T5

Protocol:
Notes: four tubes were marked and weighed (all had a mass of 1g). Bands were cut from the restriction gels, added to the tubes and weighed.

Tubes	1P (Plasmid)	2P	3B (Brick)	4B
Tube weight	1g	1g	1g	1g
Gel weight	170mg	110mg	245mg	160mg

Sample capture: 300 ul Capture buffer type 3 was added to the tubes and the tubes were placed at 60 degrees for 20 minutes.
Sample binding:The Capture buffer sample mix were added to MicroSpin Columns, stood for 1 minute and centrifuged for 30 sec. at 16,000g.

The Wash and Dry was carried out according to the protocol.
Elution: 10 ul Elution buffer type 6 was added to the columns, stood for 1 minute and centrifuged for 1 minute at 16,000g. The columns were thrown out and NanoDroped.

NanoDrop:

Tube	Concentration (ng/ul)
1P	9.6
2P	2.9
3B	6.7
4B	3.2

The Concentrations were quite low, but we pooled them (1P+2P and 3B+4B) and used them for ligation.

Ligation of J13002 promotor rbs into pSB3T5 assembly plasmid.

Start date: 26/7
Methods: Restriction Digest, Gel Extraction, Ligation, Transformation (not done by me) and colony pcr
Protocols: CP1.3, LG1.3, RD1.1, DE1.3

Restriction digest, Gel extracton and ligation of BBa_J13002 and pSB1C3

Date: 27/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: Restriction digest, Gel extraction, ligation and transformation (not by me)
protocos: RD1.1, DE1.3, LG1.3

Restriction digest using EcoRI and PstI and gel extraction were done following protocol. at beginning of ligation concentrations were: 3.7ng/ul part at 95BP and 8ng/ul plasmid at 3215BP. four tubes were run, 1 at 3:1 ration, two at 6:1 and one at 9:1. iGEM consensus protocol was followed, with 20ng vector as starting point. Tubes were cooled for transformations in the morning.

Results: Quite low concentrations were reached, but the iGEM protocol should ensure the same molar ratio and total concentration as was planned for.

Analysis: Everything is going according to plan for now.

colony PCR using taq on ligated BBa_J13002 in pSB1C3

Date: 28/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: colony pcr
protocos: CP1.3

Colony pcr was run on 8 colonies, and plates were streaked and incubated at 37° ON. protocol was followed to point, with enzyme added to mix. PErhaps too little colony was scraped of original plates, and some tubes were defective, letting out steam during pcr.

Results: A band showed at around 300bp in well 4.1. The expected length was 312bp. wells3.3 and 3.4 show a band outside the blue ladder, that could be rfp (since this was the original insert.) tube 3.2 was ruined.

Analysis: Well 3.2 shows promising results. ON and miniprep will be made, and it will be sent for sequencing.

The image shows a 2% gel where a 100-1000bp marker was loaded together with FlhDC mut, Double terminator and Promoter+RBS. 5 ul sample and 5 ul loading dye was loaded.
The FlhDC mut lane shows 4 bands. The heaviest band is about 1000bp which consists with the FlhDC gene length. The three other bands are between 100 and 250bp which means they are too small to be FlhD or FlhC fragments (ca. 400-500bp) and they are too big to be primers.
The FlhDC mut PCR samples were pooled and all of it was run on an extraction gel.

PCR of FlhDC freeze tube 23

Done by: Louise
Date: july 29th
Protcol: CP1.1
Notes: Since the PCR of freeze tube 31 shoved pour results on the gel, we are now trying another sample (freeze tube 23) This is made from sample 14 and 16 (mutation PCR samples). The gel picture from these samples showed the strongest band in the samples run with annealing temperature of 64.5 celcius.

Results: The PCR result was pooled in freeze tube 49.

The picture shows a clear band at 200bp and smear. The FlhDC gene of 986bp is not seen on the gel.

Checking if Pst1 site in FlhDC mut is not pressent

Done by: Louise
Date: july 30th
Protocol:RD1.1
Notes: Two restrictions were made, one with native flhDC containing the Pst1 site (Freeze tube 13) and one with FlhDC mut which should not have a Pst1 site (freeze tube 49).
Restriction mixture:
13 ul water
1 ul Pst1 enzyme
2 ul FD green Buffer
5 ul PCR product
Results:
The result of this Pst1 test was very pour, and is redone later with other samples.

--Louch07 07:26, 5 August 2010 (UTC) The gel was 1.5% and a 100-1000 ladder was used.

All samples were incubated at 17 degrees until they were used for transformation.

