Digested for 1 hour at 36 °C DNA cleanup from enzymatic reactions using microcentrifuge and Quiagen column (n.b. this was intended for gel electrophoresis of upstream fragments to be run in parallel, but the gel was unsuccessful. It later turned out we had the wrong sequences and had not realised the sequences were too short to show on a gel for gel purification.) For RBS 2 and RBS 4 plasmids (post-digestion)
2.Centrifuged for 1 minute, 13000 rpm, room temp. 3.Flow through discarded 4.500 µl buffer QG added to column 5.Centrifuged for 1 minute, 13000 rpm, room temp. 6.Flow through discarded 7.750 µl buffer PE added to column 8.Centrifuged for 1 minute, 13000 rpm, room temp. 9.Flow through discarded 10.Centrifuged for 1 minute, 13000 rpm, room temp. 11.Moved column to fresh 1.5 ml eppendorf 12.30 µl water added 13.Left to stand for 1 minute 14.Centrifuged 13000 rpm, 1 minute, room temp. 15.DNA stored at -20 °C after analysis with a nanodrop spectrophotometer

2.Incubated on ice 30 minutes 3.Heat shocked 42 °C, 30 seconds 4.Ice 2 minutes 5.Aseptically added 250 µl S.O.C. medium 6.Shaken 220 rpm, 37 °C, 1 hour 7.Spread plates of 20 µl and 100 µl made on LB(kanamycin) plates 8.Plates incubated at room temperature over weekend
Incubated overnight at 220 rpm, 37 °C **Friday 27.7.12** 9 am Miniprep of 3A assembled plasmid (from 25.7.12)
