Done:
- Transform E1b - Done with AMP plates. Two plates of this in the incubator. One may have been unsuccessful.
- MP I13033A and J06801A (two each; also freezer stocks of these, one each), MP of I13504 A, B.
- Label may have been switched between the two parts. Run a sample PD to check before proceeding.
- The two that may have been switched are I13033A and J06801A - the ones that have the resistances written on them. The other ones were done later and there should be no problems.
- Label may have been switched between the two parts. Run a sample PD to check before proceeding.
- MP o/n for N2 (4 colonies: A,B,C,D) and R0062 (colonies: C, D, E, F)
To Do:
- MP O/N of E1b
- MP of N2 (A,B,C,D) and R0062 (C,D,E,F)
- Digest, GE, purify, quantitate:
- I13033 A, S/P
- J06801 A, E/X
- Q04400 C, X/P (assuming R0011 was cut with S/P)
- PD length check I13504 AB
Note: We are out of EtBr. Check with Seema.

Anam, Tara, Jovan
- Finished gel purification of J06801, J31003, B0034, E0433, I13033
- MP for Q04400CD, R0062AB
- PD length check for Q04400 CD, R0062AB
Part Name | Part | Plasmid |
R0062 A | X | X |
R0062 B | X | X |
Q04400 C | O | O |
Q04400 D | X | X |
- Quantitation of J06801, J31003, B0034, E0433, I13033
- Nothing showed up for J06801, I13033
- [J31003] = 2.2 ng/uL
- [B0034] = 9.4 ng/uL
- [E0433] = 13.5 ng/uL
- Ligated B0034 + J31003 = E1b (refer to diagram posted up in wet lab area)
- Transformed N1A + S01003D = N2 and its in incubator.
- MP o/n for I13033A (2 copies), J06801A (2 copies), I13504 AB in incubator. (2 copies should be combined into 1 Eppendorf tube each; should end up with 1 new miniprep of I13033A and J06801A. If these MPs are successful, remove/store the old ones)
TO DO:
- Transform E1b
- MP I13033A, and J06801A (and make stock if there isn't any in the -80 freezer of this)
- Don't do PD length check on these because it has already been done before and has passed it.
- Digest, GE, purify, quantitate:
- I13033 A, S/P
- J06801 A, E/X
- Q04400 C, X/P (assuming R0011 was cut with S/P)
- MP and PD length check I13504 AB
- MP o/n for N2 (4 colonies: A,B,C,D)

TO DO:
- Miniprep all above parts and length check
- Transform:
- J06801 (2005) - it's in the source box (this is a larger composite part containing J06501)
- B0034 - also in source box, if not, get it from Registry plates
- Q04400 - re-transform using more DNA to see if we get more colonies and transform 2005/2006 version in the source box
- J31005 - chloramphenicol resistance, just in case we need it
- Continue cataloging and organization (Charles: I'll be dropping by to help out with that)
