Transformation of standard components
- cultured bacteria did grow overnight
- 1 mL of each tube reserved to make glycerol stock
- extracted DNA from remaining 4 mL using standard protocol, used water for final extraction
Tue Jun 13
DNA nanostructure reaction PCR
- order of lanes: 1) 1kb ladder, 2) full rxn (oligos + scaffold), 3) just scaffold, 4) just oligos
- run on 2% agarose gel
- appears that reaction was successful (upload gel image)
