Transfer of m-yCCS into pEX & Cloning of N-CPPs

Restreak results from 2/9 revealed four white (positive) clones. These were picked for colony PCR (y5, y6, y8 and y12).
Also picked four colonies from N-CPP plate from 30/8 (NC1, NC2, NC3 and NC4).

Colony PCR

PCR tubes
dH2O 16.2
DreamTaq buffer 2
10 mM dNTPs 0.4
pEXf 0.4
pEXr 0.4
DNA 0.5
DreamTaq pol. 0.08
Total 20 μl

Gel verification

Gel verification of pSB1C3.N-CPPs and pEX.yCCS colony PCR.
3 μl λ; 5 μl sample.
λ=O'GeneRuler 1 kb DNA ladder

1 % agarose, 80 V

Expected bands

  • pSB1C3.N-CPPs: 365 bp (TAT), 374 bp (LMWP), 395 bp (Tra10)
  • pEX.m-yCCS: 963 bp

Results
Correct bands for pEX.m-yCCS clones 5, 6 and 8. No band for y12. 5 & 8 will later be selected for plasmid prep.
Too large bands for all CPP clones to be correct, which is strange. New cloning will be attempted.


Cloning of N-CPPs into pSB1C3

Re-ligation of 30/8 digestion.

Ligation

[Dig. pSB1C3 X+A EXTR 1] = 13.72 ng/μl [Dig. N-CPP X+A] = 66.6 ng/μl

Ligation mix
Vector DNA 6
Insert DNA 9
5X Rapid Ligation buf. 4
dH2O 0
T4 DNA ligase 1
Total 20 μl

Transformation

Standard transformation procedures.

  1. 2 μl ligation mix†
    5 μl ligation mix

†: Possibly contaminated due to non-sterile transformation.

Gel verification of digestion sample

Gel verification of undigested and digested (XbaI & AgeI) N-CPP cluster plasmid.
3 μl λ; 3 μl sample
1 kb λ=O'GeneRuler 1 kb DNA ladder; 50 bp λ=GeneRuler 50 bp DNA ladder
  • NCPP: undigested N-CPP cluster plasmid
  • Dig NCPP: digested N-CPP cluster plasmid, XbaI and AgeI

1 % agarose, 100 V

Results
Difficult to interpret results, since the source plasmid size is unknown. However, it looks like the digested sample presents a shorter fragment compared to the undigested. On the other hand, it also looks like the size difference is too big to have resulted from just excising the ≈300 bp N-CPP cluster.
Also strange is that it looks like there are two bands present in the undigested sample.

Cloning of SOD⋅His into pMA

Sequencing results

  • SH1: pMA.SOD⋅His 1 (fasta)
  • SH2: pMA.SOD⋅His 2 (fasta)

Ran nucleotide Blasts (Blastn) to verify the sequencing results (SH1 Blastn / SH2 Blastn). Both Blasts revealed three identical silent mutations within the His tag. However, since they don't affect the amino acid sequence, and don't result in any rare codons, no action will be needed.
