Everyone who is coming tonight please be present 7:00pm sharp

Lab Notes:

Started 4X5mL overnights of E1010 and I0050 at 8:30 am. Should be ready for miniprep tonight.

-ED, JB

No growth in over nights - left these shaking in 37 incubator because they may be "slow growers"
Started new overnights of E1010, I0500, and psb2k3 (all DH5alpha) at 2200hrs incubating in the incubator by the autoclave - plates were also streaked (&labeled corresponding to the tubes)
Also made overnights for massive colonies seen on 48hr growth of E1010 in XL
Made some Kan plates

July 14

Schedule:

AL,JP,NK

General Notes:

If you are scheduled during the day please be in the lab at 1230hrs (PM) Don't forget that the Bio-Sci doors lock at 1900hrs so if you are trying to get in after 1900hrs call 492-2911

Things to be continued today (CZ)
1. Put LB plates in 4 degree fridge
2. Plate 20 microlitre of DH5 alpha on a kan plate as a control
3. Xba1/EcoRI double digest
NOTE: Sequential digestion is needed. Start with 1 microlitre of Xba1 and 2 microlitre of 10x Tango and incubate for an hour. Then add 1 microlitre of EcoRI and 2.5 microlitre of 10X Tango and incubate for an hour.
4. Miniprep on the colonies picked on July 13 at 10pm. They are in the shaker in the back room. Note the colonies picked were also streaked on kan plates in the 37 degree incubator. Erin's colonies are in the shaker in the front room.

If you need anything else call me(Celine). Number on the blackboard. Thank you.�

<b/>Lab Notes:</b> JP, AL, NK, JB(?)

July 16

Schedule:

CZ,VH,AF

General Notes:

1. Because we didn't get into lab till late (because of locked doors), did not complete restriction on newly mini'd plasmids. Can be completed today (isolate arabinose promoter and RFP)
2. All of the restriction product (for J61003 XbaI/EcoR1) were ran and cut - no sample remaining

Lab Notes:

Completed gel extraction of E,X digested J61003. (in box in -20)

Restriction digests of E1010 (X,S) and I0500 (E,x), ran on 0.8% gel. E1010 expected a band at 680bp, I0500 expected a band at 1200 bp. Got two positive lanes for E1010: XL1 and XL2 minipreps. Cut out bands and put in -20. No positive for I0500.

July 17

Schedule:

ED,VH,AF

Lab Notes:

Gel extracted E1010 from yesterday's slices.

Mini-prep on A0500 from a culture labelled with red marker. If anyone knows what cell line is in this culture, please post.
It is I0500 and it is DH5alpha unless otherwise labelled . .. only the E1010 had both DH5alpha and XL10gold overnights -MC

Let's not do anything more with it then, because the DH5as aren't working due to them already having their own Kan resistance. - ED

Ligation of E1010 (RFP) into J61003. Used 4 different ligation conditions. These are sitting on the instructor's bench at the front of the room. These need to be transformed into XL10 Gold and plated on Amp tomorrow. Try transforming 1uL and 10uL.

General Notes:

There is now a Jar O' Love in the lab; Please do not drink chemicals from said jar o'love. Check it out - it's at the front on the instructors bench. It's to give shout outs for people who are rocking out and 'taking one for the team'.

Lab Notes:

Miniprep Lig3 (8 samples) overnights - JB
Made 1L LB broth (16 bottles) at the back to be put away in the sterile cupboards tomorrow
Ran Gel of JB's Minipreps after digestion with Xba and Spe. All of the colonies were positive (band at 1.2 kB).
Did some dishes - we should learn how to use the dishwasher

July 21

Schedule:

JP,NK,AL

General Notes:

Since it doesn't look like Nik will be showing up, maybe just call Alex and see if it works for him.

All of the ligations of RFP into J61003 turned out. They are labelled JB July 19 1-8 in the DNA box. Transform 1 of them into XL10 Gold and plate on Amp with Tetracycline plates. You will have to add the Tet to the plates beforehand. I don't know what concentraion, but James suggested 1 ug/mL. Try plating different amounts.

The reason that I am making these suggestions is that I read that XL10Golds are Tet resistant, so we can maybe induce the expression of RFP with the Tet because it is under the Tet promotor and then we can see the RFP.

As always, call me if you need anything.

-ED

Lab Notes:

1. got into building
2. waited for peers - no shows
3. tried to break into room by climbing through roof (cement goes all the way up)
4. went home... will complete work tomorrow - sorry i'll get swipe access asap...

