Lab Sept 3 2009

Plates to check

- K235003, 1 and 4 colonies

- K235005, 1 and 0

- K235010, 4 and 6

- J04450-Kan 7A, 21 and 24

- J04450-Kan 7G, 3 and 2

- P1010 Kan, many colonies

- Amp, many

- Cm, none

- I0500, quite a few

- R0051, many

So the stab of P1010 Cm is the only one not to grow at all and we have it already anyway.

12.30pm

2 broth cultures started of everything that grew. Cultures not left shaking at this point.

4.00pm

- Add IPTG to one of I0500, one of J04450 7A, and one of 7G to a concentration 0.83mM

- Start shaking before we leave

5:20pm

Kyliah added a number of parts to the assemblies page, and added most of those parts to the actual iGEM team page (!) woohoo...

It looks like, to finish the NAND gate proper, we have four rounds of assemblies to do, each set dependent upon the last:

* K235009, K235015, K235016, K235017 * K235018, K235019, K235020, K235021 * K235022, K235023, K235024, K235011 * K235025, K235026, K235027, K235028

K235011 makes an mCherry analogue to K145303 - testing of ribolock temperature sensitivity?

K235023 makes an interesting test signal inverter

The last batch makes the NAND gate proper with three positive controls

Each round will take at LEAST two days (one to miniprep, digest and ligate, and transform and grow overnight; one to broth culture overnight). So, in theory, by the middle of September, Natasha and Kyliah can have everything assembled and ready for final testing (with some minor tests along the way to fill time on broth culture days).

We still need to look into having some of the submittable parts sequenced... Which ones should we do? And should we wait to send them in a batch?
