  • Digestion screening for A20 (3 samples) and A21 (4 samples): all of them were positive!
  • Over-day experiment on beta-gal activity using BioVision Lactose Assay kit: we diluted 1:100 the overnight cultures of B0033, A5 and V1022 in 30 ml of LB + Amp + 4.5% lactose for B0033 and A5 and in 30 ml of LB + 4.5% lactose without antibiotic for V1022. Then we incubated the three cultures (in 50 ml falcon tubes) at 37°C, 220 rpm; every 2 hours we measured the OD600 and the lactose using the commercial kit.
  • All the streaked plates were grown and all the unshaken falcon tubes confirmed the phenotypes: B9-2, B9new-1, B9new-2 were cloudy, while B5new2-3 and F2620 were normal. This phenotype was not confirmed on the plates, which looked equal.

  • Sequencing results for:
    • A19-1 sequence ok!
    • A19-2 very noisy (NNNNN)
  • We will try to repeat the A21 assembly using A19-1 instead of A19-2 to be sure that the sequence is correct.
  • LB + 2% glucose and LB + 10% glucose preparation (0.5 l for each).
  • Experiment on B9-2 and F2620TOP10: we inoculated 8 ul of their glycerol stocks in 8 ml of LB + Amp (without glucose) to see if the strange phenotype of B9 happened in this conditions. We incubated the 15 ml falcon tubes at 37°C without shaking (anaerobic).
  • We inoculated 8 ul of these glycerol stocks:
    • B9-2 (X2) Amp
    • B5new2-3 Amp
    • F2620TOP10 Amp
    • A21 Cm
    • A21 + 3OC6HSL 1uM Cm
  • in 8 ml of LB + indicated antibiotic + 2% glucose and incubated them at 37°C, 220 rpm for 24 hours.
  • We also inoculated 8 ul of these glycerol stocks:
    • F2620TOP10 Amp
    • B3
    • B4
    • A19-1 Cm
    • A1 Amp
  • in 5 ml of LB + suitable antibiotic.

5th experiment (with this experiment we try to give E.coli a pH and sodium shock to see if something happens).

  • We put 50 ul into 5 ml LB NaCl 70 mM + Amp pH 6,6 falcon for each of the overnight cultures RBS33 - A2 - pNhaA and incubated them for four four hours and a half at 37°C, 220 rpm.
  • OD measure of the three falcons with TECAN in order to make dilutions with a final volume of 3 ml and an OD equal to 0,02.
  • We diluted:
    • RBS into:
      • LB NaCl 600 mM + Amp pH 10
      • LB NaCl 600 mM + Amp pH 11,2
    • pNhaA into:
      • LB NaCl 600 mM + Amp pH 10
      • LB NaCl 600 mM + Amp pH 11,2
    • A2 into:
      • LB NaCl 600 mM + Amp pH 10
      • LB NaCl 600 mM + Amp pH 11,2
  • We started this 6 hours experiment that performed absorbance and fluorescence measures (on three different wells) for each sample every 5 minutes.

October, 10th

  • Experiment with Tecan F200 using A1 construct.
  • After 24 hours from the inoculum, we inoculated 50 ul of:
    • B9-2
    • B9-2 bis
    • B5new2-3
    • F2620TOP10
    • A21
    • A21 + 3OC6HSL 1uM
  • in 30 ml of LB + suitable antibiotic + 10% glucose (anaerobic) in order to begin a massive fermentation. We added 3OC6HSL 1 uM to A21 and 1%w/v of ethanol to B9-2 bis cultures.
  • We incubated the fermentations at 37°C, 220 rpm for 24 hours.
  • Before incubation, we aliquoted 200 ul of all these cultures (except B9-2 + 1%EtOH) in the microplate reader (samples in triplicate). We incubated them for 24 hours.


  • Miniprep for:
    • A19-1
    • B3
    • B4
    • B5new2-3
  • Digestion:
    • A19-1 (S-P)
    • B3 (X-P)
    • B4 (X-P)
    • B5new2-3 (X-P-ClaI)
  • Gel run: unfortunately B5new2-3 had some undigested bands near the band of interest, so we decided to repeat this digestion the following day. Moreover, F2620TOP10 had a bright band with high molecular weight (nicked DNA) and the band of interest looked a bit smeared, maybe digestion failed. We decided to repeat this digestion the following day as well.
  • Gel cut for B3(X-P), B4(X-P) and A19-1(S-P). We stored the cut gel at +4°C.

  • We repeated the digestion for F2620TOP10(S-P) and B5new2-3(X-P-ClaI).
  • Gel run/cut for the two plasmids: bands were good.
  • Gel extraction for:
    • F2620TOP10(S-P)
    • B5new2-3(X-P-ClaI)
    • B3(X-P)
    • B4(X-P)
    • A19-1(S-P)
  • Unfortunately we had a very low DNA yield for almost all of them: A19-1(S-P) and F2620(S-P) could not be used :'(
