1st

Organization

where to get:

  • key cards and keys for the lab
  • cooled centifuge
  • space in -80 °C
  • bottles for 70 % ethanol
  • ... (problems of a first year team ^^)

12th

  • Chemically competent NEB Top10, DH5α and BL21 were made

15th

  • 800 ml LB for plates with 1.5% agar and kanamycin (50 µg/L) were prepared
  • The efficiency of our competent cells was tested
    • Colonies on the agar plates were counted after transformation with 1 µl DNA (147 ng/µl)
    • Cells had been incubated in SOC or LB medium
Dilution 200 µl (stock) 100 µl (stock) 1:5 1:10 1:100
DH5α SOC: 30 LB: 10 SOC: 7 LB: 1 SOC: 1 LB: 2 SOC: 2 LB: 1
NEB Top 10 SOC: 170 LB: 135 SOC: 100 LB: 79 SOC: 25 LB: 22 SOC: 9 LB: 9 SOC: 1 LB:0
  • BL21 cells were centrifuged and plated; only 128 colonies grew in total indicating a very bad efficiency (~482.11).

Following formula was used to calculate the efficiency:

Efficiency = (CFU /µg DNA) / Dilution
  • for DH5α: medial efficiency in SOC: 1864.36, and in LB: 440.68
  • for NEB: medial efficiency in SOC: 6779.66, and in LB: 4698.30
    Higher efficiency when using SOC!

23th

  • 5 µl of the PCR products were run on a 1,5% agarose gel
  • DNA bands were purified from gel with the High Pure Product Purification Kit. Full length products were contaminated with REACh1


  • SOE

28th

  • The DNA concentration of the SOE2 products were measured after purification
  • 1: 57 ng/µL
  • 2: 69.5 ng/µL

29th

  • PCR SOE1 and SOE2

30th

  • A PAGE of the SOE2 products was run on agarose gel for checking
    → no positive results; only full length products were amplified


  • SOE PCRs were run again
    → more template
    → hot start
    → faster
    → elongation: 15 min
    → 20 cycles
  • SOE1

Template A+B → 20 µL → 13.8 + 6.2 5.3 + 14.7
