Same recipe for KanR B/A'-Bsa except primers are prB_p1003+ and prA'_p1003-.

Program: # 5 min-94oC # 45 sec-94oC # 1 min-60oC # 1 min-72oC # Repeat 2 through 4 35 times # 5 min-72oC

==11-05-2010==

PCR purification of KanR A/B'-Bsa and KanR B/A'-Bsa created [[#10-05-2010|10-05-2010]] with Qiagen PCR cleanup kit.

Determined concentrations by nanodrop. KanA/B'-Bsa: 101.1ng/μL KanB/A'-Bsa:89.6ng/μL

==17-05-2010==

Innoculated 250mL overnight cultures with 10mL,4mL and 2mL of a starter culture of DH5α. Left shaking at 18oC overnight.

==18-05-2010==

Prepared DH5α E.Coli competent cells using the Inoue Method.

Transformed DH5α cells with pSB1C3-J04450 and grew overnight at 37oC on Chloramphenicol plates

==19-05-2010==

From the transformation of DH5α cells with pSB1C3-J04450 performed on [[#18-05-2010|18-05-2010]], we took 4 distinct colonies, streaked them on a new chloramphenicol plate and inoculated 5ml liquid cultures.

==20-05-2010==

Performed a Miniprep of 3 of the 4 5ml liquid cultures of DH5α cells with pSB1C3-J04450 from [[#19-05-2010|19-05-2010]]. Took a 1μL sample of the Miniprep solutions and digested with NotI at 37oC for 1 hour.

Digestion Recipe: :1μL Miniprep (between 153.2 ng/μl and 302.7ng/μl determined by nanodrop) :1μL NotI :1μL 10X ReACT 3 :7μL MilliQ

Ran Digestion on a 1% agarose gel to check that the plasmid obtained with what we expected.

==25-05-2010==

Made 1.5mL LB liquid cultures of pSB1C3 from the plate streaked on [[#19-05-2010|19-05-2010]] and added chloramphenicol.

==26-05-2010==

Made 3 glycerol stocks of pSB1C3 from overnight made [[#25-05-2010|25-05-2010]]

==27-05-2010==

Digested both A/B' and B/A' Kanamycin Resistance cassettes fragments from [[#11-05-2010|11-05-2010]] and pSB1C3 from [[#20-05-2010|20-05-2010]] with NotI at 37oC for 1 hour. Heat inactivated the NotI for 10 minutes at 65oC. Ligated the Kanamycin Resistance cassettes into pSB1C3 at 16oC for 1 hour then took 15μL to room temperature for 2 hours. Transformed 100μL of DH5α cells with 5μL of RT ligation reaction. Plated transformation on plates with both Chloramphenicol and Kanamycin.

Digestion Recipe: :1μL Miniprep (302.7ng/μl determined by nanodrop) :2μL either A/B' or B/A' Kanamycin resistance cassette (approx. 100ng/μL) :1μL NotI :1μL 10X ReACT 3 :5μL MilliQ

PCR Program: # 5 min-94oC # 45 sec-94oC # 1 min-60oC # 1 min-72oC # Repeat 2 through 4 35 times # 5 min-72oC

==28-05-2010==

We got colonies!! (it's a fantastic feeling) We then lovingly put them in the cold room to await our return from Calgary

==30-05-2010==

From the transformation of DH5α cells with pSB1C3-KanR performed on [[#28-05-2010|28-05-2010]], we took 12 distinct colonies of each KanA/B' and KanB/A', streaked them on a new chloramphenicol plate and inoculated 5ml liquid cultures with the appropriate antibiotics overnight at 37oC. We also picked colonies of pSB4A5-J04450, pSB4C5-J04450 and pSB3T5-J04450, streaked and made 5mL liquid cultures of them too.

==31-05-2010==

9/12 of the pSB1C3-KanA/B' Liquid cultures [[#30-05-2010|30-05-2010]] were successful and only 1/12 of the pSB1C3-KanB/A' liquid cultures were successful. The pSB4A5, pSB3T5 and pSB4C5 liquid cultures worked. Miniprepped all the liquid cultures that worked. However, the streaks on the plates worked.

Performed a restriction digest of an aliquot of the pSB1C3-KanA/B' and pSB1C3-KanB/A' minipreps. Digested with XbaI at 37oC for one hour and then with EcoRI at 37oC for one hour. Ran a 1% agarose gel of the digests to determine the orientation of the KanR fragments.

KanA/B' and KanB/A' fragements PCRed on [[#11-05-2010|11-05-2010]], digested with BsaI at 37oC for 1.5hours, heat inactivated at 65oC for 30 minutes. Tried to ligate KanA/B' fragments to each other and tried to ligate KanB/A' fragments to each other. Also tried to ligate KanA/B' fragments with KanB/A'. Ligated with T4 DNA ligase overnight at 16oC.

