Today is a short day. Yesterday, we picked 2 colonies from each failed clone plates and inoculate them; today, we minipreped and test digested them.

We are sending the gRNA from the third batch and some other reporter vectors for sequencing.

Yesterday, we digested more RBS-Carb; today, we ran it on gel and gel purified it. The concentration at the end was good.

Our clones on the plates transformed yesterday were good: many colonies on the plates and none on the negative.

Orientation! School is starting next week! (25/8) >.<

Today's tasks:

  • Miniprep ctxA, ctxB.
  • Test digest and ran gel for ctxA, ctxB.
  • 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).
