For week three, the reporter group continued creating the lac inducible test construct. When the primers, designed during week two, arrived, the reporters began assembling the linkers and cleavage sites via PCR.

| Assembly Steps | Parts Involved with Assembly Step |
|---|---|
| Colony PCR | Two colonies from plates from 5/30/11 |
| Agarose Gel Elcectrophoresis | J33240 PCR products from 5/30/11 Colony PCR products from above |
Results: The gel showed that the insert (J33240) PCR worked, but the assembly did not work. We came to this conclusion because the constructs on the gel were less than 500 base pairs and our desired construct should have been about 1100 base pairs. Thus, we needed to do assembly for a third time. We started this third assembly with the R0100 miniprep from 5/26/11 and the J33204 PCR products from 5/30/11.
Lac Inducible Test: Take 3
| Assembly Steps | Parts Involved with Assembly Step |
|---|---|
| Restriction Digest | Insert: J33204 using XbaI and PstI Vector: R0010 using SpeI and PstI |
| Ligation | J33204+R0010 digests |
| Transformation/Plating | The above ligation was transformed into Escherichia coli cells and plated onto Amp resistant plates. |