==01-06-2010== KanA/B' and KanB/A' fragements PCRed on [[#11-05-2010|11-05-2010]], digested with BsaI-HF at 37oC for 1.5hours, heat inactivated at 65oC for 30 minutes. Tried to ligate KanA/B' fragments to each other and tried to ligate KanB/A' fragments to each other. Also tried to ligate KanA/B' fragments with KanB/A'. Ligated with T4 DNA ligase for 3 hours at 21oC. Set up liquid cultures of KanRA/B'-Bsa and KanR B/A'-Bsa in pSB1C3 from plates streaked with on [[#30-05-2010|30-05-2010]] ==02-06-2010== Miniprepped liquid cultures from [[#01-06-2010|01-06-2010]]. Ran a 1% agarose gel of the ligations performed [[#01-06-2010|01-06-2010]]. To optimize the Restriction and ligation of BsaI-HF, digested KanA/B' and KanB/A' fragements PCRed on [[#11-05-2010|11-05-2010]] with the following recipe: Digestion Recipe: :14μL either A/B' or B/A' Kanamycin resistance cassette (approx. 100ng/μL) :5μL 1/10 dillution of 100X BSA :5μL 10X NEBuffer4 :1.5&mu:L BsaI-HF :24.5μL MilliQ Digested at 50oC for 1hour, heat inactivated the enzyme at 65oC for 20 minutes PCR purified the digests. ==03-06-2010== Tried to ligate the KanA/B' fragments to itself. Tried to ligate the KanB/A' fragments to itself. Tried to ligate the KanA/B' fragments to the KanB/A' fragments.

Took remaining transformation of Dbl3 cells with ccdB BfuA/B' and ccdB BfuB/A' from [[#28-06-2010|28-06-2010]] out of the fridge and plated 25, 50 and 100μL of each on chloramphenicol LB plates

From the chloramphenicol and chloramphenicol/Kanamycin plates streaked with ccdB BbsA/B', ccdB BbsB/A',ccdB BsaA/B' and ccdB BsaB/A' on [[#28-06-2010|28-06-2010]], only ccdB BsaB/A' #6,8,10,11,12,14,15,18, ccdB BbsA/B' #8,15 and 20 grew on only the chloramphenicol plate. Made 5mL overnight liquid cultures with chloramphenicol of the some of the streaks that worked (ccdB BsaB/A' #6,8,10,11,12, ccdB BbsA/B' # 15, 20 and ccdB BsaB/A'#5 which didn't work but is a positive control).

Miniprepped liquid culture grown [[#28-06-2010|28-06-2010]] of Kan BsaA/B' #7. Concentration is 293.4ng/μL.

All the transormations of Cambridge 1009 color series performed [[#28-06-2010|28-06-2010]] worked. Made 5mL liquid cultures of each part.

Made competent Dbl3 cells by the Inuoe method from liquid cultures grown overnight. (set up on [[#28-06-2010|28-06-2010]]). The OD of the culture was 0.775.

Re Ran enzyme efficiency experiment with the same specifications as on [[#28-06-2010|28-06-2010]] but omitting BsaI-HF from the experiment because BsaI, BbsI and BfuAI appear to be the best of the enzymes. Also we ran the experiment with 10 Units of each enzyme not 20 Units.

Miniprepped liquid cultures of ccdB Bbs A/B' # 15 and 20 and of ccdB BsaB/A'#6, 8, 10, 11, 12 and 5(which did grow on both Kan/Chlor and Chlor plates, so it is a positive control for the incorrect plasmid) grown [[#29-06-2010|29-06-2010]]. The concentrations of the minipreps were between 200 and 400ng/mu;L and the curves did not show contamination. Digested approximately 500ng of minipreps with EcoRI and PstI with the following recipe: :19.5μL MilliQ H2O :2.5&mu:L Miniprep :3μL 10X BSA :3μL 10X NEBuffer 3 :1μL EcoRI :1μL PstI

made 5mL culture of Kan BbsA/B' #1 from [[#]]

Ya! We got colonies of the ccdB BfuA/B' an ccdB BfuB/A' part plasmids that were plated [[#29-06-2010|29-06-2010]].

Miniprep of liquid cultures made [[#29-06-2010|29-06-2010]] of transformations of Cambridge 2009 color series. Concentrations are as follows: J23100, 397.7 ng/μL; K274100, 388.9ng/μL; K274200, 556.5ng/μL; K274004, 106.1ng/μL; K130109, 82.5ng/μL; K274003, 161.0ng/μL.

==01-07-2010== Made 5mL liquid cultures with Choramphenicol with streaks from plates of ccdB Bbs A/B', ccdB Bbs B/A', cddB BsaA/B', ccdB BsaB/A' part plasmids from [[#25-06-2010|25-06-2010]]. Incubated at 37oC for 1 hour. Plated 25μL of 1/100 and 1/1000 dilutions of liquid cultures onto Chloramphenicol LB plates. Miniprepped liquid culture of Kan BbsA/B' #1 made [[#30-06-2010|30-06-2010]]. Ran gel of Enzyme efficiency experiment performed on [[#30-06-2010|30-06-2010]]. Ran gel of digests of Minipreps of ccdB part plasmids performed on [[#30-06-2010|30-06-2010]]to ensure they are as expected. ==02-07-2010== The colonies on the 1/100 and 1/1000 dilution plates of ccdB Bbs A/B', ccdB Bbs B/A', cddB BsaA/B', ccdB BsaB/A' part plasmids made on [[#01-07-2010|01-07-2010]], were spaced appropriately so as to be able to pick individual colonies. We picked as many colonies as possible and streaked on both LB plates with Kanamycin and Chloramphenicol resistance and LB plates with only Choramphenicol resistance. Again to determine if ccdB was infact inserted. ==Kan, Chlor, and Tet Parts== Strategy: to insert Kan into pSB1A3 after cutting both with NotI.
