Experiment 2: Transforming E. coli with Azo-reductase plasmids - Date: [10/07/2014]

Protocols
competent cells transformation miniprep digest gel


Background


Performed transformation of the following BioBricks using non-commercial competent cells:


  1. BBa_J23119
  2. BBa_R0010
  3. BBa_R0011
  4. BBa_K206000
  5. BBa_B0034
  6. BBa_B0012
  7. BBa_J04450
  8. BBa_E2050

Performed transformations of Lisbon plasmids using NEB competent cells (c2987):

  1. pPAzoR - P. putida Azo reductase
  2. pCotA - Laccase
  3. pPpDyP - P.Putida dye decolourizing peroxidase
  4. pBsDyP - B. subtilis dye decolourizing peroxidase
  5. p1B6 - Azoreductase 1B6 (mutated from AzoR)

Results


Lisbon plasmid transformation using NEB competent cells successfully grew when plated with the appropriate antibiotic

BioBrick plasmid transformations were successful, however the colonies had grown as a lawn making it difficult to pick a single colony.


Conclusion

Made overnight culture of lisbon plasmids, preparing to keep in glycerol stocks


Experiment 3: Diagnostic digest of azo-reductase plasmids - Date: [10/07/2014]
