June 26th
show technical details
The ligation procedure was performed as June 23rd with a few exceptions: (1) increased the volume of ligation mixture, and hence the amount of ligase. This was because it was assumed that the residual activity of PstI-HF could be counteracted by increasing Taq ligase concentration; and (2) created a short time series for ligation, one sample at 42 °C for 20 minutes and another one for one hour. Both ligation times resulted in growth on LB plates with chloramphenicol.

Colonies of Kan1 or LF2+Kan2 were inoculated in 4 ml SOC containing 1µg/ml chloramphenicol and kanamycin, while the remaining samples were inoculated in 4 ml SOC containing 1µg/ml chloramphenicol. PCR-products were verified with gel electrophoresis.
