KATIE
Planning the Second Life Project
Project Proposal was made and it appears the island will consist of three domains:
- Biobrick Simulator
- Synthetic Kingdom
- Virtual Lab
I have been assigned to the virtual lab and it will be mainly my responsibility to organize the activities that can be done in the building. A layout for the island is also in the process of being made.

VICKI
PCR Amplification of LuxPQ
Purpose:
To amplify LuxPQ on TOPO II Blunt on a PCR and verify that the sample really does consist of LuxPQ.
Materials and methods:
- DNA template: LuxPQ on TOPO II blunt
- Forward primer: LuxPQ forward (T_m = 60 degrees Celsius)
- Reverse primer: LuxPQ reverse (T_m = 60 degrees Celsius)
- Expected PCR product size: 3855 bp
- DNA template concentration:
- Colony 1: 254.7 ng/uL
- Colony 9: 168.7 ng/uL
2 amplification tubes were made for each colony, in addition to a negative control tube (for a total of 5 tubes)
Master Mix contents (for 5 tubes):
- 10X PCR Buffer minus Mg 2+ (25 uL)
- 10mM dNTPs mixture (5 uL)
- 50mM MgCl2 (7.5 uL)
- Forward primer [10 uM] (7.5 uL)
- Reverse primer [10 uM] (7.5 uL)
- Taq DNA polymerase [5 units/uL] (2.0 uL)
- Autoclaved distilled HOH (190.5 uL)
TOTAL: 245 uL of Master Mix, for 5 tubes of 49 uL each.
Each PCR tube requires between 100-200 ng of template DNA. Accordingly, the Colony 1 sample was diluted to 200 ng/uL. 1 uL of DNA template was added to the following tubes:
- Tube 1: Colony 1
- Tube 2: Colony 1
- Tube 3: Colony 9
- Tube 4: Colony 9
- Tube 5: dd HOH (negative control).
PCR steps:
- Denaturation: 94 degrees C, 3 minutes
- Amplification: 36 cycles of:
- Denaturation (94 degrees C, 45 seconds);
- Annealing (55 degrees C, 45 seconds);
- Extension (72 degrees C, 4 minutes)}
- Final extension: 72 degrees C, 10 minutes
- Hold temperature: 4 degrees C
Results:
None to offer here – the PCR tubes had mysteriously vanished from the PCR machine when I returned to collect them after the PCR had finished.
