Gel purification of second round PCR product

All the reactions had large smears, but we cut out a band around 2.3kb (expected size) and gel purified as above.

Digestion/Ligation of Second Round PCR product

Per PCR reaction:

Per 2° PCR {A1~G7}
6ul purified DNA {A1~G7}

2ul 10x NEB Buffer 2

2ul 10x BSA

The latter two reactions were gel purified and the following ligations were set up:

Incubated at RT for 2hrs then transformed into competent DH5-alpha. Also included some 5minute ligation incubation controls => 5 minute ligations are significantly (~5x) more efficient than 2 hours.

Pick 2 colonies per death plasmid ligation, and 4 colonies per RBS ligation and culture in LB+Amp for 12hrs.
