8/13

Competent Cell Check

  • Ligation results suggest a problem with competent cells.
    • Transformed 3 μL of TetR promoter into 3 tubes of 50 μL of comp. cells taken from 2 different tubes.

Ligation

  • Ligation from 8/12 did not show any growth on any plates, suggesting competent cells may be bad.
  • Started a new ligation to save until competent cells can be checked.

TesA+RBS insert with LacI+backbone

Ethanol

  • Started seed of PACYC from plate started yesterday.
  • Started seed of BL21 in preparation to make competent cells.
