Today is a long day.

Second batch (B2): We inoculated some toxT gRNA. Today we are minipreping it. (It already passed the test digest.

Third batch (B3): Yesterday, we inoculated 2 reporter-Chlora colonies from each plates. Today we digest them, gel purify, ligate, and transform them onto Carb back bone, along with re-ligating and re-transforming ctxA that kept failing. Gel test for some were not good so we inoculated a few more (from tcpR).

Forth batch (B4): We transformed B4 reporters on promoter-Chlora. The plates are good today. There's one colonies on the negative and the colonies on other plates appear with different sizes, so we are picking 2 colonies from each plates to inoculate.

We remade some gRNA from the primers. Unfortunately, yesterday we didn't have the machine for overnight ligation. So we will ligate it tonight.


Tomorrow: For B3, we need to re-do whatever we did today because of new inoculation of the old plates. Meaningly, miniprep, digest, gel purify, ligate, and transform newly inoculated tcpR. we should have colonies of B3 reporters on the plates we are transforming today. We should miniprep the B4 reporters we inoculated today. For gRNA of B4, ligation will be done and we will transform them tomorrow. Saturday, we will inoculate. Sunday, we will miniprep. Next week, on Monday, we should have everything ready for test digest and then finally send the last batch of sequencing!

Today's tasks:

  • B3 reporter vectors on Chlora: Glycerol Stock + Miniprep + Digest + Gel extract and purify + ligate + transform
  • Inoculate more colonies from tcpR plates.
  • Inoculate 2 colonies from each plate transformed yesterday (second batch, reporter vectors on Carb).
  • Prepared for sequencing: diluted to the correct volume and concentration.
  • Purified RBS (digested overnight yesterday).
  • Transformed of overnight ligation yesterday (third batch, reporter vectors with promoters under Chlora).


 
Terrible, terrible gel! We punctured the gel! The lane bled over each other. We had to make another gel to purify.

Updating the wiki notebook from the slowest computer in the building because currently we can't log into any other computer. Rishika is gel-ing the ctx-s.