Follow-up colony PCR

Date: 26/7
Methods: Colony PCR
Protocol: CP1.3
Experiment done by: Maria, LC

Notes: We made a sample for every plate from the last colony PCR. Out of the 29 samples we could only run 25 at once in the PCR machine. Plate 23 was missing, so there is no sample for it.

Results:

Lengths of PCR products:
1200: 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 14, 21, 26
1500: 13
1750: 2
1900: 8, 25
2000: 3, 7, 12, 18, 19, 24
2200: 20
2500: 11, 17
Colonies 1, 15, 16 and 22 gave no result.

Analysis: Since we had so many different lengths, we will cut one from each length, specifically colony: 2, 8, 11, 13, 20, 24, 26.

Restriction digest of PCR product from 26/7

Date: 26/7
Methods: Restriction digest
Protocol: RD1.1
Experiment done by: Maria, LC

Notes: We took one of each length PCR product and cut them with XbaI and PstI. The especially interesting one was sample 26, since we suspected it to be a succesful ligation. If it is FlhD,C we would expect it to get cut like this:

We loaded the cut and uncut sample next to each other. They got loaded as follows and RFP was used as a control:

Lane	Sample	Cut/Uncut
1	2	c
2	2	u
3	8	c
4	8	u
5	11	c
6	11	u
7	13	c
8	20 (loading error)	u
9	20	c
10	13 (loading error)	u
11	24	c
12	24	u
13	26	c
14	26	u
15	7(RFP)	c
16	7(RFP)	u

Results:

Analysis: Sample 26 looks very close to the right lengths, so we will prepare some of the 1200 BP length PCR products for sequencing.

Miniprep of follow-up colony PCR

Date: 27/7
Methods: ON, Miniprep
Protocol: MP1.1
Experiment done by: LC

Notes: Samples L4, L5, L6, L9, L10, L14, L21 and L26 (L for ligation from the follow-up colony PCR) miniprepped and NinaB samples from the 4 frozen cultures of it.

Results:
All ligations were around the same length, just under 2000 BP. Even though the correct length should have been about 1000 BP longer, this is not surprising since uncut plasmids often show 1000 BP less in length. NinaB was also too short and there was a second band showing higher up in the gel (weird!). The concentrations averaged around 80ng/ul for the samples.

Analysis: We decided to do a new miniprep where we start with a higher concentrated overnight culture, which we will achieve through boosting the ON before doing the miniprep.

Restriction digest of PCR product from 26/7

start date: 27/7
Methods: Restriction digest, gel electrophoresis
Protocol:RD1.1
Experiment done by: Maria, LC

Notes:
All colonies with PCR products of 1200bp (see Follow up coloni PCR) was digested with XbaI and PstI.
Coloni #4,5,6,9,10,14 and 21 was selected.
Digested RFP PCR product (#6 from Coloni PCR) was used as controle.
If it is FlhD,C we would expect it to get cut like this:

Digested samples were loaded along with undigested ones. Samples were loaded onto a 2% gel. Hyper ladder 2 was used as marker.
Loading scheme:

Lane	Sample	Cut/Uncut
1	4	c
2	4	u
3	5	c
4	5	u
5	6	c
6	6	u
7	9	c
8	9	u
9	10	c
10	10 (loading error)	u
11	14	c
12	14	u
13	21	c
14	21	u
15	6(RFP)	c
16	6(RFP)	u

Results:
gel electrophoresis:

Analysis:
The lanes containing digested PCR product from coloni #5, 6 and 21 have a band smear around 100-200bp,and a band at around 800bp.
This may indicate correct inserted flhD/C.
ON cultures are made of each of these colonies to use for boost Miniprep.

Miniprep of ligation plasmids

start date: 27/7
Methods: miniprep, gel electrophoresis, nanodrop
Protocol:MP1.3
Experiment done by: LC

Notes:
Miniprep was made of ON cultures of coloni #5,6 and 21 (see Follow up coloni PCR)
Samples were loaded onto a 1.5% agarose gel. Gener ruler DNA ladder mix was used as marker.
Loading scheme:

Lane	sample
1	#5
2	#6
3	#21

Results:
Gel electrophoresis:

Analysis:
we have purified the plasmids.The concentrations are high but not as high as expected when the cells are boosted prior to the miniprep.
In order to obtain an even higher concentration transfer all 5mL ON culture to 20mL pre heated LB media. run all 25mL new culture as 1 miniprep.
Due to the low concentrations we need to dry down our samples before they are ready for sequentation.