July 22

Schedule:

JP,AL,NG

General Notes:

How does 7:00pm sound?

Laboratory Notes:

Transformed XL10 gold cells with J61003 (with RFP ligated in). Split cell aliquot into two 50microL aliquots and added 1microL DNA from ligation sample 1 and from ligation sample 4. Covered AMP plates with 50microL 1microg/ml tet, spread, let sit. Plated (1) 50microL sample and (1) 5microL + 45microL LB onto Tet/Amp plates for #'s 1&4. They are in 37C incubator. The remaining transformed cells are in +4C labeled July 22.

Serious Quote of the Month

Faust
Then shall I see, with vision clear,
How secret elements cohere,
And what the universe engirds,
And give up huckstering with words

-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

July 23

Schedule:

VH,CZ,JG

Laboratory Notes:
1. Add more Tet on ligation plates from July 22. Hopefully red colonies will appear!
2. Transformation of XL10Gold with
- Butanol CoA dehydrogenase (1 in 1000 dilution)
- Butenoyl CoA dehydrogenase (1 in 1000 dilution)
- J23018 (RFP positive control)

20 and 100 microlitres of transformed culture plated on Amp plate and incubate at 37 degrees

The leftover mixture is stored in 4 degree fridge in case of no growth.
3. Repeate overnight ligation from July 22. The exact amounts of insert, vector etc. are on the blackboard.

For tomorrow:
1. Pick colonies for transformed plates.
2. Plate ligation mixtures with appropriate amount of Tet.
3. Observe red colonies from the July 22 ligation plates if the cells are still alive.

Memorable Quote:
Don't force it. Let it come out naturally.

July 24

Schedule:

AF,ED,NG

Lab Notes:

Transformed I0500 (arabinose promotor) into HB101 competent cells. Plated 2, 20, 200 uL on Kan.

Transformed ligations from yesterday into XL10 gold. Plated 100 uL on Amp.

RFP control from yesterday worked, but sadly our ligations are not expressing any RFP. It was still exciting to see red control cells. It seems as if the Tet promotor is induced at a low level without any Tet.

Started 4X5ml overnights of enoyl coA hydratase and butyryl coa DH. There seems to be some confusion with the naming of these proteins. These are the names that I have used in the BioBricks. We will be able to tell if they are correctly labelled when we do the digests. Enoyl coa hydratase is about 840 bp and butyryl coa DH is about 1200 bp.

Note on agarose gels: Use only the wide combs (8 lanes) because we are having to many problems with the narrow lanes. This may mean that you will need to pour multiple gels (oh my). Also, try and run two ladders per gel until we get the ladder problem sorted out. Also, make sure that you zoom in on the gel when taking a picture.

Note on Tet: should be stored 12.5 mg/mL in 50% ethanol, 50% water solution. This is a 1000X solution. Keep this in mind when using Tet again.

-ED, AF, James

July 25

Schedule:

Jp,MC,VH

General Notes:

Use of wide combs- 5microL of sample works well with 3.5microL of ladder. Make sure you stir up the ladder before use!

Lab Notes:

Completed minipreps of enoylcoa hydratase and butyryl coa dh. They are in the new box with the green tape. I think that there are two types of digests we should be doing: one to make sure we have the right stuff (digest with EcoR1 and Pst1) and one to clone in the RBS. To clone in the RBS, cut B0034 with Eco and Spe and cut the enoyl coa hydratase and butyryl coa dh with Eco and Xba.

Check to see if any colonies have grown on I0500 plates in incubator. There weren't any visible on Adam's transformations this morning. James also transformed some this morning, so they may be hard to see. If there are colonies, start overnights and see if Jori can do minipreps tomorrow. If Jori can't make it, get ahold of me and I can. AND if there are no colonies, just post here and I'll go check the plates in the morning.

I also forgot to start glycerol stocks of our enoly coa hydratase and butyryl coa dh. If you guys could restart some overnights from the plates in the fridge so I can do it tomorrow that would be great.

I had to rush to work this morning and didn't get any of this written in the lab book. So you guys can make fun of me or whatever. I guess I belong in the Science Hall of Shame.

-ED

Enny = Enoly CoA Hydratase
Benny = Butytyl CoA DH

Checked plates
- Adam - no growth: parafilmed and put in 4 fridge
- James'? J23018: red colonies parafilmed and put in 4 fridge (was this the control?)

