  1. the plates with ligation A (blp + GFP) where fetched from the blue light installation. there was no GFP signal. the following actions will be taken:
    • the plasmids will be purified from the colonies and will be sequenced using primer 2260.
    • next time we will probably put them in liquid cultures under the LEDs while shaking gently. also, other parameters that need to be considered are being researched.
    • they will not be exposed to the light as long anymore. we decided that 1h will be more then enough.
    • possible bleaching?
  2. a colony from all three plates with the ligA-construct were taken and ented in liquid culture. this was needed to check wether the colonies were still alive.
    • culture 13/08
    • culture 14/08 (1)
    • culture 14/08 (2)
  3. by 5pm, one of the liquid cultures had grown and was miniprepped. 20μl was sent for sequencing together with 5μM of primer 2260.
Part concentration (ng/μl) 260/280 λ
ligA (14/08 (1)) 23,1 2,21

4. two electroporations were performed and plated on LB medium. one with ligC ( + ) and one with pSB3K3 DNA.