Digestion and gel extraction of pSB3C5 and J13002

Done by: Pernille

Date: the 26th of july

Protocol: [RD1.1] and gelpurificaton (DE1.3)

Notes:because the concentration for both plasmid and biobrick is rather small I dobbelt the volumen of the reagent compared to the protocol. in the soultion contaning the brick the volumen of the PCR product was triple and to adjust the total volumen i added 5ul less water. We made 2 Restriction mixtures which both were 4 times the mixture in the protocol. both the plasmid and brick was cut at the E and P site. After the cutting the plasmid and brick was run on seperate gels because of there different size. the plasmid on a 1,5% gel and brick on a 2% agarose gel. When I observed the gel under the UV lamp the was no visible band on the gel were the brick was loaded. therefore it was only possible to do DNA extrated from the gel contraining the plasmid. The Dna was eluted in 10ul of water and I eluted two times. The DNA concentration was measured on the NaonDrop and was found to 55,41ng/ul for the first elution and 28,03ng/ul for the second. the to samples are pooled and stored in a freeze tube.

Colony PCR and extraction of ninaB gene from transformants

Start date: 24/7
Methods: colony pcr, fermentas fast digest
Protocols: CP1.3, RD1.1

Colony PCR on transformants using ninaB fwd and rw primers

Date: 24/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: Colony PCR
protocos: CP1.3

Primers were prepared by ellution to 100uM for storage, and again by a factor 10 for the reaction. 10 wells were loaded, and their colonies were streaked.

Annealing temperature set to 55°C and elongation set to 2 minutes, otherwise standard taq protocol was followed.

Results:_Expected length at 1920 BP did not show. In fact no bands showed, except somethin like a primer smear around 100bp.

Analysis: Anealing temperature might have been set to high, as the primers were constructed to aneal at 55°. another run will be done on miniprepped plasmids, with a different program.

Restriction digest on miniprepped pOT2 plasmids with ninaB insert using EcoRI

Date: 27/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: Restriction digest
protocos: RD1.1

A restriction digest was carried out to determine the length of the pOT2 plasmid and insert. protocol was followed to point, using miniprep as template dna.

Results: strange things going on at different lengths, and nothing matches the expected length of about 3800BP.

Analysis: Another digest is needed to show that plasmid length is wrong, as it seems unlikely with comercial plasmids.

Restriction digest on miniprepped pOT2 plasmids with ninaB insert using EcoRI and XhoI

Date: 28/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: Restriction digest
protocos: RD1.1

A restriction digest was carried out to determine the length of the pOT2 plasmid and insert. protocol was followed to point, using miniprep as template dna. Both XhoI and EcoRI were used, as these were the enyzmes originally used to create insert and cut plasmid for ligation according to [http://www.fruitfly.org/EST/faq.html#gh-zapii fruitfly] under the GH section, which our pOT2 plasmids falls under. protocol was followed to point, except for the digest running for 2 hours.

results: Digest showed a band close to the 3.8kb marker expected for the full length plasmid, concurrent with only one digest working. (although an earlier digest with EcoRI alone showed a different band.) Miniprepped plasmid had also "moved up" the ladder

analysis: Something fishy is up with this plasmid, and the digest. one more will be run only using XhoI.

Restriction digest on miniprepped pOT2 plasmids with ninaB insert using EcoRI and XhoI

Date: 28/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: Restriction digest
protocos: RD1.1

A restriction digest was carried out to determine the length of the pOT2 plasmid and insert. protocol was followed to point, using miniprep as template dna. XhoI was used as cutting enzyme, and digest was allowed to run for 30 mins.There were problems with the first gells, so a second gel was run.

results: Gel showed a band between 3.5K and 4k markers, consistent with earlier results, indicating that the plasmid and insert have correct length. Strangely the cut segment has traveled further through the gell than the un-cut control.

analysis: There realy is something fishy going on, or as we say in Denmark, there are owls in the marsh. At least the plasmid seems correct.

PCR on RD products from above experiments

Date: 29/7
Done by: Christian
Methods: Gradient taq pcr
protocos: CP1.3 (using gradient program)

Notes: 7 small eppendorff tubes were loaded of each product. Protocol for 25ul taq reaction was followed, with out changes other than the gradient programme. One tube (XE7) was tipped and might have spilled a bit of the mix. The gradient temperatures were the same for each corresponding tube in the three series: E cut with ecoRI, XE cut with both, and X cut with XhoI. Temperatures were from 45-65 degrees. The rest of the program was identical to protocol, with a 2 minute runtime. Custom ninaB primers were used.

