Preparation of electrocompetent cells

by Arnaud & Romain

Strain used: E. coli MG1655Z1 and E. coli MG1655.

Protocol:

Two dilution of 200µl of bacterial culture MG1655Z1 and E. coli MG1655 in 15ml of LB at 30°C for each strain.

When the culture OD650 = 0,6:

  • put in ice during 10min.
  • centriguge at 4°C, 5min, 4000rpm.
  • Discard the supernatant, and resuspend the pellet in 15ml glycerol 10% COLD.
  • centriguge at 4°C, 5min, 4000rpm.
  • Discard the supernatant, and resuspend the pellet in 15ml glycerol 10% COLD.
  • centriguge at 4°C, 5min, 4000rpm.
  • Discard the supernatant, and resuspend the pellet in 200µl glycerol 10% COLD.

Transformation of electrocompetent cells

by Arnaud & Romain

Strain used: E. coli MG1655Z1 and E. coli MG1655. Plasmid used: BT640 (code for a flipase for E. coli)

Make 2 électroporations in cold electroporation cuvettes:

  • A control cuvette(without DNA): 50µl of E. coli MG1655Z1 or E. coli MG1655.
  • A second cuvette: 50µl of E. coli MG1655Z1 or E. coli MG1655 culture + 1µl of BT640 plasmid.

Electroporation : 2500V, 132W, 40µF.

After that, add 1ml of cold LB in each cuvette and transfer in 2 tubes.

Spread on 8 dishes LB + Cm:

  • 20µl of control E. coli MG1655Z1 (without plasmid)
  • 50µl of transformed E. coli MG1655Z1 with BT340.
  • 100µl of transformed E. coli MG1655Z1 with BT340.
  • Transformed and concentrated E. coli MG1655Z1 with BT340.
  • 20µl of control E. coli MG1655 (without plasmid)
  • 50µl of transformed E. coli MG1655 with BT340.
  • 100µl of transformed E. coli MG1655 with BT340.
  • Transformed and concentrated E. coli MG1655Z1 with BT340.

Incubate for a night at 30°C.

PCR

by Sean

Cultures used: MG1655Z1 10I and MG1655 100I.

Protocol

Note: although we have 2 cultures to prepare, it is recommended to prepare 3 tubes because of probable uncertainties when measuring volumes.

Liquid Culture

by Fabio

Due to an widespread infection of the cells made the 25th July, we collected the original strain DY330 to verify it's legitimacy.

2ml LB + 20μl of DY330. We incubate cultures at 30°C.

E - Salicylate Inducible Suppressing System

Plasmid DNA Purification

by Fabio

  • BBa_J61051
  • BBa_K228001

from Bacterial Culture made the 25th July.

Protocol

Digestion

by Fabio

Once we have a good amount of our BioBricks' plasmid, it's time to do the digestion.

TODO: Digestion's protocol

Electrophoresis

by Fabio

The Electrophoresis was used to verify the success of the Digestion and the success of the plasmid DNA purification at the same time.

  1. BBa_J61051 Cl.1
  2. BBa_J61051 Cl.2
  3. BBa_K228001 Cl.1
  4. BBa_K228001 Cl.2
