  4. Centrifuged in 15000 rpm, 10 min at 4C.

transformation

Transformation of plasmid DNA (pT7-RBS-Ag43-dT on pSB1K3)
in E. coli(DH5α).

  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 600 ul of LB then incubated the cells for 2 hours at 37C.

  5. Plated 300 ul of the culture onto first dish and spread.
  6. Added 900 ul of LB to 100 ul of the culture and plated 300 ul of it onto second dish and spread.
  7. Incubated them at 37C for 16 hours.

Ethanol precipitation

Ethanol precipitation for mini-prep product (pBad-RBS). Because the refine of mini-prep product is not enough.
We use 15 ul DNA solution.

  1. Added 1.5 ul of NaoAc(3 M), 1.5 ul of glycogen and 38 ul of 100% ethanol.
  2. Centrifuged in 15000 rpm, 10 min at 4C.
  3. Remove supernatant and added 220 ul of 70% ethanol.
  4. Centrifuged in 15000 rpm, 5 min at 4C.
  5. Remove supernatant and air drying in room temperature then added 10 ul of DW.

digestion result

In this result, speI digested DNA completely.
So I think that the pT7-RBS on pSB1K3 DNA solution is not pure.

2 95 30
3 53 30

Cycle:2~4 x 35

We used N1 (DW only) and N2 (Ag43 on pSB1C3 (K346007)) as controls. Desired product is about 500~600bp.

Colony PCR result

We thought that colonies of No. 1 and 2 and 5 and 11 and 14 have deep band. Next step, we resuspended these 5 colonies and cultured (add 1700 ul LB and 2 ul Amp) for 15 hours in 37C.


August 8th

mini-prep

mini-prep of colony No. 1 and 14. We used FastGene Plasmid Mini Kit(Nippon Genetics) and got 50 ul of DNA solutions.

And then, we did mini-prep for colony No. 2,5,11. The results of them are the same.

Sequencing

To purify the PCR product, we did ethanol precipitation.


Ethanol precipitation in our sequencing protocol

  1. Added 10 ul of H2O, 2 ul of NaoAc, 1 ul of glycogen and 50 ul of 100% ethanol.
  2. Centrifuged in 15000 rpm, 15 min at 26C.
  3. Remove supernatant and added 100ul of 70% ethanol.
  4. Centrifuged in 15000 rpm, 5 min at 26C.
  5. Remove supernatant and air drying in room temperature then added 10 ul of Hi-Di.


Then run a sequencing machine (ByoDye Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit)

Ligation

We ligated pT7-RBS on pSB1K3 (digested Spe1) as vector and Ag43-dT (digested Spe1 and Xba1 and HindIII) as insert.
We did ligation (pT7-RBS on pSB1K3 and Ag43-dT) and transformation it, at August 6th. However, we could not get the target DNA (pT7-RBS-Ag43-dT on pSB1K3 ). So, we did ligation by using more Insert DNA part.

Transformation of August 6th, we find only 14 colonies. So this time, we use 3 ul of DNA solution for transformation.

  1. Added 3 ul of plasmid DNA to 50 ul of thawed competent cells on ice.
  2. Incubated on ice for 30 min.
  3. Added 400 ul of LB then incubated the cells for 2 hours at 37C.
  4. Prepared and Labeled two LBK plates.
  5. Plated 300 ul of the culture onto first dish and spread.
