Office work

Lab work

Biobrick BBa_J04450 was cloned and miniprepped.

HepB

  • digestion of the HepB core protein PCR product with pre- and suffix (from 11.July) and ligation into BBa_J04500 (an IPTG inducible promoter with RBS)as well as BBa_PSB1K3.ml (linearized plasmid backbone)
  • electro transformation of these constructs with DH5α
  • colony PCR (20 samples of the transformants containing HepB core protein + BBa_J04500; 10 samples of the transformants containing HepB core protein + BBa_PSB1K3.ml

-> the ligation and transformation of the HepB core protein into the linear backbone (BBa_PSB1K3.ml) was not successful -> the colony PCR shows that we have 6 out of 20 colonies with the expected insert size (around 600bp)

TuYV

  • Mach1 electrocompetent E. coli cells were transformed with last week's ligation mixtures (1 and 1H). Results were unsatisfying. No colonies were showed on the sample plates.
  • 'Coat Protein + readthrough' gene amplicons were digested, ligated into pSB1K3 backbone and transformed into our electrocompetent Mach1 E. coli cells. After two attempts and a colony PCR, results were still unsatisfying.


PLRV

After a two week quest for PLRV infected plant material, we obtained infected potato leafs from the Dutch General Inspection Service for Agricultural seed and seed potatoes.
