sbb14
For construction, sbb14 will be created as three sections which will then be connected by SOEing PCR. Each section is constructed by amplifying a template DNA from a plasmid using standard PCR amplification. The resulting sections have complementary overlapping sequences (either at the beginning, end, or both), which allow the sections to be attached to each other by SOEing PCR to produce the final part.

Additionally, a strong RBS was generated using and added to the first forward oligo to be incorporated into the first section.

=Assembly=

Overall Progress
Performed initial step of PCA assembly of sbb12 and initial step of SOEing PCR for sbb14. sbb12 progress: Design --> Assembly --> Amplification --> Reassembly --> Cloning sbb14 progress: Initial PCR Reactions --> Zymo Clean-up --> Secondary PCR Reactions --> Cloning

sbb12
Experimental Oligo Mixture was provided at 100uM Initial assembly of the PCA oligo mixture was performed according to the following protocol: 1. 38 uL ddH2O 2. 5 ul 10x expand buffer 3. 5 ul 2mM dNTPs 4. 1 ul oligo mixture (100uM total, mixture of oligos after combination of 100uM stocks) 5. 0.75 ul Expand polymerase

The resulting mixture was then thermo-cycled according to the following program: 1. 2 min initial denature at 94oC 2. 30 sec denature at 94oC 3. 30 sec anneal at 55oC [This should be the overlap temp of your oligos - vary as needed] 4. 30 sec extension at 72oC 5. repeat 2-4 30 times total Note: thermo-cycling performed by GSI's

sbb14
Experimental All oligo samples were first diluted to 100uM by adding sufficient water (ddH2O) Then, 10uM samples of each oligo were prepared by combining 1uL of 100uM Oligo and 9uL of ddH2O

Three PCR tubes were labeled 1,2 and 3.

The following PCR protocol was used: 24uL ddH2O 3.3uL 10x Expand Buffer "2" 3.3uL dNTPs (2mM in each) 1uL Oligo 1, 10uM 1uL Oligo 2, 10uM 0.5uL Expand polymerase "1" 0.5uL Template DNA

A forward and reverse oligo were added to each tube according to the PCR protocol. Tube 1: AS009-F and AS010-R Tube 2: AS011-F and CA1674 Tube 3: CA1675 and AS012-R

Tubes 1,2 and 3 were then thermo-cycled according to the 2K55 program because each PCR product is less than 2000bp.

Overall Progress
Ran preparative gel for sbb14 SOEing reactions and performed a small-frag Zymo Cleanup followed by Fuzion amplification for sbb12 PCA sbb12 progress: Design --> Assembly --> Amplification --> Reassembly --> Cloning sbb14 progress: Initial PCR Reactions --> Preparative Gel --> Zymo Clean-up --> Secondary PCR Reactions

sbb12
Experimental Initial PCA Assembly reaction was purified by small fragment Zymo cleanup according to the following protocol: Small-Frag Zymo Cleanup

The following procedure removes the polymerase, dNTPs, buffer, and most of the oligonucleotides from a PCR reaction for fragments smaller than 300bp. It also will remove the buffer and restriction enzymes from a restriction digest reaction.

1. Add 100 uL of Zymo ADB buffer (brown bottle) to the reaction. 2. Transfer into the Zymo column (small clear guys) 3. Add 500uL of Ethanol and pipette up and down to mix 4. spin through, discard waste. 5. Add 200 uL of PE or Zymo Wash buffer (which is basically 70% ethanol) 6. spin through, discard waste. 7. Add 200 uL of PE or Zymo Wash buffer 8. spin through, discard waste. 9. spin for 90 seconds, full speed to dry. 10. elute with water into a fresh Eppendorf tube

The purified product was used as the template for the following PCR amplification protocol: Amplification

Now, you need to do an amplification of the correct full-length chunks. Clean up the assembly reaction with a zymo column; don't bother running it on a gel - it'll be a smeary mess and won't really help you. Save the purified product in case this step fails! For the amplification reaction, do a normal phusion program with 1 uL of the cleaned up assembly reaction as template, and using the outermost oligos for the chunk. That is: Recipe

