All fragments (F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,F7,F8) from AAV cap1,2,5,6,8,9 were combined. Therefore 8 fragment mixes ready for restriction digest with Bsa1 were obtained. 2ul of PCR amplified fragments were taken for the restriction (NanoDrop analysis showed 1ug of DNA of each of six AAVs giving 6-7ug in total per virobyte).
Bsa1 digestion:
6x2ul of DNA
3ul NEB4 10x buffer
3ul BSA 10x
11ul H2O
=30ul total
digest at 37°C for 1hr
heat inactivation at 65°C for 20min
14/09/2010
All fragments from previous day were washed with QIAquick nucleotide removal kit and the DNA was dissolved in 30ul H2O
Anchor stock solution: Anchor oligos 12689 (150ul) and 5 (30ul) were added to Anchor_comp_all (180ul). The mixture was diluted 10x and then heated to 95°C for 2min and subsequently left to slowly cool down to room temperature on a heating block.

incubated at RT for 1hr
magnet applied until the solutions cleared out (M-270 is a bit slower) and the solution discarded
wash twice with 75ul of wash/binding buffer and once with 75ul of 1x ligase buffer
ViroByte addition started with F1, F2, F3 ,F4 and F5 following the standard protocol:
add 20ul of Fragment X
resuspend the beads
add 2.3ul of 10x ligase buffer
add 1ul of T4 ligase
incubate at room temperature for 1hr (shake to avoid beads precipitation)
