Export Systems
3 of our 5 constructs were not properly cloned, so we are going to redo them:
- PCRed out backbones for pTG002, pTG003, and pTG006 with overhangs
- PCR product was then DpnI digested and PCR-purified. A gel was run with processed and unprocessed product to verify backbone creation
- Gibson assembly of pTG002, pTG003, and pTG006 (pTG006 had 2 reactions: 1 with the backbone created last week, since it had been verified to work for cloning pTG005, and another with backbone created today)
- Assemblies were transformed into JM109, plated on carbenicillin plates, and incubated overnight
lamBCDA & fsrABC Reception Systems
- 4 cultures of JM109 were transformed, plated on Kan + Cm plates, and incubated overnight at 37°C:
- pMB001 and pMB003
- pMB002 and pMB003
- pMB004 and pMB006
- pMB005 and pMB006
agrBCDA Reception System and Combinatorial Promoters
For the agrBCDA System, we troubleshot our problems creating the pAA009/10 vector backbone:
- Ran a gel of the PCR product created on Friday (pAA009/10 backbone). Results were negative.
- Tried PCR again with lower annealing temperatures [(what temps?)]. Results were negative again.
For the combinatorial promoters:
- Set up overnight culture of jwAA001 strain to do more experiments tomorrow
