2009.8.29
A mistake was made when digesting 1-1M vector: there is a RFP part between restriction site XbaI and SpeI, so 1-1M vector should be digested by EcoRI and SpeI!

Digest 1-1M vector again DNA purification to extract 1-1M vector, ligate the Sal insert and 1-1M vector and transform the ligation product: Sal insert + 1-1M vector

2009.9.6
Ligate the Sal_T7ptag+AraC_SupD insert(EP) and 1-7G(K+) backbone System I mistake the plasmid for backbone, so ligate again and transform the ligation product.

I made a great mistake, the length of Sal_RBS_T7ptag+AraC_SupD insert should be a little larger than 5k and the backbone be 3k, which is not in accordance with the results I got yesterday, indicating that the ligation products are abnormal, so I have to rework.
