Up to 7.3
1.Positive transformation of the standard parts from the 2011 distribution kit.
2.Pick up three to five clones of each plate and incubate at 37℃ to amplify the bacteria. Use NanoDrop to measure the concentration of miniprep products.
3.Measure the growth curve of E.coli DH5α in LB liquid medium without any antibiotics.
4.Prepare for getting a tandem part of B0015-B0025. Access 50μl reaction system to double digest B0015 and B0025 separately. Unfortunately, electrophoresis enzyme digestive product of B0015 does not result in objective stripes. Low efficiency of gel extraction of B0025 digestive product.
5.Prepare for getting a tandem part of E0240-B0025 or E0840-B0025. Access 50μl reaction system to double digest E0240, E0840 and B0025 respectively.
6.PCR primer design.

 

7.4-7.10
1. Taq DNA polymerase PCR to get;Promoter-1/2riboswitch/ribozyme” and “1/2riboswitch/ribozyme-Terminator” sequence respectively. PCR products are designed to conduct bluntend ligation. However, Taq-PCR products contain poly A. Klenow should be used to digest the poly A.
2. “Promoter-1/2riboswitch/ribozyme” and “1/2riboswitch/ribozyme-Terminator” sequence digest of double enzymes, and then link with backbone pSB1K3. Change the resistance of backbone from ampicillin to kanamycin can avoid false positives.
3. Use high fidelity pfu DNA polymerase to get PCR products for linking without poly A.

2. Pick up three to five clones of each plate which contains designed measurements. Send to sequencing.  
3. Prepare pSB1K3, pSB1A3 and pSB1C3 as backbones for parts ligation. Digest backbones of double enzymes.
4. Use Mutation Kit to get PCR products without poly A.
5. Design ”Terminator-Promoter” part. PCR to get promoter J13453(pBAD), then digest of XbaI and PstI. Link the segment with B0015 which has been digested of SpeI and PstI.

7.18-7.25
1. Try new method to get designed RNA controllers. Pick up several clones of each plate, then PCR or double digestion and agarose gel electrophoresis to test the preliminary correctness of sequence.
