Wet Lab

Miniprep of the yesterday transformations were done, glycerol stock of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I6007 Inverter TetR (BBa_I6007)] and [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_P1010 Death Cassette (BBa_P1010)] were done and finally they were put at -80°C.


As Prom_T7-RBS-CBP-LOVTAP PCR product migration on the gel didn't worked (in fact there wasn't enough products) July the 9th, a second PCR was done with more cycles (40) to check wether the the primers were accurately designed.

Results: The primers are correct -> Prom_T7-RBS-CBP-LOVTAP was correctly amplified.


A digestion-ligation according iGEM special protocol Biobrick_Assembly_Manual was done with LacI and RBS. And Term was digested (with E and X) to linearize the plasmid.


As [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I6007 Inverter TetR (BBa_I6007)] and [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_P1010 Death Gene (BBa_P1010)] were transformed with a contaminated SOC, we did a PCR with the isolated plasmids to check if the plasmids were correct.

Results: [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_P1010 Death Cassette (BBa_P1010)] sample contain the correct plasmid, [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I6007 Inverter TetR (BBa_I6007)] doesn't.


Finally, a gel extraction was done to purify the digested [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_B0010 Terminator (BBa_B0010)] (linearized plasmid)
