Preparing Competent Cells
- Transformed plasmid, pCS26 into Top 10 cells with NEB Quick Ligase Buffer and Anarctic Phosphatase Buffer to verify if the E.coli cells are able to uptake the larger plasmid. We wanted to check the transformation efficiency of a 10KB plasmid. This was plated on LB+Kan plates.
- To prepare for making competent cells, we grew overnight cultures in 5 mL of LB broth of Top 10 cells and XL Gold Ultracompotent cells (Stratagene)

An Assortment of Miscellaneous Tasks
This morning I helped Carol and Jeremy work with Johnathon, Carol's high school student. We made LB+ CM 35 broth as well as AK, AC, C and K plates. We also gave him a tour (led by Jeremy) of the Health Sciences Centre and our labs. In the afternoon I read through the Ethics Webinar report online and did a write-up on the Ethics Webinar for Jamie for the July newsletter. I also edited some write-ups for Mandi that are going up on the Wiki to show our collaboration with both the U of A and U of L teams. Sequencing came back today and it looks like the B0015 terminator was not successfully cloned in. Because of this, tomorrow I will have to re-digest J13002-LuxOD47E and B0015 to try construction again. I will follow this with transformation and plating.
