May 12

Roxanne

  • Prepared LB agar
  • added Tetracyclin (100ug/mL) –
  • Poured LB + ampt plates

Roxanne, Alix, Ashley, Megan, Mackenzie, Kirsten

  • transferred pE43 (DH5α) cells from gylcerol stock to 5mL LB+Tet test tube (x8)
  • placed in orbital shaker overnight at 37°C

May 13

Roxanne

  • Removed test tubes from shaker (16hrs incubation) and placed in deli fridge

May 14

Roxanne, Alix, Ashley, Mackenzie, Kirsten

  • Preformed alkaline lysis miniprep on pE43 plasmid -lost plasmid from 2 tubes
  • obtained 6X pE43 plasmid (2X ohbR, 2x ohbB, ohbA, ohbC)

May 19

Roxanne, Alix, Ashley, Kirsten, Megan, Mackenzie

  • Gel Electrophoresis : 1% agarose in TAE

Lane 1: Ladder

Lane 2: ohbR1

Lane 3: ohbR2

Lane 4: ohbC

Lane 5: ohbB1

Lane 6: ohbB2

Lane 7:ohbA

Lane 8:ohbC

Lane 9: ohbB1

Lane 10:ohbB2

  • DNA quantification by UV spec 260nm : 2.013 280nm: 1.105 260/280 : 1.984 Concentration: 2517µg/mL PCR of ohbA, (ohbB)x2, ohbC, (ohbR)x2
  • Took picture of the gel - it did not turn out.

May 21

Roxanne

  • Made 50X TAE Buffer
  • Running PCR amplicons & RS/pSB1A2 ligation product on a 1% agarose gel
  • Jeff gave tutorial on primer design and quick-change mutagenesis to Kirsten, Ashley, Mackenzie, Fan, Lisza, Roxanne

Ohb PCR-Phusion (Rox).JPG

May 26

Roxanne, Alix, Megan, Mackenzie, Kirsten

  • Gel did not turn out gave tutorial on open wetware and the igem registry

May 28

Roxanne

  • reran the gel from may 19th, only primer dimers present

Ohb PCR (Roxanne).JPG Roxanne, Ashley, Alix, Kirsten, Mackenzie, Megan

  • Redoing the PCR of ohbA, ohbB, ohbC and OhbR with Phusion DNA Polymerase

Roxanne

  • refilled the tip boxes

May 29

Roxanne

  • prepared glycerol stocks for autoclaving

June

June 1

Roxanne

  • Ran a 1% agarose in TAE gel of the PCR products from May 28th.
  • 5µL of ladder, 2µL of DNA

Lane 1: ladder

Lane 2: ohbA (conc.1x)

Lane 3: ohbA (conc.1/10)

Lane 4: ohbB(1x)

Lane 5: ohbB(1/10)

Lane 6: ohbC(1x)

Lane 7: ohbC(1/10)

Lane 8: ohbR (1x)

Lane 9: ohbR(1/10)

Lane 10: ohbR(1x)

  • Gel did not show any amplification

Mackenzie & Roxanne

  • Transformation of pSB1A3 into DH5α
  • Made 2 aliquots of pSB1A3 and 1 of pUC19
  • plated pSB1A3-1: straight and dilute, pSB1A3-2: straight and dilute, pUC19: straight only incubated overnight at 37°C

June 3

Roxanne

  • positive control worked
  • Think the transformation worked but slight problem. The plasmid contains a suicide gene. Therefore, any cells that took up the plasmid would die.
  • planning new genes to transform
  • GENE LOCATION pSB1A3 + IPTG Inducible RFP 1-1k Bba_I13522, pTET GFP 2-8A Bba_I13521, pTet mRFP 2-6O Bba_I13600, pTET CFP 1-24E BBA-B0015, double terminator 1-23L

June 4

  • Picked some glycerol stock GFP for the AIF visit
  • made ampicillin plates 371.39g/mol X100mmol/LX0.002L = 74.278mg

June 15

Transformed the pTet and EYFP genes from the Biobrick registry


June 16

  • Picked colonies in the early morning for Mini prep in the afternoon
  • Restriction digested the plasmids: pTet with SpeI and PstI, EYFP with XbaI and PstI

June 17

  • Quenched the restriction digests from the day before

June 18

  • Checked the concentrations of:
    • Riboswitch-1 : 4549u/.mL
    • Riboswitch-2 : 4283ug/mL
    • rpsA TIR-1 : 106ug/mL

Transformation of mRBS+n-term, pBAD+tetR, pSB1A3+lumazine, pSB1A3+c-term, pSB1A3+n-term

Negative control: water+25 µL DNA

Transformed according to iGEM protocol. Plated on ampicillin plates at 100µL and 400 µL volumes and incubated overnight.

PCR of EYFP and CFP according to protocol of July 30th.

The transformations seemed to have all worked, although there are no colonies on plates marked pSBB1A3+N-term and several on the negative control plate. Speculation: tubes were switched or improper labeling.
