1)

  • EF colonies present! So, we miniprepped them in triple
  • Nanodrop concentrations:
Part concentration (ng/μl) 260/280 λ
EF A 74,9 1,89
EF B 63,1 1,87
EF C 53,9 1,90
  • We performed a digest with EcoRI and SpeI to cut out the insert and check it's length. Enzymes were added separately, with 1h in between. Total volume was 30µl.


2)

  • Results from yesterday's restriction test were inconclusive, because the DNA ladder didn't run properly so the length of the fragments couldn't be read. Therefore, we did it again...
  • Restriction=OK! Test 1 completed.


3)

  • Test 2: cutting with 2 enzymes (see above) subsequently (1h incubation in between) in a volume of 30µl. Using a larger volume should dilute the glycerol, which inhibits cutting. After that, the products are incubated overnight to allow full restriction.
