Mackay set up PCR to re-amplify OxyR-medium. Left note for Rob to run on gel when he came in next. Matt elaborated on the previous to-do list from July 28th:

  1. List of plasmids and into which strains they go for electroporation:
    • SoxRW (pIG24) into SoxR-
    • SoxRM(pIG25) into SoxR-
    • SoxRS(pIG26) into SoxR-
    • HemH/OxyRW (pIG22) into OxyR-
    • HemH/OxyRS (pIG23) into OxyR-
    • KatG/OxyRW (pIG19) into OxyR-
    • KatG/OxyRS (pIG20) into OxyR-
  2. Plan plate reader protocol
  3. Move (in database) IGM22-26 to plasmid section and rename to pIG22-26. Improve descriptions.

Matt did electroporations with Dr. Grose using the newly-ordered SoxR- and OxyR- strains.

Matt made more to-do lists for mundane lab tasks such as making LB-amp plates, and stating the obvious such as "try ligations such-and-such over again". He also noted that from the previous day's electroporation attempt, all but two (IGM22 and 27) worked and gave colonies, though only IGM23's colonies turned green.

Matt and Rob were up very early and in the lab by 7:00 am to perform the plate-reader experiment with the newly constructed plasmids, in their newly electroporated strains. Their hands were tired from so much pipetting, but they did manage to finish around 1:00 pm with some data in hand:
