Experimental Methodology

For the assemblies constructuion we addopted the following method:


We used the pSB1C3 vector from the Biobrick BBa_J04450. Using this biobrick we added a red/white selection, where the red colonies are those which do not have the assembly, and the white ones are the correct ones.


See our Protocol

Assemblies forms

Assembly form template

This is the template designed to help with the laboratory organization during the assemble of biological parts. If you want to use the assembly method we used you can print the form and complete it for each construction. Hope it helps :)

  • PCR lasR (BBa_C0079). The purpose of this PCR was to add the RBS (BBa_K143021), through addition of the sequence in the primer foward, and also to remove the LVA tag. In our primers we only added the restriction sites X and S, so we still need to put it in the pSB1C3 for the Biobrick standard completion. When standardized this part will be called BBa_K1521001.

  • Transformation of the Biobricks:
    • BBa_143012
    • BBa_K081001
    • BBa_E0840
  • Inoculum of the Biobricks sent by iGEM HQ:
    • BBa_K316037
    • BBa_K316018
    • BBa_K316015
03/07 04/07 05/07 06/07
  • Inoculum:
    • BBa_143012
    • BBa_K081001
    • BBa_E0840
07/07 08/07 09/07
  • Inoculum:
    • BBa_B0015
10/07
  • Miniprep, Quantification and Restriction Analysis:
    • BBa_B0015 (restriction analysis fail, repeat)
  • PCR the qteE gene for amplification. We also added the RBS (BBa_K143021) using the foward primer. In our primers we only added the restriction sites X and S, so we still need to put it in the pSB1C3 for the Biobrick standard completion. When standardized this biobrick will be called BBa_K1521000.
  • Ligation of RBS+lasR in PTZ57R/T vector (instaclone kit)
11/07 12/07 13/07
14/07 15/07 16/07
  • Transformation:
    • BBa_K823003
    • RBS+qteE
  • Electrophoresis analysis:
    • BBa_B0015

  • Assembly AIII:
    • Restriction analysis (+NdeI enzyme)
    • OBS: This analysis was reapeted because we had problems confirming the assembly. The issue was that both the construction and the pSB1C3 vector had similar size.
  • Assembly AII, AV and AVI:
29/07 30/07 31/07
  • Assembly AII, AV and AVI:
    • Inoculum
  • PCR BBa_K143055 for RBS removal
  • OBS: This was one of the parts sent by the Imperial College Team. Because of a comunication failure we assumed that this part was comming without the RBS, so we included a RBS in the parts we were going to use with this Lac promotor :)
  • PCR of Plac BBa_K143055 was followed by a Gel Purification and Ligation in the PUC19 vector

  • Prepare Plac BBa_K143055 for sequencing
  • Analyse the RBS+qteE and RBS+lasR sequencing file
12/08
  • Digestion:
    • RBS+qteE
    • RBS+lasR
    • OBS: this digestion was performed so we clone this parts in the pSB1C3 vector to put them in Biobrick standard
13/08 14/08
  • Gel Purification and Ligation in pSB1C3 for BBiobrick standard:
    • RBS+qteE
    • RBS+lasR
  • Assemblies BII and BIII:
    • Gel Purification
    • OBS: we had some problems here with the purification and we lost all our digestions, so we're repeating the digestion

  • Assemblies DI, KVIII, KX and KXI:
  • We had far to many difficulties trying to remove the RBS from the BBa_K143055, so we decided to synthesize it using PCR.
  • PCR for synthesis of the BBa_143015 (BBa_143055 without RBS)
