Construction of pET3A Derivatives Containing R-bchHID

Construction of pET3a-R-bchH

1.)PCR the gene bchH from Rhodobacter sphaeroides
Materials:

• 1uL R-genomic DNA
• 10uL 5x GC buffer
• 5uL primer
• 0.5uL Phusion
• 5uL DMSO
• 27.5uL H2O

Conditions:

• 98C 30s
• 98C 10s*
• 63C 30s*
• 72C 1:50 min*
• Repeat cycles with * 29x
• 72C 10 min
• 4C forever

2.)Run PCR fragments on gel to make sure they are the correct size, then PCR purify
3.)Digest R-bchH (8/21/07)

• 42uL PCR purified fragment
• 5uL NEB3
• 1.8uL NdeI
• 1.2uL BglII

4.)Run the digested PCR fragment on gel, checking that the size is correct (8/21/07)
5.)Ligate R-bchH with pET3a that is already digested with NdeI and BamHI (8/21/07)

• 4.5uL pET3a
• 12.5uL R-bchH fragment
• 2uL T4 ligase buffer
• 1uL T4 ligase

6.)Transform into NovaBlue (8/21/07)
7.)Inoculate to LB media (pick 10 colonies) (8/22/07)
8.)Miniprep cells with pET3a-R-bchH (8/23/07)
9.)Sequence

Construction of pET3a-R-bchHI
