Week 1

25 June 2007

Prepared LB agar plates.

Transformation

  1. resuspended the following from Registry plates:
    • BBa_I15008 - ho1 (P2 21A, Kan)
    • BBa_I15009 - PcyA (P2 21C, Kan)
    • BBa_R0084 - OmpR positive promoter (P1 11H, Amp)
    1. Punctured foil with pipette tip.
    2. Resuspended in 15uL ddH2O.
    3. Stored in-20 (after taking 1uL for transformation).
  1. Transformed into competent DH5alpha cells with shorter incubation times as follows:
    • 30min on ice after DNA addition
    • 10min on ice after heat shock
    • 30min at 37degrees with LB

Transformation from Monday

  • Transformation of BBa_I15008 and BBa_I15009 failed. No colonies on plates
  • Small number of colonies on BBa_R0084 plate.
  • Placed in cool room

Transformation

  1. Resuspended the following parts in 15uL:
  • BBa_B0034 (RBS, plate 1 3O, Amp)
  • BBa_C0051 (C1 repressor, plate 1 5G, Amp)
  • BBa_B0010 (Terminator, plate 2 3P, Amp)
    • Think some DNA may have remained in wells
  1. Transformed into competent DH5alpha cells from Joe

Streak plates

  1. Streaked the following cells:
  • PJS010 (from solid agar, Amp)
  • Fusion protein (from glycerol stock, Amp?)
  • BBa_I15010 (from solid agar, Kan)

27 June 2007

Transformation

  1. Repeated transformation of failed parts from Monday:
  • BBa_I15008 (Kan)
  • BBa_I15009 (Kan)
    • Used resuspended DNA that was stored on Monday

Liquid culture

  1. Prepared 30mL of Amp LB (100ug/mL). Prepared 5mL Kan LB (50mg/mL).
  2. Aliquoted 5mL Amp LB into 6 50mL falcon tubes
  3. To the Amp LB aliquots single transformed colonies from plates of the following were introduced:
    1. PJS010
    2. Fusion
    3. BBa_B0034
    4. BBa_C0051
    5. BBa_B0010
    6. BBa_R0084
  4. To the Kan LB a single colony from the transformation plate of BBa_I15010 was introduced.
  5. Cells incubated at 37degrees with shaking overnight.

Miniprep

  1. Minipreped the cultures grown overnight after putting aside 1mL for glycerol stocks:
