Protocol

C - Lemon scent

Plasmid DNA Extraction & Electrophoresis

by Terry

Biobricks used:

• 7. BBa_K762100 with pSB1C3 (Limonen synthase1 with RBS)

Protocol

Results of the PCR Targeting

by Romain

PCR targeting made the July 22nd. Strains used: DY330 (clone I and II). Plasmid used: pJBEI-6409 (code for enzymes to produce limonene from glucose in E. coli)

Results:

• Nothing has grown on the control dishes.
• Failure, nothing has grown on the clone I dishes.
• Failure, other bacteria have grown on the clone II dishes.

We have to make another PCR. Liquid culture of DY330 made in 30ml LB.

E - Salicylate Inducible Suppressing System

Plasmid DNA Extraction & Electrophoresis

by Terry

Biobricks used:

• 12 & 13. BBa_J45017 with pSB1C3 with pSB1AK3 (pchBA synthase (converts chorismate to salicylate))

Protocol

Transformation of competent E.coli cells

by Fabio

We transformed in DH5α both BioBricks rehydrated yesterday (BBa_J61051 and BBa_K228001).

Samples:

1. BBa_J61051 Concentrated
2. BBa_J61051 Undiluted
3. BBa_K228001 Concentrated
4. BBa_K228001 Undiluted
5. DH5α Control

Results on 25th July morning:

1. Success, grown very well (> 200 colonies)
2. Success, grown well (> 50 colonies)
3. Success, grown well (> 90 colonies)
4. Success, grown (15 colonies)
5. Success, nothing has grown
