NOT PCR
- Electroporation of SAMS+TER ligation (from Tuesday ligation... the one that looked bad....)
- Miniprepped the 4 colonies from SAMS
part | concentration | 260/280 | 260/230
|
SAMS 1 | 35,4 | 1,97 | 1,18
|
SAMS 2 | 49,3 | 2,00 | 0,97
|
SAMS 3 | 62,0 | 1,97 | 2,65
|
SAMS 4 | 78,3 | 1,85 | 1,43
|
Terminator | 181,4 | |
|
- Restriction digest of SAMS
- Gel electrophoresis of restriction from ech, fcs, sam5 and sam8
- Result looks great (woohoo!)
- Cut and purified from gel
gene | concentration | 260/280 | 260/230
|
sam5 | 8,2 | 1,62 | 0,02
|
sam8 | 1,4 | 3,04 | 0,01
|
ech | 10,1 | 1,50 | 0,05
|
fcs | 5,2 | 1,61 | 0,03
|
- Used ech and fcs to ligate using 5 μl from ech and 23,5 μl from fcs. There was not enough sam8 for ligation. Redo restriction at some point in the future...
- 4 colonies from sam8 and ech were picked and plated
PCR
- The PCR from yesterday went very well, we had a huge amount of amplified biobrick DNA of the different parts. Agarose gel electrophoresis was used to test if the different pieces of DNA created by PCR had the correct length.
gene | concentration | 260/280 | 260/230
|
sam5 | 361,6 | 1,91 | 2,13
|
sam8 | 323,8 | 1,92 | 2,06
|
ech | 236,5 | 1,91 | 2,24
|
fcs | 321,4 | 1,90 | 2,22
|
- Amplified DNA was purified and cut with different restriction enzymes. After restriction, DNA was purified again before ligation.
gene | concentration | 260/280 | 260/230
|
sam5 | 21,8 | 1,65 | 1,33
|
sam8 | 17,1 | 1,56 | 1,16
|
ech | 13,8 | 1,78 | 1,46
|
fcs | 20,9 | 1,70 | 0,20
|
- After the restriction, sam5, sam8 and terminator were ligated in a three-way ligation. The same was done for ech, fcs and terminator. We also started a ligation of just sam5 and sam8 and ech and fcs.
