<b> Experimenter </b>: Zeki Ekmekci, Wenchen Zhao, Dan Korvin
 +
</p> <p>
 +
<b> Aim </b>: Amplify T7 DNA polymerase (DNAP), primase/helicase (P/H), single strand binding protein (SSBP) genes from T7 bacteriophage genome by PCR. Digest terminator with EcoRI (E) and XbaI (X). Digest RNAP with E and SpeI (S).
 +
</p> <p>
 +
<b> Results </b>: NA.

 +
<b> Experimenter </b>: Ariel Ragetli, Zeki Ekmekci
 +
</p> <p>
 +
<b> Aim </b>: Verify DNAP, P/H, SSBP genes on agarose gel. Digest DNAP, P/H, SSBP amplicons with E and S. Ligate each digested T7 gene to digested terminator vector.
 +
</p> <p>
 +
<b> Results </b>: DNAP, P/H, SSBP genes successfully amplified, but non-trivial amount of side products (mostly primer-dimer) appeared in DNAP and P/H lanes. Four T7 genes all digested and ligated with terminator.
 +

</p><p>
 +
<b> Results </b>: Multiple bands observed (non-trivial amount of side products). Target SSBP+terminator fragment with distinctive amount observed (only one lane with decent result).
 +
</p>
 +

 +
<b> Aim </b>: Amplify the target gene/terminator ligated sequence using four different forward primers and same VF reversed primer. Verify the PCR products on a gel.
 +
</p><p>
 +
<b> Results </b>: No significant bands we were looking for observed on the gel.
