2、Mixing of primers

Oligonucleotides synthesized in powder form need to be centrifuged for 1 min at 10000rpm to assemble powders to the bottom of the EP tube.And be careful to open the cap.

Make sure that the synthesis report is consistent to the OD number on the primer label,and check the number of the dispensing tube before the dissolution of oligonucleotides.The volume of water added to make 10umol/L oligonucleotides’ solution is calculated according to the synthetic single report of each primer. Add sterile deionized water and keep it at room temperature for 2min.And reverse the tube to accelerate the progress of solubilization. Finally, collect substances at the bottom of the tube after centrifugation.

Every six primers are combined to one group.Add 4ulbeginning fiprimer, 1ulintermediate primer and 4ul end primerto a new EP tube, then add sterile deionized water to 20ul, mix them up as spare.

Illustration of the outcome:

  1. L1, L2, L3 could get mlrA genome which were made by five single-stranded oligonucleotides splicedtogether.
  2. Wide strip of the tape at 100bp was caused by excessive amount of amplification primers A1 and A4.

5、Constructing and sequencing of subcoloning vector

After double enzyme digestion reaction at 37℃ for 3h by EcoRⅠand PstⅠ, MlrA gene and pSB1C3 vector linked together at 16℃ overnight. And then transformed to E.coli JM109 competent cell, and select the desirable colony by using “blue-white selection” method.

Preparation process of competent cell E.coliBL21
(1) Culturing strain E.coliBL21(37℃)overnight to recovery culture, Adding overnight bacteria culture fluid 600uLto 30 mL LB culture medium, and 37℃,200 r/min shake culturing 1-2 h, until OD600 is around 0.3-0.4.
(2) In the aseptic condition, transfer 30mLbacteria fluid to the centrifugal tube in the ice 10 min to cooling the culture to 0℃.
(3) Centrifuging 10 min in precooling centrifugal machine over 4000r/min, throw supernate, and then add30mLprecooling 0.1mol/L CaCl2 solution to resuspension precipitation in the ice 10 min.
(4) Centrifuging 4000r/min in 4℃10min, throw supernate,  each 30mL initial culture resuspension cell precipitation with 1.0mL precooling 0.1mol/LCaCl2 solution, and then 200μL each one.
Heal shock transformation process
(1) Thawing freshly prepared or -80℃ competentcellBL21suspension.
(2) Add constructed recombinant cloning vector plasmidspSB1C3-A(no more than 50ng, 10μl), shake gently, and then in the ice 30min.
(3) Put EP tube in 42℃ water bath90s,and then transfer it to ice water bath to cool cells1-2 min.
(4) add 800μL LB medium to EP tube,transfer it to 37℃ table,150r/min,to recovery strain 45 min.
Spread plate and Culture
(1)After culture in 37℃, centrifuge the cell solution(5000rpm,5min) and concentrate it to 200μl. Then coat it to LB culture with chloramphenicol and set a positive control.
(2) Wait until the solution in culture is full absorbed by cell, then invert the plate and culture it in 37℃ overnight.
Sequence test
Replace the fragment(45bp) between EcoR I site and Pst I site with mlrA(1024bp) on pSB1C3 vector and then we get the reconstructed plasmid, pSB1C3-A.

 

Fig3.Reconstructed vector pSB1C3-A

Select the white colony on culture and culture it. Then we extract the plasmid and use it as template in PCR to identify the colony. In theory, the reconstructed vector with mlrA fragment is 1293bp and the empty vector without mlrA fragment is 314bp. So, the result shows that the white colony we select has reconstructed vector with mlrA fragment in it.

                   Fig 4. The identification of reconstructed vector pSB1C3-A

Results:

1.L1 and L2 is 1300bp and it confirms that the reconstructed vector has mlrA on it.

2.M is the 100bp Ladde Marker.

Sequencing result shows that the sequence of synthetic mlrA gene is exactly same as sequence of designed sequence.