Results: PCR products were run on a 1% agarose gel, with hyperladder II. A band was expected at 1920BP. A weak bands showed at the correct location in almost all wells (Except the spilled tube). Smears showed in E2 and 3. The clearest bands were at temperatures around 60-65 degrees.

We have succesfully shown that our primers will generate a band at our expected length, albeit a very weak one. Perhaps it takes some luck for the reaction to get started. We hope to repeat the experiment with pfu, to get a good product for ligation. We don't know if the cutting has made the difference between this round of pcr and the one performed a couple of days earlier, or if other factors, like the gradient have played in.

Taq PCR of photosensor in pUC19

Date: 29/7
Done by: Maria
Methods: Taq PCR, gel electrophoresis
protocos: CP1.3

Notes:
To ensure that the photosensor is inserted in pUC19 a taq PCR using the DNA (tube 40 white) as template and VF2 and VR as primers.
1uL template is used pr. PCR reaktion (2 PCR reaction are prepared)
Premix:

10x taq buffer	7.5uL
MgCl2	3uL
VF2	3uL
VR	3uL
dNTP's	1.5uL
H20	52.5uL
taq polymerase	1uL

H2O normally used to lyse the colonies are used in the premix.
PCR tubes are marked PS2.A-B
Taq PCR program:

start	94C	2min
denaturating	94C	1min
annealing	55C	1min
elongation	72C	3min
go to	2	29x
end	72C	3min
hold	4C

PCR samples are loaded onto a 1% agarose gel. Gene ruler DNA ladder mix (red) is used as marker.

Results:

Analysis:
Two weak bands at app. 4500bp and 850bp respectively. The upper band could correspond to the pKJ606 plasmid with insert, and the lower band might indicate VF2-VR without insert, rendering these results rather inconlclusive. Therefore an ON culture for miniprep was made.

+==== Ligation of J13002 promotor rbs into pSB3T5 assembly plasmid. ====
+Start date: 26/7<br>
+Methods: Restriction Digest, Gel Extraction, Ligation, Transformation (not done by me) and colony pcr<br>
+Protocols: CP1.3, LG1.3, RD1.1, DE1.3
+==== Restriction digest, Gel extracton and ligation of BBa_J13002 and pSB1C3 ====
+Date: 27/7<br>
+Done by: Christian<br>
+Methods: Restriction digest, Gel extraction, ligation and transformation (not by me)<br>
+protocos: RD1.1, DE1.3, LG1.3
+<br><br>
+Restriction digest using EcoRI and PstI and gel extraction were done following protocol. at beginning of ligation concentrations were: 3.7ng/ul part at 95BP and 8ng/ul plasmid at 3215BP. four tubes were run, 1 at 3:1 ration, two at 6:1 and one at 9:1. iGEM consensus protocol was followed, with 20ng vector as starting point. Tubes were cooled for transformations in the morning.
+<br><br>
+Results: Quite low concentrations were reached, but the iGEM protocol should ensure the same molar ratio and total concentration as was planned for.<br><br>
+Analysis: Everything is going according to plan for now.
+==== colony PCR using taq on ligated BBa_J13002 in pSB1C3 ====
+Date: 28/7<br>
+Done by: Christian<br>
+Methods: colony pcr<br>
+protocos: CP1.3
+<br><br>
+Colony pcr was run on 8 colonies, and plates were streaked and incubated at 37° ON. protocol was followed to point, with enzyme added to mix. PErhaps too little colony was scraped of original plates, and some tubes were defective, letting out steam during pcr.
+<br><br>
+Results: A band showed at around 300bp in well 4.1. The expected length was 312bp. wells3.3 and 3.4 show a band outside the blue ladder, that could be rfp (since this was the original insert.) tube 3.2 was ruined.<br>
+[[Image:Team-sdu-denmark-Promotor_Rbs_i_psb3t5_colonipcr.jpg | 300px]]
+<br><br>
+Analysis: Well 3.2 shows promising results. ON and miniprep will be made, and it will be sent for sequencing.<br><br>

+=== Miniprep of follow-up colony PCR ===
+Date: 27/7<br>
+Methods: ON, Miniprep<br>
+Protocol: MP1.1<br>
+Experiment done by: LC
+<br><br>
+Notes: Samples L4, L5, L6, L9, L10, L14, L21 and L26 (L for ligation from the follow-up colony PCR) miniprepped and NinaB samples from the 4 frozen cultures of it. <br><br>
+Results: [[Image:Team-SDU-Denmark-miniprep277.jpg|600px]]<br>
+All ligations were around the same length, just under 2000 BP. Even though the correct length should have been about 1000 BP longer, this is not surprising since uncut plasmids often show 1000 BP less in length. NinaB was also too short and there was a second band showing higher up in the gel (weird!). The concentrations averaged around 80ng/ul for the samples.
+<br><br>
+Analysis:  We decided to do a new miniprep where we start with a higher concentrated overnight culture, which we will achieve through boosting the ON before doing the miniprep.

