April 30 - May 6


Monday


  • Electrophoresis for constructs C1.1 and C1.2 assembled through Gibson. Wrong size.
  • PCR run of parts C1.1 and C1.2 for new Gibson.


Tuesday


  • KanR + double terminator has strange results. An analytic digestion will be done to check insertion.
  • As Gibson assembly is not working, we still need to try if pPMQAK1 works in synechocystis. We'll take out the toxic by standard assembly and transform Synechocystis afterwards.
  • Negative control of competent cells with pPMQAK1 was positive. Possible contamination.
  • There are colonies in Gibson negative controls.


Wednesday


  • Gibson assembly for C1.1, C 1/2 and positive control.


Friday


  • Colony PCR for C1 and C1/2.
  • New competent cells prepared.
