JULY: WEEK 4

July, 18th

Digestions of previously purified plasmids were performed for ligations:

Plasmid Kind DNA (μl) H2O (μl) Enzyme 1 (μl) Enzyme 2 (μl) Buffer H (μl) Final Volume (μl)
E9-2 Insert 11.5 9 1 Xbal 1 Pstl 2.5 25
E10-1 Insert 10 10.5 1 Xbal 1 Pstl 2.5 25
E11-1 Insert 4 16.5 1 Xbal 1 Pstl 2.5 25
E12-1 Insert 10 10.5 1 Xbal 1 PstI 2.5 25
E13-1 Insert 6 14.5 1 EcoRl 1 Pstl 2.5 25
E16-1 Insert 4 16.5 1 EcoRl 1 Pstl 2.5 25
E21-1 Insert 7.5 13 1 EcoRl 1 Xbal 2.5 25
E22-2 Insert 10 10.5 1 EcoRl 1 Pstl 2.5 25
BBa_I13521 Insert 12.5 8 1 EcoRl 1 Pstl 2.5 25
BBa_R0040-BBa_J61002 Vector 20.5 0 1 EcoRl 1 Pstl 2.5 25

Reactions were incubated at 37°C for three hours; meanwhile two medium-size agarose gels were prepared according to protocols. Moreover BBa_R0040-BBa_J61002 plasmid purification and quantification was carried out:

Plasmid DNA (ng/μl)
BBa_R0040-BBa_J61002 37.3

In the afternoon gel electrophoresis was performed.

As shown in figure, all clones were positive (apart from E13 run where it is possible to recognize only a band at approximately 2800 bp, corresponding to the undigested plasmid), so we cut and purified the bands of interest. Cells harbouring E13 were again inoculated in 5 ml LB + Amp.

In the late afternoon 1 litre of TBE 1x was prepared and E13 was newly digested with restriction endonucleases:

Plasmid Kind DNA (μl) H2O (μl) Enzyme 1 (μl) Enzyme 2 (μl) Buffer H (μl) Final Volume (μl)
<partinfo>BBa_I13521</partinfo> Insert 1 19.5 1 EcoRl 1 Pstl 2.5 25

After gel extraction, cut DNA was quantified:

Plasmid DNA (ng/μl)
E9 (X-P) 5.9
E10 (X-P) 4.2
E11 (X-P) 5.2
E12 (X-P) 5.2
E16 (E-P) 6.4
E21 (E-P) 5.8
E22 (E-P) 6.5
E23 (E-P) 4.6
BBa_I13521 6.1
BBa_R0040-BBa_J61002 2.1

Then ligations were performed in a final volume of 10 μl:

Ligation Name Vector Vector volume (μl) Insert Insert volume (μl) Buffer (μl) T4 Ligase (μl)
E24 BBa_R0040 (S-P) 1.5 E9 (X-P) 6.5 1 1
E25 BBa_R0040 (S-P) 1.5 E10 (X-P) 6.5 1 1
E26 BBa_R0040 (S-P) 1.5 E11 (X-P) 6.5 1 1
E27 <partinfo>BBa_R0040</partinfo> (S-P) 1.5 E12 (X-P) 6.5 1 1
E31 BBa_R0040 (E-P) 2.5 E16 (E-P) 5.5 1 1
E32 pSB4C5 (E-P) 2 E21 (E-P) 6 1 1
E33 pSB4C5 (E-P) 2 E22 (E-P) 6 1 1
E34 pSB4C5 (E-P) 6.5 E23 (E-P) 1.5 1 1
E35 pSB4C5 (E-P) 2 BBa_I13521 (E-P) 6.5 1 1
E36 pSB4C5 (E-P) 1 BBa_R0040-BBa_J61002 (E-P) 7 1 1

Ligations were incubated ON at 16°C.

July, 19th

E13 was newly digested for the subsequent gel extraction.

Plasmid Kind DNA (μl) H2O (μl) Enzyme 1 (μl) Enzyme 2 (μl) Buffer H (μl) Final Volume (μl)
E13 Insert 6 14.5 1 Xbal 1 Pstl 2.5 25

After electrophoresis, E13 insert was succesfully identified and gel extracted (not shown). Meanwhile, sufficient amount of buffer 1 and buffer 2 for MGZ1 competent cell preparation protocol were prepared. E13 DNA was then quantified:

Plasmid DNA (ng/μl)
E13 (X-P) 43

After E13 digestion (E-P), its ligation was performed in a final volume of 10 μl:

Ligation Name Vector Vector volume (μl) Insert Insert volume (μl) Buffer (μl) T4 Ligase (μl)
E28 pSB4C5 (E-P) 6 E13 (X-P) 2 1 1

Ligations were incubated ON at 16°C.

250 ml of M9 were prepared, according to protocols.

July, 20th

E24, E25, E26, E27 and were transformed in 100 μl of TOP10 competent cells according to protocols. Moreover E28, E31, E32, E33, E34, E35, E36 and BBa_B0032 (transformation efficiency positive control) were transformed in 100 μl of MGZ1 competent cells according to protocols. Plates were incubated ON at 37°C.

500 ml of LB with chloramphenicol 12.5 were prepared.
