  • Grew up 6L worth of cells to purify RiAFP, and purified RiAFP. Pellets were flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 C before use. Purification of RiGFP was used for ice recrystallization studies, rat liver morphology studies, and C. elegans survival studies.
  • Designed Received primers for PCR amplification of Kanamycin and RiAFP/RiGFP for eventual cross over PCR and integration into the genome.
  • Conducted sucessful PCR (insert image). PCR purified sucessful PCR products and treated with DpnI for 30 minutes.
  • Crossover PCR was sucessful (insert image)
  • Integrated crossover PCR product into genome of EcNR2 strain
  • Transformed new EcnR2 strain with plasmid containing T7 polymerase and screened for appropriate colonies.
  • Received 22 degenerate oligonucleotide sequences from Keck and performed MAGE. Cultures were grown up to midlog post electroporation and freeze-thawed approximately 14 times before plating. Suriving colonies were isolated, and we will soon put them through another cycle of MAGE. The process will be repeated.
