Emulsifier

Since last weeks attempt to construct the inducible protomer R0011 with RBS B0032 failed, we decided to take a different approach. Instead of doing the standard 2 parts assembly, we amplify the promoter by PCR digest it and ligate in the plasmid that contains the RBS which has only be cut open at the left side. By doing so we do not risk losing the super small DNA fragments like the RBS. The problem is that we cannot use antibiotics selection. So we need to determine that by Colony PCR and sequencing.

PCR Amplification

R0011 was amplified with the universal primers. The product was put on gel:

Lane description:

#	Description	Amount
1	BioRad EZ Ladder	5 ul
2	PCR Product	10 ul + 2 ul LB

Digestion

The PCR product of promotor R0011 was cut with ... and the RBS containing plasmid has been cut open with ... at 37 C.

Ligation

Ligation over night at 16 C.
