date coworkers lab activity short summary
22.09.2014 Lisa, Kathi IPG insertion of rcf21 colony-PCR –> only negative controls –> consultation of TR → modification of the protocol
19.09.2014 Fabian IPG preparation of large scale E. coli cultures For mass spectometric analyses, large amounts of bacteria with T4MBP are needed. Therefore 2 l of Origami 2 with pASK_T4MBP and 0,25 mM cadmium were prepared. The chassis Origami 2 with and without cadmium are used as controls (2 l each). Induction of proteinexpression with anhydrotetracycline. Growing at 25 °C for 3 d to reach a high OD
19.09.2014 Fabian IPG transformation of pASK (no insert) into Origami 2 Analyses showed that a comparable expression system for pASK_T4MBP is needed. Therefore chemical competent cells were made. Transformation via heat shock, incubation over weekend at 16 °C
19.09.2014 Kathi IPG insertion of rcf21 plasmid isolation from ONC; digestion of pORE-E3 (without XhoI and BglII-site) with MluI and BamHI; Annealing two primers (3 and 4) to build the rcf; phosphorylation of primer construct; dephosphorylation of digested vector. ligation of vector and insert; transformation of XL1-Blue Competent Cells. incubation over night (25 °C)
