All samples were correctly digested and run; both I20M-1 and I20A-1 are positive, so we decided to use I20M-1; this new screening for I21-4 showed again that it's correct.
Gel extraction gave these results:
- I0 (E-X): 20,8 ng/ul
- <partinfo>BB_F2620</partinfo> (E-S): 13,5 ng/ul
- INTEIN (E-S): 6,5 ng/ul
- <partinfo>BB_B0034</partinfo> (E-X): 23,2 ng/ul
- I20M-1 (E-S): 7,4 ng/ul

Ligations of previous day were transformed (1 ul) into 100 ul of home-made competent cells 'E. coli DH5-alpha. They were than plated on LB+Amp agar plates and incubated ON at 37°C.
Colony PCR was performed for MyCRIM (9 colonies), 1 blank, 1 negative control (I5(X-S)), 1 positive control (MrGene CRIM from plate).
Screening PCR: MyCRIM (first 9 samples), ladder, blank, RING, CRIM from MrGene.
