Lab work

Bricking of CCMV and d26-CCMV second try

Monday:

• Prepare sample for PCR
• Run PCR (98°C for 10 seconds, 55 °C for 30 seconds, 72 °C for 30 seconds, 35 cycles, Pfusion enzyme)

! due to unknown reasons the standard program was altered, which resulted into a temperature gradient of the annealing temperature from 52- 58 °C. All the products were in the 58 °C region of the temperature gradient

• Prepare PCR-samples for agarose gel
• Run agarose gel (1% w/v agarose)
• Check gel

All products amplified well, except for the CCMV unmodified product. Investigation gives the suspicion that the annealing temperature was to high. Gradient PCR will be performed to find out the right annealing temperature for CCMV.

Tuesday:

[WORK IN PROGRESS/ Jeroen)

Testing CCMV protocol

Monday:

• Prepare samples for ultracentrifuge according to protocol
• Run ultracentrifuge
