week 13: 23 july - 29 july
Not much work was done this week because the team spent four days on going to a three day synthetic biology conference in Munich. We learned a lot there and had a great time!
Office work
Lab work
PLRV
- RNA isolation of potato leaf tissue
- Reverse transcriptase reaction to obtain cDNA
- PCR on cDNA using coat protein primers
The figure below shows the purity of isolated RNA. We isolated RNA of different potato cultivars.
Figure 1:...
Figure 2: ...
We performed Reverse Transciptase reactions followed by PCR. We used the Revert AID H Minus Reverse Transcription Kit (Fermentas).
Figure 3: ...
Agarose gel of PCR products. Lanes 1 till 4 show the PLRV Coat Protein (CP) bands with the expected size of 627 bp. Lanes 6 till 9 show the PLRV Coat Protein plus Read Through part (CP_RT) with the expected size of 2154 bp.
