* | * Characterization B: Previous attempts at cloning a UTR1-deGFP linker into pBEST-pA-BamHI//XhoI-T500 backbone have failed. Sequencing showed a systematic error, whereby a truncated ~100bp piece was ligated, instead of the full UTR1-deGFP linker. Re-digesting and purifying the backbone showed the same result. Therefore, I am focusing on the linker. My hypothesis is that the PCR was mis-primed, so I designed a different set of primers to make the BamHI-UTR1-deGFP-XhoI linker. They were received today. | ||
** BamHI-UTR1-deGFP-XhoI-T500 sense primer: AATAATTTTGTTTAACTTTAAGAAGGAGATA 31b Th = 57.6 °C | |||
* BamHI-UTR1-deGFP-XhoI-T500 antisense primer: ATGATAAAGAAGACAGTCATAAGTGC 26b Th = 57.3 °C | |||
* Template: pBEST-OR2OR1Pr-UTR1-deGFP-T500 | |||
* | |||
* Using these primers and template, performed standard PCR with TH | |||
* Hypothesis 3: Over the weekend, I attempted whole plasmid PCR to amplify PHIX174 by whole plasmid PCR (non-mutagenic primers) by the method described in [http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/content/26/4/1126.short Chen and Ruffner]. No amplification observed. One line at 45b observed, corresponding to self-hybridization of the primers. | |||
