• (Ag43 + dT)

Assembling K346007(Ag43) + B0015(dT) with 2-piece assembly(Biobrisk standard assembly)

Digestion

Digested Ag43 and dT in solution by recipes Written below. Insert DNA required too much weight and volume(volume was calculated from concentration of DNA mini-prep product)from our calculation. There are no insurance of succession of digestion.

• Ag43(Insert)

5190bp(Ag43 + pSB1C3) DW

DNA solution	48ul
EcoRI	1ul
SpeI	1ul
10xH buffer	6ul
4ul
Total	60ul

• dT(Vector)

3318bp(Ag43 + pSB1AK3)

Digestion result image

K346007(Ag43) was 5190bp before digestion (Biobrick prefix + Ag43 + Biobrick suffix + pSB1C3). After digestion, Ag43 and pSB1C3 was separated and became fragments about 3120bp(Ag43) and 2070bp(pSB1C3). Gel image above shows there are two fragments, one fragment is about 2000bp other fragment is 3000bp. Digestion would be succeeded. About Vector(Boo15:dT), the DNA was circular so DNA migrated more far than Linear DNA. d+ (Circular DNA) migrated little more far than d- (Linear DNA). so we think digestion was succeeded.