Overnights of Benny & Enny
- 3x 5mlLB each

Restrictions
- B0034 with SPE & ECO
- Enny with Xba & ECO
-Benny with Xba & ECO
These are stored in the -20 freezer

- MC, NK, VH, NG, JP

For Tomorrow:
- Glycerol stocks of Enny & Benny (these colonies are likely different from the transformations as it was not marked out which colonies were picked for transformations)
- Gels for restrictions of B0034, Enny & Benny - cut out the bands; gel extractions? (if there is time)

July 27

Schedule:

JP,MC,NK
The theme is Foul music Friday - bring any bad music you have (or embarassed that you have in your collection)

General Notes:

1. This is whats on the agenda for this evening:

Lab book:

Digest Enny(1,4), Benny (1,2) B0034(2,4) with PST, XBA, SPE
Enny with PST and XBA
Benny with PST and XBA
B0034 with PST and SPE
O/N of Benny and Enny glycerol stock (3 each)

Note the 4 degree fridge at the back is out of commision. All iGEM materials have been moved to the room where we take pictures of gels. The door labelled IGEM. Nik is here on saturday and Celine can show on sunday.

- JG, NK, MC, JP, and James (cos he loves us)

Jame's Fun Tip of the Day: If you want to run a gel for a shorter period of time ad the EtBR to the gel rather than the buffer. You can add ~4ul to the gel rather than 10ul to the buffer.

+Since it doesn't look like Nik will be showing up, maybe just call Alex and see if it works for him.
+All of the ligations of RFP into J61003 turned out.  They are labelled JB July 19 1-8 in the DNA box.  Transform 1 of them into XL10 Gold and plate on Amp with Tetracycline plates. You will have to add the Tet to the plates beforehand. I don't know what concentraion, but James suggested 1 ug/mL.  Try plating different amounts.
+The reason that I am making these suggestions is that I read that XL10Golds are Tet resistant, so we can maybe induce the expression of RFP with the Tet because it is under the Tet promotor and then we can see the RFP.
+As always, call me if you need anything.

+'''Lab Notes:'''
+Transformed I0500 (arabinose promotor) into HB101 competent cells. Plated 2, 20, 200 uL on Kan.
+Transformed ligations from yesterday into XL10 gold. Plated 100 uL on Amp.
+RFP control from yesterday worked, but sadly our ligations are not expressing any RFP. It was still exciting to see red control cells. It seems as if the Tet promotor is induced at a low level without any Tet.
+Started 4X5ml overnights of enoyl coA hydratase and butyryl coa DH. There seems to be some confusion with the naming of these proteins. These are the names that I have used in the BioBricks.  We will be able to tell if they are correctly labelled when we do the digests.  Enoyl coa hydratase is about 840 bp and butyryl coa DH is about 1200 bp.
+Note on agarose gels:  Use only the wide combs (8 lanes) because we are having to many problems with the narrow lanes. This may mean that you will need to pour multiple gels (oh my). Also, try and run two ladders per gel until we get the ladder problem sorted out. Also, make sure that you zoom in on the gel when taking a picture.
+Note on Tet:  should be stored 12.5 mg/mL in 50% ethanol, 50% water solution.  This is a 1000X solution.  Keep this in mind when using Tet again.

+'''Lab Notes:'''
+Completed minipreps of enoylcoa hydratase and butyryl coa dh.  They are in the new box with the green tape.  I think that there are two types of digests we should be doing: one to make sure we have the right stuff (digest with EcoR1 and Pst1) and one to clone in the RBS. To clone in the RBS, cut B0034 with Eco and Spe and cut the enoyl coa hydratase and butyryl coa dh with Eco and Xba.
+Check to see if any colonies have grown on I0500 plates in incubator. There weren't any visible on Adam's transformations this morning.  James also transformed some this morning, so they may be hard to see.  If there are colonies, start overnights and see if Jori can do minipreps tomorrow. If Jori can't make it, get ahold of me and I can. AND if there are no colonies, just post here and I'll go check the plates in the morning.
+I also forgot to start glycerol stocks of our enoly coa hydratase and butyryl coa dh. If you guys could restart some overnights from the plates in the fridge so I can do it tomorrow that would be great.
+I had to rush to work this morning and didn't get any of this written in the lab book. So you guys can make fun of me or whatever.  I guess I belong in the Science Hall of Shame.
