Ligation day!!!
- As in the previous days there was no success in the ligations, I did four with different combinations in order to optimize the probabilities of getting colonies transformed with both, luciferase and the double terminator.
- The ligations were done for a total of 20μL, using different restriction enzymes and either the luciferase plasmid or the purified luciferase PCR product, and a double terminator (TT) amplified by PCR of the plasmid with the TT. All ligations were labeled as lig. 1-4 TAA M, ligación lucif + TT Mar
- 1: luciferase plasmid + TT PCR (1-F)
-H2O -----------------------> 6μL
-Buffer ligase -----------> 2μL
-Vector (plasmid) -----> 3μL
-Insert (luciferase) ---> 3μL
-Insert (double ter.) --> 5μL
-Ligase --------------------> 1μL
- 2: luciferase plasmid + TT plasmid
-H2O -----------------------> 7μL
-Buffer ligase -----------> 2μL
-Vector (plasmid) -----> 2μL
-Insert (luciferase) ---> 3μL
-Insert (double ter.) --> 5μL
-Ligase --------------------> 1μL
- 3: luciferase PCR + TT PCR
-H2O -----------------------> 7μL
-Buffer ligase -----------> 2μL
-Vector (plasmid) -----> 2μL
-Insert (luciferase) ---> 3μL
-Insert (double ter.) --> 5μL
-Ligase --------------------> 1μL
- 4: luciferase PCR + TT plasmid
-H2O -----------------------> 7μL
-Buffer ligase -----------> 2μL
-Vector (plasmid) -----> 2μL
-Insert (luciferase) ---> 3μL
-Insert (double ter.) --> 5μL
-Ligase --------------------> 1μL
- After the ligation, I transformed competent cells and plated them in tetracycline-LB plates.
