Modifications made on protocols allowed the proper conduct of the experiments even if we didn't get good results.
- Sequencing Order
- Cloning Session (3A Assembly):
-> 1st-step constructions:
RBS-TetR RBS-LuxR Fha-CinI Fha-CinR Fha-TetR Fha-LuxI Fha-LuxR
plasmid vector : pSB1AC3
-> coloration constructions:
pLux-Lycopene pCin-Lycopene
plasmid vector : pSB1AK3
-> constructions for the tests:
pConst-GFP pCin-GFP pLux-GFP pTet-GFP pLac-GFP
plasmid vector : pSB1AT3
pConst-(RBS-CinR) pConst-(RBS-LuxR)
plasmid vector: pSB3C5
- Plasmid transfer of Fha: from PCR BlentII to pSB1AT3.
- Cloning Session (Standard Assembly):
-> 1st-step constructions:
RBS-TetR RBS-LuxR Fha-CinI Fha-CinR Fha-TetR Fha-LuxI Fha-LuxR
Fha plasmid (pSB1AT3) is used as vector.
-> coloration constructions:
pLux-Lycopene pCin-Lycopene
Promoter plasmids are used as vector.
-> constructions for the tests: pConst-GFP pCin-GFP pLux-GFP pTet-GFP pLac-GFP
Promoter plasmids are used as vector.
pConst-(RBS-CinR) pConst-(RBS-LuxR)
Promoter plasmid is used as vector. - Cloning Session :

RBS-CinI 2
RBS-CinI 3
RBS-CinI 5
MerR-CinR
MerR-CinR 4
MerR-CinR 5
RESULTS :
MerR -CinR 5 comeback positiv from the sequencing
Digestions:
a gel checking of the restriction results were performed.
Purification:
In order to check and extract the wright insert.
Ligations : with the ratio:
3X of insert 1X of plasmid
Spreading over Petri dish
RESULTS :
No result on the PCR checking of the colonies.
Restriction: between E and P (same for pSB1AT3)
No need of purification because PCR BlentII is Kanamycin resistant hereas the selection of pSB1AT3 is made on Tetracycline.
Ligation
Spreading over Petri Dish
RESULTS :
PCR result: successful transfer.
Digestions: a gel checking of the restriction results were performed.
Purification: In order to check and extract the wright insert.
Ligations
Spreading over Petri Dish
RESULTS :
PCR result from colonies:
5 potentially successfull constructions RBS-TetR Fha-CinI Fha-LuxI pLux-Lyco pCin-Lyco
Double cheking with a restriction gel:
from minpirep of the newly obtained constructions, we performed a digestion. Length of the interest fragment are then given by electroporesis
-> same result as previously
Digestions: a gel checking of the restriction results were performed.
Purification: In order to check and extract the right insert.
Ligations : We add a control for the ligations: plasmids without its inserts.
Spreading over Petri dish
RESULTS : Restriction gel checking:
Only inserts from pConst-GFP and pLac-GFP constructions have the right size
pConst-GFP Fha-LuxR Fha-LuxI Fha-CinI pLux-Lycopene pCin-Lycopene pLac-GFP RBS-TetR
RESULTS : Correct sequences for pCin-Lycopene ad RBS-TetR

Few manipulation this week, but we also worked on the tests of our project for the Human Practice.
-> 1st-step constructions:
RBS-CinI RBS-LuxI RBS-LacI Fha-CinR Fha-LacI
-> Constructions for the tests:
pCin-GFP pLux-GFP pLac-GFP pConst-GFP pConst-(RBS-CinR) pConst-MerR-CinR
-> 3rd-step Construction:
pLac-MerR-CinR
Digestions: The DNA quantity added into the preparation was increased: 7µl instead of 2µl. a gel checking of the restriction results were performed.
Purification: In order to check and extract the wright insert.
Ligations : We add a control for the ligations: plasmids without its inserts.
Spreading over Petri dish
RESULTS : Owing to an antibiotic issue, bacterial mats were obtained on every Petri Dishes.
So, remaining preculture were spread again.
And no bacteria growd this time.
Ligations were started over using purified DNA from the previous digestions:
PCR checking were performed on colonies, just few inserts had the right length
pConst-GFP pTet-GFP pConst-(RBS-CinR)
pLac-GFP pConst-GFP pTet-GFP pConst-(RBS-CinR)
Fha in pSB1AT3
RESULTS : Sequences matched perfectly with theory for both inserts : pConst-GFP and Fha.
