| - | These primers were ordered as a solution to the problem we encountered before we were about to attempt carry out the Gibson protocol for the Subtilin Immunity (and RocF) BioBrick. The primers will be used with previously rehydrated primers to try and obtain all four parts that we need to make the Subtilin Immunity BioBrick using the Gibson Protocol. So far the ''spaIFEG'' coding sequence (part 3) has already been successfully obtained. We still need to obtain the plasmid vector (part 1), promoter & RBS (part 2) and double terminator (part 4). So in order to do this the primers received today will be rehydrated and Phusion PCR will be carried out for each of the parts in order to amplify these parts.

Gel extraction and ligation of filamentous cell part into pGFPrrnB and pSB1C3
Aims
The aim of the experiment is to further purify the filamentous cell part (yneA), pGFPrrnB and pSB1C3 by doing gel extraction. The purified fragments are then ligated together.
Materials and Protocol
Please refer to gel electrophoresis, gel extraction, nanodrop spectrophotometer and ligation.

Table 2: Nanodrop spectrophotometer results. Table represents the amount of plasmid present in µl/ml quantity.
Discussion
The DNA concentration obtained for yneA ranged from 3.4 µl/ml to 5.4 µl/ml, 2.2 µl/ml for pSB1C3 and 18.5 µl/ml for pGFPrrnB . Therefore the concentration for yneA and pSB1C3 is low.
Conclusion
We will proceed with digestion, but another set of ligation will be set up to repeat the process again.
Results and Conclusion
Ligation will be done overnight because concentration of the filamentous cell part, pGFPrrnB and pSB1C3 are not very good. Please refer to
20.08.10 for results and discussion. Overnight culture of
yneA, pSB1C3 and pGFPrrnB were set up for miniprep extraction tomorrow, 20th August, 2010.
