PDD Subgroup Work

• nothing

LifeAct

• redid colony PCR with 24 new colonies. Results looked good, with many bands at expected length of 357.

• will miniprep in the afternoon.

PDD Subgroup Work

• talked to Jin. He was not able to look at the combinations from Friday. :(
• Jin says to let all the different combinations rest, and focus on the 1934 payload.
• Jin also says to start the minimal media testing to see if pb6 works.

Lifeact

• ran colony PCR for 32 colonies.

• minipreped 30 and 32, but they turned out to be contransformed. Of 32 colonies, 7 were contransformed.

NLS

• sequencing results looked okay.
• iGEM_028, CK lefty looks perfect except for a point mutation in the EcoR1 site. Looking at the abi, i think it might be a miscall.
• iGEM_029, CK Righty looks perfect except for a one base deletion after the Pts1 site. Looking at the Abi file, exactly at this point, the sample gets mixed reads. ?
• iGEM_030, CA Righty looks perfect except for the point mutation in the Ecor1 site. Looking at the abi, i think it might be a miscall.

• picked and grew up 1, 2, 6, 7, to make competent cells.

• most of my transformations with the new competent cells were successful.

• competent cell checks for new 1 and new 6 looked good.
• miniprepped IBB as CA lefty, CK lefty and CK righty, and sent out for sequencing with ca998.

• controls for JTK030 looked good with no growth on Kan, Amp, Cam, good growth on LB, and a little growth on Spec, which is the normal result because of mutations in the bacteria. Those are labeled with double black stripes, in a box in the back of the -80 in the 2nd row from the top.

Kan
LB
Cam
Amp
Spec

• picked and grew up the results of PCA for the new nuclear localization tag. They had plenty of colonies, with only one background green colony. Will miniprep them tomorrow.
• did small scale competent cell prep of 1 and 6.
• did the following transformations (1old:2348), (5 old:2291) (6 old:2291) (6 new:2291),(3 old :2348) (3 old: 2349) (3 old:2291) (2 old:2348) (2 old: 2349)(2 old:2291) (2 new:2348) (2 new:2349) (2 new: 2291), (1 new:2331) (1 new:2333) (1 new:2348) (1 new:2349) (1 new: 2291) (6 new 2348) (6 new:2349), (IBB into lefty).
• redid assembly of stage 0 of life act but with 2.4 μL of each DNA and 1.2 μL of 5x NEB2.
