Cloning of hly gene into pKSII+ vector

Kamil


Tasks:

  • Verify the correctness of the pKS/hly constructs

Methods:

  • The BanI enzyme was selected for the test because the hly insert bears an additional digest site.
  • Digest mixture's composition:

    2ul Orange buffer (Fermentas)
    1ul BanI enzyme
    5ul plasmid solution
    The solution was topped up with H2O to 20ul.
  • The digest was kept at 37 °C overnight (~18h) and then inactivated at 65 °C for 10 min.
  • The electrophoretic separation was carried out on 1% agarose gel

Results:

  • Gel (from left)
  1. GeneRuler DNA Ladder Mix #SM0333 (Fermentas) (3ul)
  2. sample no. 14 (5ul)
  3. sample no. 15 (5ul)
  4. sample no. 16 (5ul)
  5. sample no. 18 (5ul)
  6. pKS plasmid (control) (5ul)

Discussion:

  • The expected fragments size for the pKS plasmid are 142, 491, 1097 and 1171 base pairs.
  • The expected fragments size for the insert containing plasmid are 142, 535, 1097, 1171 and 1538 base pairs.
  • The samples no. 14, 15 and 16 were supposed to conatin the hly insert.
  • The sample no. 18 did not contain the hly insert and was used as a second control.
