Gibson assembly efficiency assay

Note: Prepare these mixtures on ice 1. Obtain a 40 uL aliquot of BL21 cells. 2. Add 120 uL of ice water to the aliquot. 3. The total volume is now 160 uL; split evenly among four labeled tubes: INS + BCK, INS + BCK, INSctrl, BCKctrl.

pGA vector Assembly

4. * INS + BCK tubes (x 2)

    * add 1 uL of 10X-diluted pGA Gibson product (1A3 BCK/INS pLacGFP)

5. * INSctrl tube

    * add 100 pg of pLacGFP gel extract

6. * BCKctrl

    * add 100 pg of 1A3 gel extract


Repeat the process for the comparison pSB vector as follows:

pSB vector Assembly
    • 1 uL of pSB Gibson product (T19-1A3/pLacGFP)
    • 1 ng INS (pLacGFP- gel extract)
    • 1 ng BCK (T19-1A3- gel extract)
  1. Once all the samples are ready, begin the transformation.
    • Rescue each sample in 500 mLs of LB
    • Incubate all samples @ 37oC for ~45 min.
  2. Plate 50 uL on each sample onto a LB + Chlor + Amp + IPTG plate.
    • 1 plate for each control in each vector set.
    • 3 plates for each Gibson product tube in each set. ( 6 plates for each vector set + 2 control plates)
