Lab Work - 22/09/09
Stochastic switch team
Today we transformed E.coli JM109 cels with the overnight ligation product from yesterday using the promega protocol. We used the following controls:
- Tube 1: Backbone + insert + ligase (proper ligation)
- Tube 2: Backbone + ligase (control for background ligation level)
- Tube 3: Backbone + insert (control for ligase effectiveness)
These were left in the incubator for an hour and then plated out (2 plates per tube 200ul and 50ul) onto Amp + Tet LB plated and put in the 37C incubator overnight.
Today again we redid the digests of the sac miniprep however again there was no DNA present.
