Restriction digest of psiCHECK-2 plasmid
This will be used as backbone for raPCR cloning. Enzymes: XhoI and NotI

Assay:

5 µL 10x NEBuffer 3
5 µL 10x BSA
5 µL plasmid (psiCHECK-2, ~370 ng/µL)
3 µL XhoI
1 µL NotI
18.6 µL H2O

Restriction digest was performed for approx. 5h



raPCR to create binding sites for different miRNAs This random assembly PCR (raPCR) will be done to create binding site patterns for the miRNAs mentioned. In the first PCR step the oligos will basically anneal and constructs of different lengths will form. In the second step, the stop oligos are used as primers to amplify the previously formed constructs.

  • first tries are: hsa-mir-122, hsa-mir122(ran9-12) and mm-mir-376a/375 (Oligos: ra001-003 and ra006)

stop-oligos: raPCR_AS13-stop_rev_NotI and raPCR_AS13-stop_fw_XhoI (ra017/018)
spacer: raPCR_AS13-spacer(0) and raPCR_AS13-spacer(10) (ra012/013)

Oligos were used in standard conc. (100µM)

Total: 12 reactions
each reaction was set up in 30 µL, using 2x Phusion Mastermix for 12 cycles

  • PCR purification: each PCR was purified using Qiagen PCR purification Kit and eluted in 32 µL

for the next PCR, three assay will tried:

  1. 5µL eluate + 1 µL of each stop oligo in 50µL total volume
  2. 5µL eluate + 2 µL of each stop oligo in 50µL total volume
  3. 20µL eluate + 1 µL of each stop oligo in 50µL total volume

stop-oligos: raPCR_AS13-stop_rev_NotI and raPCR_AS13-stop_fw_XhoI

  • 2. PCR

In total there were 72 reactions. Each was run with 2x Phusion Mastermix, missing volume was filled with water.

DNA was stored in fridge afterwards
