-
 
+
-
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.
