Lab Work

1 - Extraction of plasmid DNA

by Sean

Plasmid used: p cola.

p cola is a low-copy plasmid, and thus requires a slightly different protocol than other plasmids.

2 - Samples for stock

by Fabio

We collected 1ml of each sample, added 240µl of glycerol (87%) and stored at -80°C.

from Liquide Bacterial Cultures transformed the 21st July

3 - Electrophoresis

by Arnaud (Process B), Fabio (gel), Marie and Romain (Process B)

We used 2µL of DNA of the following Biobricks in a 1% Agarose Gel.

Protocol

4 - Bacterial Culture

by Fabio and Marie

One liquid culture with 5ml of LB (37°C - 150 rpm), IL1403 from the concentrated colony.

5 - Plasmid DNA extraction

by Sean and Terry

Plasmids used: cf part 1

Note: we accidentally used a buffer without 10% ethanol. After removal of the buffer, we repeated the step with a correct version. This may have affected the electrophoresis which followed.

C - Lemon scent

PCR Targeting

by Romain

Strains used: DY330. Plasmid used: pJBEI-6409 (code for enzymes to produce limonene from glucose in E. coli)

Step 1 - Dilution of 300µl of bacterial culture in 30ml of LB + 30µl Cm at 30°C.

Step 2 - With the pre-culture:

• make glycerol stock: 1ml bacterial culture with 240µl glycerol 87%.
• Make extraction of 5ml of plasmid Protocol

Step 3 - When the culture OD₆₅₀ = 0,6 (Step 1):

• put in ice during 10min.
• centriguge 4°C, 5min, 4000rpm
• Discard the supernatant, and resuspend the pellet in 30ml glycerol 10% COLD

Members there:

• Instructors and advisors: Solenne.
• Students: Arnaud, Fabio, Juliette, Mathieu, Marie, Pierre, Romain, Sean and Terry.
