Results

Maria and Afton

  • Re-Inoculated cultures with 10µ sample in 5mL of LB+Amp show no expression
    • Overnight cultures made Sunday: only J23116 is expressing florescence (slightly pink)
    • Looking over the past results of transformations on June 11:
      • Only J23100-104 expressed florescence on the plates
      • The overnight cultures say, "all cells grew well"
      • It is not 100% clear whether ALL of the cells with promoter parts ever expressed RFP
    • The amount of time it takes for the cells to fluoresce will be monitored from now on
  • Electrocompetency was completed
    • 80 vials of 250µL Electrocompetent NEB10β was made
    • They will be tested today to ensure the procedure was successful

Tasks

Kevin

  • PCR

Maria and Afton

  • Do Spectrophotometry of E0240 and pSB1C3
  • Digest E0240 and pSB1C3 w/p1010
  • Run a gel on E0240 and pSB1C3 w/p1010
  • Ligate E0240 w/ pSB1C3 with J23100-104
    • Digests from last week will be used for ligation
    • However, I would prefer to transform Ligations with J06702 and see how well those grow before proceeding to further ligations
  • Transform Ligations with pSB1C3 and J06702 with: J23100-J23107, R0011, R0040
  • Transform newly made electrocompetent cells to make sure they are working
