B1C, B2C, C1, LCD and pSB1A3 were right sized and were miprepped afterwards (elution in 20 μL). Only B1C (VB-pBAD) and RS1+RS2 yielded high concentrations (25,9 ng/μL and 73,1 ng/μL) respectivamente. A new PCR will be done to amplify mipreps with low concentrations.

Monday:

  • Band purification of LuxCD & Lux EG.
  • Gel electrophoresis: Colony PCR of RS2 cut (no extra restriction site) and Luc CDEG. Right sized bands: 11 and 12. Plasmids from preceding colonies were extracted and sized was checked by electrophoresis. Finally they were ligated to B0014 and B0015.

Tuesday:

  • PCR Run

VB psb1C3, VBpsb1A3, VB psb1T3, VB psb1K3, V psb1K5, Lux CD

  • Colony PCR

RS1+RS2: (12 colonies selected) B0014+RS2: (12 colonies selected) B0015+RS2: (12 colonies selected) Lux CD+Lux EG: (4 colonies selected) Positive and negative control

Results: correct controls. Most of the colonies were right sized. Error in Lux CD+EG because the bands were much smaller than expected (1000 bp). Two colonies were chosen in each case. Digestions left overnight: Lux CD from Brick, and Lux EG obtained by PCR. Wrong digestions were eliminated.

Wednesday:

Overnight digestions were finished and 20 μL were run in gel (1%). Digestions showed right size and high DNA concentration. Part Lux CDEG was ligated, transformed and left growing.

  • Colony PCR purification of slected colonies

RS1+RS2 (colonies 2 and 6) B0014+RS2 (colonies 2 and 6) B0015+RS2 (colonies 20 and 23)

Desired parts were obtained.

  • Digestions

RS1+RS2 (E+P) B0014+RS2 (X+P) B0015+RS2 (X+P)

With the last two and RS1+Kan (E+s). The following parts were ligated and transformed:

RS1+Kan+B0014+RS2 in pSB1C3 RS1+Kan+B0015+RS2 in pSB1C3

These were used to insert parts between RS1 and Kan through Gibson Assembly.

  • Amplication and purification of plasmids: PSB1C3, pSB1T3, pSB1K3, pSB1A3, pSB1K. They were very faint and their DNA concentration was vwery low, therefore the plasmids were dismissed. The only one that was kept was pSB1K5 (24ng/μl)
  • PCR run:

Notes B1C, B2C, C1, LCD and pSB1A3 were right sized and were miprepped afterwards (elution in 20 μL). Only B1C (VB-pBAD) and RS1+RS2 yielded high concentrations (25,9 ng/μL and 73,1 ng/μL) respectivamente. A new PCR will be done to amplify mipreps with low concentrations.
