V08_27_1 Miniprep of the tar-promoter constructs

Experiment:
The Minipreps were conducted using the PeqGOLD MiniPrep Kit (Peqlab) according to the user manual.

V08_27_2 Chemical retransformation of the tar-promoter constructs into E. coli BL21

Experiment:
The retransformation was performed as described in the standard protocol.
Observations & Results:
The retransformation was successful since numerous colonies could be obtained except for the empty negative control.

V08_27_3 Chemical transformation of different motility increasing constructs into E. coli MG1655

Experiment:
For we aimed to investigate the effect of our constructs on cells that are used to swim competent MG1655 cells were transformed with the following constructs:
fliC (DH10B)
fliC (Salmonella)
motA
motB
yhjH

18M-flhDC
18O-flhDC
18C-flhDC
Observations & Results:
The transformation was not successful. The next morning only one plate (the positive control) featured any visible colonies. However, after several additional hours of incubation also some very small colonies appeared at some other plates. Nevertheless, the efficiency was very low. We suggest that this is normal since MG1655 is no cloning strain and might have thus a much lower transformation efficiency. This idea was supported by our inquiries.

V08_27_1 Preparation of over night cultures

Experiment:
In oder to perform a Real-Time Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR over night cultures of the tar-promoter constructs in BL21 were prepared.

Restriction of flhDC-promoter constructs and Psb1c3

Ligation and transformation of flhDC-promoter constructs and Psb1c3
