These plasmids contained a number of azo-reductase genes from both <i>B. subtilis</i> and <i>P. aeruginosa</i> including mutated forms found to exhibit enhanced reductase activity. As the DNA concentration of the plasmids we were sent was insufficient to perform PCR amplification on we transformed each of these plasmids into our <i>E. coli</i> NEB5lpha competent cells. After growing the cells overnight we then mini-prepped each of them to obtain plasmids at sufficient concentrations for future experimental work.</p> |
