-
 
+
-
1. Evaluate the transformation that was done on Friday.
+
-
 
+
-
2. Confirm the correct plasmid (pJQ200)
+
-
 
+
-
3. Find appropriate restriction enzymes that cut by BLASTing all the plasmid's restriction enzyme sites onto the global transcription factors.
+
-
 
+
-
4. Re-design primers for the global transcription factors based on the restriction enzymes we have selected.
+
-
 
+
-
5. Order primers.
+
-
 
+
-
6. Practice regular (non-error prone) PCR with the primers to check that they work.
+
-

-
7. Incorporate the global transcription factors into the plasmid and transform this plasmid into the E.coli.
+
-
 
+
-
8. Conjugate this plasmid into Shewy.

yeah, we can get the DNA template for the kanR gene from the lab.  we'll need to design some primers to PCR amplify it out with the BsaI and Tth111I cut sites.  after cutting with the restriction enzymes, the kanR will have the appropriate sticky ends.  frank suggested that we try ligating the kanR gene to the global regulator gene. (ie. kanR ligated to hlyU) and then stick that into the pJQ200.  this way we can select for succesfull hlyU transformations with kanamycin

== Question and Answer ==
-
 
+
-
Ok, good.  Do those primers still need to be ordered?  And if we follow Frank's suggestion, what will go in place of the gtmR gene?
