Gel Analysis (repeat)

- samples: c5.0A (no lids, no aptamers), c5.0C (no lids, inside aptamers), c5.0D (no lids, outside aptamers)

- 2.0% agarose gel: 2 g agarose + 100 μL 0.5x TBE + 1.1 mL 1 M MgCl₂ + 5 μL EtBr

- lanes:

            1 = ladder (10 μL)
            2 = p7308 scaffold (5 μL + 3 μL dye)
            3 = c5.0A (5 μL + 3 μL dye)
            4 = c5.0C (5 μL + 3 μL dye)
            5 = c5.0D (5 μL + 3 μL dye)

- run 1 hr. @ 130 V

- results: the folding did not succeed, as can be seen by the lack of bands in the 3rd through 5th lanes near the position of the scaffold
