  1. Added 2 ul of plasmid DNA to 50 ul of thawed competent cells on ice.
  2. Incubated on ice for 30 min.
  3. Added 200 ul of LB then incubated the cells for 2 hrs at 37C.
  4. Prepared and Labeled two petri dishes with LBK.
  5. Plate 200 ul of the transformation onto first dish and spread.
  6. Added 450 ul of LB to 50 ul of the transformation and plated 200 ul of it onto second dish and spread.
  7. Incubated the plates at 37C for over 30 hrs.
There were no colony on the plates.

Electrophoresis

Electrophoresis of digestion and ligation products.

  1. Placed TBE agarose gel in Electrophoresis chamber.
  2. Added 1/2X TBE buffer to Electrophoresis chamber.
  3. Added 5 ul of Etbr and ran at 100 V for 30 min.
  4. Apply 1kb DNA ladder and each samples.
  5. Ran at 100 V for 30 min.
Digestion and Ligation results

There are no band in the lane of ligation products. But if digestion products didn't ligate, there are two bands of digestion products would exist in the lane.
