EPF-Lausanne/7 July 2009

Wet Lab

We have to grow the 3 strains generously sent by Tom Beatty

The three strains are :

• R.Palustris CEA001 (wild type) ; should be grown on LB medium only
• R.Palustris BPHP1+ ; should be grown on LB with gentamycin (100 micrograms/ml)
• E.Coli DH10B (pBPH/hmu0) ; should be grown on LB with gentamycin (20 micorgrams/ml)

The transformed LOVTAP and TrpR worked well (N.B. the plasmid of TrpR is pUC19 so the antibiotic resistance is Amp -> see below)

pUC19 plasmid

We did the glycerol stock, located in the -80 fridge, first floor of the iGEM compartement.

Then, a miniprep was done with both cultures. A LOVTAP plasmid aliquot was done, a TrpR plasmid aliquot was done, located in the -20 fridge, 2nd floor.

Cloning Strategy

To design plasmids : software Vector NTI
