... and following ligation (2,5 µl Insert, 5,5 µl vector, 1 µl T4 DNA Ligase, 1 µl T4 DNA Ligase Buffer (10x), 40 minutes, RT) were performed according to the standard protocol. After the transformation (with XL1B) the cells were plated and put into the 37°C room.
 +
Two additional transformations were performed with ligations from Volker labeled: "ligation viral brick 453 empty" & "viral brick 587 empty". <br>

The following day the plates were checked for clones. Unfortunately there grew no clones on these two plates contrary to my plate with a a lot of clones.

<p style="font-size:13px; color:red;"> CD clone 1 yielded to bands around 2500 bp to 3000 bp. Since the vector was cut only using EcoRI and SpeI, it was expected to be linearized, not to be cut into two fragments this size. Therefore, this sample was discarded and cloning was continued using CD clone 2. </p><br />

5 µL Laemmli buffer was added to 20 µL sample. Samples were incubated at 95°C for 8 minutes and loaded onto a SDS gel (10 %). SDS PAGE was performed at 90 V (collection gel) resp. 120 V (separation gel). <br/>

150. labday 15.10.2010

Cloning CFP (from P666: PSB1C3_CFP) into pSB1C3_leftITR_CMV_beta-globin (P729)

Investigator Patrick
Digestions, 2 h 10 minutes, 37 °C:

  • P666: 5 µl DNA, 2 µl BSA, 2 µl Buffer 4 (10x), 1 µl Xba, 1 µl PstI, 9 µl H2O
  • P729: 4 µl DNA, 2 µl BSA, 2 µl Buffer 4 (10x), 1 µl SpeI, 1 µl PstI, 10 µl H2O

Expected results for the 1% agarose gel:

  • P666: about 2100 and 750 bp
  • P729: about 3300 and 20 bp


Freiburg10 1015pat fertig.jpg



The gelextraction ...

P728: 11,8 ng/µl
P822: 34,6 ng/µl

... and following ligation (2,5 µl Insert, 5,5 µl vector, 1 µl T4 DNA Ligase, 1 µl T4 DNA Ligase Buffer (10x), 40 minutes, RT) were performed according to the standard protocol. After the transformation (with XL1B) the cells were plated and put into the 37°C room. Two additional transformations were performed with ligations from Volker labeled: "ligation viral brick 453 empty" & "viral brick 587 empty".

The following day the plates were checked for clones. Unfortunately there grew no clones on these two plates contrary to my plate with a a lot of clones.

RNA harvesting

Investigator: Kira
After transfection, the cells were incubated for 48 hours. Today, the cells will be harvested and RNA extracted, in order to perform RT-PCR and an additional PCR for evaluation of promoter activity.

The transfected cells were trypsinised and centrifuged for 2 min. The supernatant was discarded and pellet washed 2x with PBS. RNeasy Kit [Qiagen] was used for RNA extraction according to the manufacturer protocol.

quantitative real-time PCR for detection of virus titer

Investigator: Achim

  • qPCR of harvested virus particles to determine the virus titers of our different constructs
  • Total number of samples: 58

Test-digestion of pSB1C3_lITR_phTERT_betaglobin_mGMK_TK30_hGH_rITR_SDM-PstI clone 1, 2 and 3 (P877, 878 and 879)

Investigator Patrick

Check the plasmid for leftITR: 0,5 µl EcoRI, 1 µl BstEII, 7 µl DNA, 2 µl Buffer 4, 2 µl BSA, 7,5 µl H2O, 45 minutes 37°C, 45 minutes 60°C

Check the plasmid for hGH_rITR and ... : 0,5 µl AgeI, 0,5 µl PstI, 3 µl DNA, 1 µl BSA, 1 µl Buffer 4, 4 µl H2O, 70 minutes 37°C

Expected results:

  • leftITR: about 190 bp
  • hGH_rITR: about 670 bp


Unfortunately the digestions had to be reapeated because i didnt switch on the current so the samples and especially the 1kb GeneRuler marker diffused.

Ultrafiltration
Ultrafiltration of CFP_MiddleLinker_VP2/3 containing virus particles and 587-BAP virus particles were concentrated via Vivaspin-Ultrafiltration:

  • 20 mL virus containing cell culture supernatant was added to GE Vivaspin 20 filter and centrifuged with 4000 g at 15°C until 750 - 1000 µL was left-
  • 5 mL Bis-Trus buffer (pH 6) was added and centrifuged again with 4000 g at 15°C (washing).
  • This step was repeated 3 more times.
  • Membrane was carefully resuspended and cleared. Suspension was transfered to low-binding eppi and centrifuged with 10000 g for 10 minutes at 15°C.
  • Supernatant was transfered to new low-binding eppi and again centrifuged with 10000 g for 10 minutes at 15°C.
  • Supernatant was transfered to new low-binding eppi and stored at 4°C over night. To do: ÄKTA chromatography.

SDS PAGE and Coomassie staining

Investigator: Hanna

Prior to performing Western Blot we decided to investigate running behaviour of different samples.

  • 1. Cell debris (control)
  • 2. Cell debris containing virus particles
  • 3. Concentrated virus stock (containing CFP_MiddleLinker_VP2/3)
  • 4. ÄKTA purified virus stock: Fraction 6
  • 5. ÄKTA purified virus stock: Fraction 7
  • 6. Benzonase treated, ÄKTA purified virus stock: Fraction 7
  • 7. Benzonase treated, ÄKTA purified virus stock: Fraction 8


5 µL Laemmli buffer was added to 20 µL sample. Samples were incubated at 95°C for 8 minutes and loaded onto a SDS gel (10 %). SDS PAGE was performed at 90 V (collection gel) resp. 120 V (separation gel).
Gel was put into Coomassie dye, heated for 30 seconds in microwave and incubated for 1 hours shaking.
Gel was decolorized in acetic acid (20%).
