Revision as of 02:00, 17 October 2014


Monday 9th June

Made LB broth using 10 grams of bacto agar + 12 grams HiVeg LB broth + 600 mL ddH2O

Autoclaved 1.5 mL Eppendorf tubes as well as LB

Poured plates of LB and chloramphenicol (CAM)

Streaked 2 plates with E. coli DguaB (pDCAF3)

Incubated in 37 degrees celsius

Aliquoted kanamycin (KAN) in four 1mL tubes

Tuesday 10th June

Autoclaved at 1:30pm

  • 0.8 grams of YNB + 156 mL H2O
  • 28 grams of salts + 490 mL H2O

Used sterile filter for 1M MgSO4 and 1M CaCl2

Suspended 5 uL of CM34 (antibiotic) + 5 mL of LB + 1 colony of pDCAF3 E. coli

Added .5 grams of caffeine + 400 uL of 1M MgSO4 + 20 uL 1M CaCl2 + 40 mL M95x salts + H2O to YNB + H2O mixture

  • Labeled this "M9 media"

Inoculated frozen stock of E. coli guaB pDCAF3 in 5 mL of M9 media

Placed sample in 30 degree celsius shaker for culturing

Wednesday 11th June

Inoculated CBB1 frozen stock in 5 mL of M9 media

Placed sample in 30 degree celsius shaker

Purified pDCAF plasmid using DNA mini kit

  • Plasmid concentration was 132.9 ng/uL


Friday 13th June

Added 10 uL deionized H2O into the J23114 promoter plasmid (Ampᴿ)

Followed bacterial transformation protocol to prepare/grow culture overnight

Inoculated 5 mL of M9 with CBB1 and placed it in 30 degree celsius shaker for 3 days

  • Previous CBB1 culture did not grow, showed slight growth
  • pDCAF3 strain in M9 did grow in the 30 degree celsius shaker


Monday 16th June

No growth in M9 by CBB1

To grow the promoter plasmid:

  • 5 mL of LB + 1 uL Amp
  • Label tubes
  • Grow in 30 degree celsius shaker overnight


New CBB1 trials:

  • 2 tubes of 1 mL M9 + 2 tubes of 1 mL LB each with 10 uL of sample


Purify genomic DNA plasmid following the Wizard Protocol

  • Added lysis buffer before centrifuging. So we separated (translate) sample into 2 tubes and will (translate) accordingly
  • We put our 2 promoter plasmid plates in the 4 degree celsius shelf


Tuesday 17th June

Quantified gDNA with TECAN

  • Result: 5.4 ng/uL


Made 2 plates of M9 culture and 2 plates of CBB1 culture (100 uL used) then placed them in 37 degree celsius shaker

Wednesday 18th June

Autoclaved 50% glycerol

Made four 25% glycerol stock solutions (stored in the -80 degree celsius freezer):

  • CBB1 in M9 (x2 1.5 mL tubes)
  • Promoter 1
  • Promoter 2 (both promoter plasmids are J23114 Ampᴿ)


Purified both promoter plasmids using the purification protocol

  • Stored in the -20 degree celsius freezer in the DNA box