+''Protocol:'' [[https://2010.igem.org/Team:SDU-Denmark/protocols#RD1.1 RD1.1]] and gelpurificaton (DE1.3)<br><br>
+''Notes:''because the concentration for both plasmid and biobrick is rather small I dobbelt the volumen of the reagent compared to the protocol. in the soultion contaning the brick the volumen of the PCR product was triple and to adjust the total volumen i added 5ul less water.  We made 2 Restriction mixtures which both were 4 times the mixture in the protocol. both the plasmid and brick was cut at the E and P site. After the cutting the plasmid and brick was run on seperate gels because of there different size. the plasmid on a 1,5% gel and brick on a 2% agarose gel. When I observed the gel under the UV lamp the was no visible band on the gel were the brick was loaded. therefore it was only possible to do DNA extrated from the gel contraining the plasmid. The Dna was eluted in 10ul of water and I eluted two times. The DNA concentration was measured on the NaonDrop and was found to 55,41ng/ul for the first elution and 28,03ng/ul for the second. the to samples are pooled and stored in a freeze tube.<br><br>

+Methods: Restriction digest<br>
+protocos: RD1.1
+<br><br>
+A restriction digest was carried out to determine the length of the pOT2 plasmid and insert. protocol was followed to point, using miniprep as template dna. Both XhoI and EcoRI were used, as these were the enyzmes originally used to create insert and cut plasmid for ligation according to [http://www.fruitfly.org/EST/faq.html#gh-zapii fruitfly] under the GH section, which our pOT2 plasmids falls under. protocol was followed to point, except for the digest running for 2 hours.
+<br><br>
+results: Digest showed a band close to the 3.8kb marker expected for the full length plasmid, concurrent with only one digest working. (although an earlier digest with EcoRI alone showed a different band.) Miniprepped plasmid had also "moved up" the ladder<br>
+[[Image:Team-SDU-Denmark-NinaB restriction digest with eco and xho-1.jpg | 300px ]]
+<br><br>
+analysis: Something fishy is up with this plasmid, and the digest. one more will be run only using XhoI.

+Methods: Restriction digest<br>
+protocos: RD1.1
+<br><br>
+A restriction digest was carried out to determine the length of the pOT2 plasmid and insert. protocol was followed to point, using miniprep as template dna. XhoI was used as cutting enzyme, and digest was allowed to run for 30 mins.There were problems with the first gells, so a second gel was run.
+<br><br>
+results: Gel showed a band between 3.5K and 4k markers, consistent with earlier results, indicating that the plasmid and insert have correct length. Strangely the cut segment has traveled further through the gell than the un-cut control.<br>

+<br><br>
+analysis: There realy is something fishy going on, or as we say in Denmark, there are owls in the marsh. At least the plasmid seems correct.<br><br>

+Date: 29/7<br>
+Done by: Christian<br>
+Methods: Gradient taq pcr<br>
+protocos: CP1.3 (using gradient program)
+<br><br>
+Notes: 7 small eppendorff tubes were loaded of each product. Protocol for 25ul taq reaction was followed, with out changes other than the gradient programme. One tube (XE7) was tipped and might have spilled a bit of the mix.
+The gradient temperatures were the same for each corresponding tube in the three series: E cut with ecoRI, XE cut with both, and X cut with XhoI. Temperatures were from 45-65 degrees. The rest of the program was identical to protocol, with a 2 minute runtime. Custom ninaB primers were used.
+<br><br>
+Results: PCR products were run on a 1% agarose gel, with hyperladder II. A band was expected at 1920BP. A weak bands showed at the correct location in almost all wells (Except the spilled tube). Smears showed in E2 and 3. The clearest bands were at temperatures around 60-65 degrees.
+<br><br>
+We have succesfully shown that our primers will generate a band at our expected length, albeit a very weak one. Perhaps it takes some luck for the reaction to get started. We hope to repeat the experiment with pfu, to get a good product for ligation. We don't know if the cutting has made the difference between this round of pcr and the one performed a couple of days earlier, or if other factors, like the gradient have played in.
