PCR amplification of Moth_1191, 1199 gene : decreasing annealing temperature down to 45℃
To make sure there’s no problem with unspecific binding or annealing temperature, we decreased annealing condition down to 45℃.
Results
There was no band and it became certain that there are no problems with annealing procedure.
Induction of Moth_0109 gene (sampling) and running SDS-PAGE gel.
We induced Moth_0109 gene in pBAD/myc vector with different Arabinose conditions and temperature: 10mM, 30mM and 37℃, 30℃. And then, we run the sample into SDS-PAGE gel. The gel is stained with coomassie blue for 1 hour and de-stained for overnight.
PCR amplification of Moth_1191, 1199 gene with Gibson and TOPO primer
To see whether there are any problem with Gibson primers that we’ve designed, we did one more pcr amplification. Primers for Gibson assembly and TOPO cloning are mixed, and we could see any problems with forward or reverse primers.
Results
Each lane indicates:
- Moth_1191_1 : TOPO forward primer and Gibson reverse primer
- Moth_1191_2 : Gibson forward primer and TOPO reverse primer
- Moth_1199_1 : Gibson forward primer and TOPO reverse primer
- Moth_1199_2 : TOPO forward primer and Gibson reverse primer

Discussion
These primers are universial primer that can be used for insertion of this gene into both pTrcHis2A vector and pBAD/mycHisC vector.
Expression check of Moth_0109 gene on pBAD/mycHisC vector (Result)
For each samples of different induction conditions, we run SDS-PAGE gel and checked the presence of 59.94 kDa protein, formate tetrahydrofolate ligase.

PCR for Moth 1202 gene has failed. No band for Moth 1202 gene has appeared on the gel.
Gibson assembly – assembly of pcr fragments.
Results
Among three methods to assemble DNA fragments, we chose first method, which is assembly of PCR amplified DNA fragments.
0.2umoles of each fragments are added into the reaction sample, and volume to be added for each fragments has calculated on the assumption that average MW of each base is 660Da. Table below is the result of calculation.
Fragment 1
Fragment 2
Discussion
As we can only assemble the fragments through Gibson Assembly method and not amplify them, there would be very small amount of template remaining in the tube. We thought that’s why we couldn’t see any band on the gel. So we did PCR purification of the fragment once more and saw if the band appears on the gel.
