Today we made the ligation of the YFP part in the biofusion vector that contains the ADH1 promoter.
Then we transformed this construction in E. coli that growth over-night in the plate.

finO and finP with pGEM - confirmation
Once we confirmed that several samples actually have finO and finP inserts ligated into pGEM vector (by the digestion procedure performed yesterday), we could proceed to the final step on confirming our finOP-pGEM ligations.
We performed a PCR for each miniprep samples we got, using a specific forward primer for our inserts (finO and finP) and a reverse primer that is specific for pGEM vector (primer M13, see pGEM manual). This will allow us to verify that we have the insert ligated into the plasmid and, further more, will allow us to check whether or not our inserts are indeed in the correct frame position.
