week 20: 10 September - 16 September

TuYV

---

Another two colonies PCR with pJET sequencing primers were done to find out colonise containing TuYV coat protein with readthrough and coat protein with readthrough with his-tag. Finally another colony containing either the coat protein and readthrough or coat protein and readthrough with his-tag was identified.

All the colonies for colony PCR were minipreped.

TuYV constructs (PCR products) were digested, ligated into backbone from BBa_J04450 and transformed into MachI strain. In parallel, TuYV constructs (PCR products) were digested, ligated after the IPTG induced promoter again,

and transformed into MachI 

The next day we saw very promising colonies and the colony PCR confirmed that we successfully put TuYV insert into the chloramphenical backbone, but for adding them at the downstream of IPTG induced promoter, colony PCR revealed that there was only the backbone containing the IPTG induced promoter in the E.coli.

Polero

---

Cells containing the plasmid( IPTG induced promoter with polero coat protein) were induced and lysised by French Press.

Dialysis and purification were done. Samples were ready to send for EM test.

Hepatitis B general

---

10 September

• 2nd try colony PCR of the transformations from 4. September (with sequencing primers)

-> 6 out of 9 samples show an insert of the right size

Hepatitis B outside modification

---

• 10 September (Kees)

• Colony PCR

The colonies were picked after which part of it was put in pcr-tubes for checking the content and part pas plated for continuation of the colony.

• 11 September (Kees)

• Reverse PCR coil modification Same was done as on 7 September, with the following modifications: - 25 pcr cycles instead of 15. This will yield more template, taking the risk of modifications. - Analyse pcr result on a agarose gel before further processing. - Ligate overnight at 16 degrees if gel shows linear band at about 3kb. (protocols: http://www.neb.com/nebecomm/products_intl/faqproductM0202.asp, http://www.idtdna.com/pages/docs/user-guides-and-protocols/mutagenesis-application-guide.pdf, p.32) - Digest with DpnI after ligation

• 12 September (Kees)

• Digestion and plating After digestion of the ligated sample and the non-ligated sample, the cells were transformed: - Template (positive control) - Ligated + digested - Digested only

• 13 September (Kees)

One colony grew on the DpnI+Ligated plate. This colony will be checked with colony pcr and inocculated to produce anything that is in there.

Hepatitis B inside modification

---

10 September

• 2nd try colony PCR of the transformations from 4. September (with sequencing primers)

-> one colony seems to have the correct insert in the pSB1C3 backbone -> no conclusion can be made about samples containing the Hep-inside coil fragment in the Bba_J04500 brick

GFP modification

---

10 September

• colony PCR of the transformations from 6. September (PCR step 1 in pJET) - using pJET sequencing primers

-> no band on the gel

11 September

• step 1 of the PCR reaction

- With different template concentrations (from 20ng until 0.2ng added to the mix) - With two different primer sets (both with the forward primer adding part of the coil + once with the GFP reverse primer adding a histag at the C-terminal and once with the sequencing reverse primer) -> bands of the expected size visible (even the samples that contain a very low ammount of template). There is also a second band visible (decreasing in strenght with decreasing template concentration) -> something went wrong with the second set of reactions (the reactions where made in duplo)

-> this shows that the experiment can be continued with the sample containing only 0.2ng template DNA (so the risk of transforming with the original template is lowered)

• Of the GFP-coil 1st step (both primer sets) in pJET (samples with 0.2ng template in the PCR mixture)

• Transformation With DH5α using different amount of ligation mixture for the electro transformation (1, 3 and 5 µL)

-> more colonies where growing on the plates containing transformants transformed with 5µL

12 September

• Colony PCR of the transformations (GFP-coil step1 in pJET in DH5α)

-> the transformation was succesfull - there are colonies present that contain an insert with the expected size
