  • Cells didn't grow. Yet again...
  • Re-plated the ligation products (SAMS and EF)
  • We propose 3 tests to check if the restriction digest (esp. between EcoRI and XbaI, because they lie very close together) works properly:

Test 1: Cut every plasmid (sam8, sam5, ech, Fcs) separately with EcoRI, XbaI and -only sam8 and fcs- with SpeI.

Test 2: Cut subsequently with EcoRI and XbaI, leaving an incubation period of 1h between two digests. Total volume: 30µl, to dilute glycerol (which inhibits restriction)

Test 3: Use pUC18 vector

  • Made fluid cultures of sam8, sam5, ech, fcs
