6/7 we got benches

• we got benches
• pcr of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I716253:Design HPI/katG from Salmonella]

1. well... getting the mutated PCR prod overnight. going to xform tmrw, hope it works!

• programmed pcr on machine upstairs (#6)
• we got computers
• AGAR SUX, for future reference:

1. nuke @ 20:00 min, 50% power.
2. water bath in tap water for 5-10 min
3. thaw the antibiotic right now!!
4. FIRE for disinfecting
5. pour that stuff. set 15 min, then marker it then bag

6/6 waiting for oligos

• Made oligos and constructs with Vai, for getting wbbL and neuS from pJ23006-Bca9106
• We tried the P_tet/RFP triple/double digest to make a composite part.

1. FAIL
2. probably source DNA is bad
3. so much for that activity...

Other stuff: I won speed scrabble. even though I kind of cheated ish (didn't stop when Sam said stop"

6/5 coolbeans

• Finalized oligos to order with Vai
• Learned about LB broth-ing and LB/Agar plating. Thanks, Austin and Sam :)
• Learned about the many composite part-making methods. Props 2 Chris

1. prefix/suffix is weaksauce
2. Use the AlwnI or BsaI or BglI, in conjuction with BglII or BamHI << (Did this today)
3. DBBS
4. 3 antibiotic; MIT endorses, used for BioBrick 1.0. Triple digest = bad
5. 1-2-3 method << 'Our Goal' in a few weeks. should be leet.

• Planned and vicariously did the making of P_tet+RFP brick (see Vai Notebook)

Other Notes: All oligos are being ordered, w00t w00t. Ayu 18:36, 5 June 2007 (EDT)

6/4 Training Finishes, Real Stuff Starts

• Incubated some colonies
• Miniprep'd already-been-incubated colonies (2)
• Double digest of the 2 minipreps + parent plasmid
• Colony PCR'd the incubated E.coli
• Ran gel of the digest + PCR

• >>> PCR product / Miniprep 1 / Parent Plasmid / Miniprep 2 / Ladder >>>
• No bands for PCR or parent. Confused? Other ones look great.

As for me: Wiki acc works now.
Designing oligos and will compare with Vai. Ayu 18:19, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
