From the picture, we can see that, the position of the band of digested plasmid is apparently lying behind that of the original plasmid which hasn’t been digested by EcoRI, indicating that most of the plasmid in our digestion system has become linearized.

3. Heat-inactivation for the digestion system & Cold shock to prevent self-ligation

1. Heat-inactivation 75°C10min

2. Chill on ice, 15min

4. Do fill-in with T4 DNA polymerase

1. Discard 0.5ul DNA from the former inactivated digestion system, forming the final 19ul system.

Till now, the concentration of DNA for:

Poly A: 21.1ng/ul

[According to the manual provided by NEB

The NEBuffer 2.1 for EcoRI is also suitable for T4 DNA polymerase and,

1ug DNA ~ 1 unit enzyme; final concentration for dNTP: 100uM]

3. Protocol:

a. incubate the fill-in system at 12°C15min

b. add 2ul EDTA(100mM) to 18ul reaction system to stop the polyreaction.

c. put in 65°C20min to inactivate T4 DNA polymerase thoroughly.

4. Accident

To begin with, due to our carelessness, we added Taq DNA polymerase instead of T4 DNA polymerase to the 19ul system. But, thinking that it might not cause any serious consequence, we then just added T4 DNA polymerase into the system with the same volume.

5. Electrophoresis & Agrose gel DNA extraction to remove enzymes and competent of Buffer

DNA extraction:

Performed as the protocol provided by TIANgel Purification Kit, except that we eluted the DNA sample twice at the last step (as we always done before).

Concentration of the purified DNA fragments:

Poly A: 19.3ng/ul

G-PB5: 18.8ng/ul

c. Heat inactivation, 65°C, 10min

d. chill on ice

7. Electrophoresis & Agrose gel DNA extraction to remove enzymes and competent of Buffer

DNA extraction:

Performed as the protocol… but, we forgot to change the collecting tubes into EP tubes before adding EB solution…So, the most of the DNA was eluted into collecting tubes which might also contain many impurities(like ethanol, proteins…).

 

Anyway, we still transferred DNA in the collecting tubes into new EP tubes, and then detect the concentration of them.

One abnormal phenomenon is that, in our ligation system, the total amount of DNA is 200ng or so at most. But from our extraction results, we can see that the quantity of DNA in each tube reaches 400ng around. So, where did these extra DNA come from? Or, is it just caused by the inaccurate measurement of Nanodrop?

2. We also transformed bacteria with those DNA that haven’t been digested by EcoRI as well. To make sure, if there were no colonies growing out, the reason shouldn’t lie in the ligation step.

3. Recover step: 200rpm, 45min, 18:44pm~19:30pm

5. Incubate, 37°C, overnight [2014.8.10 8:44pm~2014.8.11 10:00am]

Results

Digested groups:

Except G1,2 group with digested plasmid have colonies grown out, all the other digested groups have no colonies grown on. However, the colonies that grown on the G1,2 digested plates looked extremely abnormal. There are too many colonies growing on the plate that we nearly cannot distinguish any monocolones. Such strange result implied the failure of our second-time Fill-in.

Undigested groups:

Some groups have colonies grown out on their undigested plates which can roughly indicate that our ligation was operative.

 

Improvement:

1) Increase the quantity of DNA in each system

2) Heat inactivation before adding T4 DNA polymerase to avoid interplays.

3) Perform restriction digestion directly after ligation step without DNA extraction.

4) If we failed again for the third time, we plan to apply new method to eliminate the EcoRI site on UAS sequence. Such as, site-specific mutagenesis, or isocaudarner ligation.*
