| |
- | Objective: Prepare buffers and mediums for new CCEC protocol
| |
- | Matthew Farnitano, TJ Ciesla, Mike Zhu, Charlie Cooper
| |
- | Prepare SOB Medium for bacterial transformation
| |
- | Protocol from iGEM’s parts website http://parts.igem.org/Help:Protocols/Competent_Cells
| |
- | Made 1 L, autoclaved and stored in two 500 mL containers in cold room
| |
- | medium still appeared cloudy before autoclave--may just be new recipe
| |
- | Prepare CCMB 80 Buffer for making chemically competent E. coli cells
| |
- | Protocol from iGEM’s parts website http://parts.igem.org/Help:Protocols/Competent_Cells
| |
- | Made 1 L, filtered and stored in two 500 mL containers in cold room
| |
- | pH 6.34 (overshot a few times pH adjustment, but no noticeable precipitate formed
| |
- | Autoclave two 500 mL culture flasks
| |
- | For CCEC protocol
| |
- | With water inside to remove detergent residues
| |
- | Next steps:
| |
- | Prepare CCEC
| |
- |
| |
- | Objective: Attempt to grow some transformed cell cultures with Charlie’s CCEC
| |
- | Matthew Faw
| |
- | The second (and more properly conducted) attempt to transform the CCEC with RFP construct BBa_J04450 from 6/2 failed. Today, we are trying to see if we can get any transformed cells to grow in plates.
| |
- | Followed Charlie’s Cloning protocols,with slight modifications
| |
- | Added 5 lof 0 (control) and 50pg/lRFP Construct BBa_J04450 to Charlie’s chemically competent E. Coli, and followed procedure
| |
- | Plated the transformed DNA on 2 separate plates, put in put in 37C overnight
| |
- | Results: No colonies grew (6/5/14)
| |
- | Next Steps:
| |
- | -Examine plates to see if any cultures grew
| |
- | -Attempt the transformation with the cell cultures growns using iGEM’s standard protocols that can be found here: http://parts.igem.org/Help:Protocols/Competent_Cells
| |
- | -Lab currently in the process of making these CCEC
| |
- |
| |
- | Objective: Prepare pdCas9 marrafini and pCsy4 Arkin plasmids to be miniprepped
| |
- | Matthew Faw, Charlie Cooper
| |
- | Prepare pdCas9 and pCsy4 to be miniprepped tomorrow
| |
- | Put pdCas9 into a culture tube with 5ml SOC+Chloramphenicol
| |
- | Put pCsy4 in a culture tube with 5ml SOC+Amp
| |
- | Left both to shake at 37C to grow the plasmid DNA--Charlie will retrieve them
| |
- |
| |
- | Next steps:
| |
- | Miniprep plasmid DNA