1. 1 uL each outer oligo (10 uM) (Provided as F/R Oligos) 2. .5 uL phusion 3. 10 uL 5x phusion buffer 4. 5 uL 2mM dNTPs 5. 32.5 uL H2O 6. 1 uL Template

Program

1. 2 min initial denature at 94oC 2. 30 sec denature at 94oC 3. 30 sec anneal at 60oC [This should be high, as your outer oligos now have a huge overlap with the correct product] 4. 30 sec extension at 68oC 5. repeat 2-4 30 times total

Tube labeled AS Fuzion 04

sbb14
Experimental 6uL of each PCR reaction and 4uL of loading buffer were added to 3 Eppendorf tubes, labeled AS01, AS02 and AS03.

Resulting mixtures were then run on preparative gels.

Lane 3 = AS01 (976bp) Lane 4 = AS02 (514bp Lane 5 = AS03 (444bp)

Bands are at correct sizes; the PCR reaction was successful.

The three bands were cut out, placed in a 1.5mL microcentrifuge tube, and resuspended in 600uL of ADB buffer. PCR product mixture was stored until 2.24.2010.

Overall Progress
PCA Amplification reaction for sbb12 was successful and the product was purified using Small-Frag Zymo Cleanup. Performed Zymo Gel Purification and second PCR reaction for sbb14 sbb12 progress: Design --> Assembly --> Amplification --> Zymo Clean-up --> Restriction Digest --> Preparative Gel --> Cloning sbb14 progress: Initial PCR Reactions --> Preparative Gel --> Zymo Gel Purification --> Secondary PCR Reactions--> Analytical Gel --> Restriction Digest --> Cloning

sbb12
Analytical gel was run for PCA amplification product. Lane 4 = AS04 (259bp)

Smearing is expected with PCA, but a band nevertheless appears at the correct size. Amplification was deemed a success and a Small-Frag Zymo Cleanup was performed on the amplification product.

Restriction digest with EcoR1/BamH1 will be performed Friday, 2.26.2010.

sbb14
PCR Product mixture was purified using Zymo Gel Purification. Purified fragments were eluted in 50uL of ddH2O. Tube was labeled AS123.

Second round of PCR was then set up using the purified mixture of fragments as template DNA. AS009-F and AS012-R were used as the oligos for the PCR.

The following PCR protocol was used: 24uL ddH2O 3.3uL 10x Expand Buffer "2" 3.3uL dNTPs (2mM in each) 1uL Oligo 1, 10uM (AS009-F) 1uL Oligo 2, 10uM (AS012-R) 0.5uL Expand polymerase "1" 0.5uL Template DNA (AS123)

After thermocycling, a mixture of 6uL of product and 4uL of loading buffer was run on a preparative gel. Lane 7 = AS04 (259bp)

The appropriate band was then cut out of the gel and resuspended in 600uL of ADB buffer for weekend storage.

sbb14

No band was observed in Lane 6. SOEing failed.

Ran second round of SOEing PCR reactions again using added DMSO and a different thermocycling protocol in an attempt to troubleshoot failed SOEing. sbb12 progress: Design --> Assembly --> Amplification --> Zymo Clean-up --> Restriction Digest --> Preparative Gel --> Zymo Gel Purification --> Transformation --> Miniprep sbb14 progress: Initial PCR Reactions --> Preparative Gel --> Zymo Gel Purification --> Secondary PCR Reactions --> Analytical Gel --> Secondary PCR Reactions (initial set failed) --> Restriction Digest --> Transformation --> Miniprep

sbb12
The band cut out of the preparative gel was purified by Zymo Gel Purification. Digested/purified pBjk2741-Bca1144 was provided.

Product is 1868bp and vector backbone is 2170. Difference of 302bp should be noticeable on the gel. Lane 1 shows some separation, but less than would be expected. Lanes 3 and 4 show significantly more separation than would be expected.

Gel results are strange, clone 1 sent for sequencing.

Sequencing results show no match. Clones 3 and 4 were also sequenced, but also showed no match. Part will be worked on by GSIs.
