Results / Cloning the Shipping Vectors
We wanted to contribute useful Biobricks to the iGEM Parts Registry and thus cloned our important constructs into the iGEM pSB1C3 standard vector. In accordance with classical cloning, we amplified our sequences of interest, cleaved them with restriction endonucleases generating the same single-stranded overhangs as for the final vector backbone and ligated both parts finally. After the ligation products were transferred into E.coli and analyzed via colony PCR, the resulted plasmids were isolated and sent to the iGEM Headquater.
Polyacrylamide is a strong toxic agent for neurons. Be careful please!.
Labwork
- Amplify the sequence of interest by a standard PCR
- For the removal of remaining polymerase, the PCR products were separated via agarose gel electrophorese and purified via silica membranes. For yield optimization, the smallest possible elution volume was used.
- All fragments, the purified PCR products and the isolated final vectors were cleaved.
- By 20 µl digest mixes including the PstI and EcoRI enzymes.
- While ~ 500 ng of plasmid DNA was sufficient, the highest possible volume of eluted insert DNA was used.
- Due to instable single-stranded overhangs of the digest products, analysis via agarose gel electrophoresis and purification via silica membranes were performed subsequently. For stable insertion a modified version of the noted ligation mix (10 µl) was kept at RT for 1 h:
Ligation Mix for Shipping Vectors 4μl insert 3μl vector 1μl ligase buffer 0.2μl ligase 1.8μl H2O
E. coli were grown on Chloramphenicol containing 2TY medium and checked by colony PCR.
