| - | We made check-digest with EcoRI+SpeI to examine the plasmids in preparation of mutagenesis.

| - | The check digest showed that some had the appropriate digested sizes we would expect from a plasmid of 3kb and a gene of 2kb.<br/></br>

| + | |
| - | <p>The O.N. cultures of SST, FFT and our 3 parts (B0015/terminator, E0040/GFP and R0010/LacL) showed promising results of growth. A miniprep was made from the 32 samples and a Nanodrop as well which gave the following results:

| - | 16 samples from the miniprep was picked out: 12, 13, 18, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 32 plus 4 with GFP insert and a PCR with a proofreading polymerase (Phusion Hot Star II) was run.</br>
| + | |
| - | We got no useable results from this. There were a variation of lengths, and none of the ones we would expect.<br/>
| + | |
| - | Then we did PCR on the two genes FFT and SST with the extension primers at 71°C annealing temperature. We ran a gel on the PCR product, but only had results for FFT. Therefore we purified the FFT genes. Another PCR was made for SST and it was thereafter ligated into R0010 and transformed for overnight incubation. </br>

| - | SST reverse primer: FFT1-ext-rev, number 8, Tm: 66</br>

| - | We transformed the RFP/terminator part into TOP10 with a new transformation protocol, where the effectivity was tested after 30 or 90 seconds heat shock.</br>

| - | We made a PCR on everything and all of our parts and genes with VF2 and VR primers. Got very bad results.

| | + | In the following days 1-SST ligated into pJET, grown on ampicillin plates, transformed into Top10, transfered to liquid medium and miniprepped for sequencing. |
