Plan

Aim: Create yeast cells that express LDLR on their cell membrane

Methods:

7/6

Overview:
1.PCR LDLR gene from plasmid containing LDLR cDNA
2.gel-purify DNA from the PCR product
3.insert the DNA to vector (iGEM parts)
4.transform into E. coli and select for ampicillin resistance
5.check for transformation success using colony PCR by LDLR primers

pGal1-Kozak-LDLR-terminator
Obtaining DNA:

Resuspended DNA in the following wells with 10ul water:

plate 1 7D

Transformed 1ul of each of the above into DH5a competent cells:

Transformation

We found that the length of these PCR product till now was longer than that of LDLR.

  • read the sequence of LDLR cDNA→the result didn't conform with NCBI datebase
  • change PCR program→didn't get the PCR product whose length was correct
