- | <p> In the lab: The PCR reactions from yeasterday didn't work, so they were repeated. This time 50 µL PCR reaction were prepared. Gel purification was performed on the PCR products and the final concentration was measured by nanodrop.</p>
| |
- | <p>We digested the products by using restriction enzymes XbaI og SpeI. We detected that the plasmid was only linearized, meaning that only one restriction enzyme/ restriction site was functional.</p>
| |
- |
| |
- | <p>We worked on the basics in the iGEM concept. We discussed the definitions of biobrick, basis part, composite part and deviced. We learned the "Standard Assembly Method", it's condition, uses and limitations.</p>
| |

| |
- | <p>We defined the conditions for our own device and started searching for the necessary parts in the iGEM registry.</p>

- | <p>The development of the construct used to produce lacI was commenced. This was done by first running Phusion PCR on lacI (BBa_I732100, Template 8A, Plate 3). The PCR product was then analysed on gel-electrophoresis and purified.</p>

- | <p>At first sight the results from the colony PCR seems to suggest that something went wrong during the digestion or ligation, since only re-ligations seems to be present.</p>

- | <p>As we were not successful in transforming the samples from Saturday 19/7 a new batch was initiated.
| |
- | So PCR1, 2, and 3 and furthermore B and BC were digested, ligated, and transformed.</p>
| |
- | <p>In accordance with our decision to make the nutrient producing strain taste good transformations of parts; I742111 (RBS+limonene synthase), K118024 (dsx+LIMS1+appY), J23119 (constitutive promoter), and B0015 (double terminator) was commenced. These are going to constitute the construct for producing lemon taste and scent.</p>

- | <p> To check that we have the correct lenghts of our PCR1,2,3 and part A,B,C & BC, we ran a PCR. This did not work, so we repeated the PCR this time with a Tm on 51 degrees. The products with a length on 1000 bp and lower got 15 sec. at step 4, and the products with lengths over 1000 bp got 30 sec.

- | Gradient PCR was ran on part A with lac_LVAR & lac_LVA_F as primers. 2,5 uL template & 31 uL water. Tm graient at 51-70 deg. with 5 samples. PCR program: 1: 98 deg., 2 min. 2: 98 deg., 10 sec. 3: 51-70 deg., 30 sec. 4: 72 deg., 45 sec. 5: GO TO 2 rep 30. 6: 72 deg., 5 min.
| |
- | After running the PCR on a gel, no clear, correct bands showed. This was due to the primers, which had a too high concentration, thus they were diluted.
| |
- | <p> After the dilution, a touch down PCR was made, starting at 66 deg. going 1 deg. lower per cycle for 10 cycles, thus ending at 56 deg. A gel showed a clear band with the correct bands. In order for us to have a high enough concentration of PCR1 & PCR2 for ligation, we ran a PCR with the program: 1:98 deg., 2 min. 2: 98 deg., 10 sec. 3: 50 deg., 30 sec. 4: 72 deg., 2 sec. 5: GO TO 2 rep 30. 6: 72 deg., 5 min.
| |
- | <p> after running a gel with the PCR products, bands showed with the wrong lenghts that wasn't religation. Thus we concluded that the PCR1 and PCR2 used was incorrect.
| |
- | <p> Due to this, we ran a PCR on all of our PCR1,2,3 products with verification primers, to check wether they had the correct lengths, which they luckily had.
