Week 25: 15 october - 21 october

15 October

  • 3rd time growing JM109 containing our biobricks BBa_K883702 (GFP coil with an IPTG induced promoter) and BBa_K883703 (GFP coil + His tag with an IPTG induced promoter) and induce expression with IPTG with new medium

-> no GFP production could be seen


16 October

  • to check if there are any colonies showing green fluorescence on the original plate (of the transformation on 21.September GFPcoil; GFPcoil + his tag in Bba_J04500 (IPTG induced promoter) in JM109), colonies where picked randomly and plated on agarplates containing IPTG next to the selection antibiotic

-> some colonies containing GFPcoil with an IPTG induced promoter show green fluorescence

Figure 1: 3 colonies containing GFPcoil with an IPTG induced promoter show a slight green colour in normal daylight'

  • plate the JM109 samples that where used for sending the bricks in to the registry - containing BBa_K883702(GFPcoil with IPTG induced promoter) and BBa_K883703 (GFPcoil + His tag with IPTG induced promoter) on agarplates containing IPTG next to the selection antibiotic

-> culture containing BBa_K883702(GFPcoil with IPTG induced promoter) shows green fluorescence

Figure 2: BBa_K883702(GFPcoil with IPTG induced promoter)in JM109 [left] shows some green fluorescence whereas for BBa_K883703 (GFPcoil + His tag with IPTG induced promoter) in JM109 [right] no fluorescence can be seen '


  • grow colonies containing the biobricks BBa_K883702 BBa_K883703 BBa_K883701 and BBa_K883700
  • grow colonies containing BBa_K883702 and BBa_K883703 in duplo once with IPTG in the medium and once adding IPTG (fresh stock solution) to the culture at OD=0.6
  • miniprep of the colonies containing BBa_K883702 BBa_K883703 BBa_K883701 and BBa_K883700
  • 2nd try to send the bricks BBa_K883702 BBa_K883703 BBa_K883701 and BBa_K883700 in for sequencing

-> sequencing revealed that BBa_K883702 and BBa_K883703 had the expected sequence but BBa_K883701 and BBa_K883700 where faulty - therefore we deleted these two bricks from the registry


18 October

  • transformation of BBa_K883702 with BL21 (producing strain) - plating the transformants on plates containing IPTG


19 October

  • colony PCR of the transformation BBa_K883702 with BL21 using sequencing primers and plating the picked colonies again on a plate containing IPTG

-> all the colonies picked had the correct insert and showed fluorescence under the UV light

Figure 3: the transformation was successful since all the colonies on the plate show slight green fluorescence.'

Figure 4: the colony PCR shows that all picked colonies had the correct insert size. Bba_I13522 was used as a positive control and reference.'


  • checking fluorescence of the transformants on the IPTG containing plate under the UV light


Hepatitis B inside modification


15 October

  • PCR check of the PCR fragment obtained on 27.August

Figure 5: The purified PCR fragment contains fragments of the correct size as well as a bigger fragment. The nonpurified sample shows only a smere.'

  • ligation of the PCR product in pJET
  • transformation with DH5α

-> there was growth on the negative control plate
