Characterization B: Expression of PHIX174 promoters fused to UTR1-deGFP.

  • Reboot and starting construction over from scratch.

Characterization C: Expression of PHIX174 promoters fused to UTRX-deGFP.

  • Reboot and starting construction over from scratch.

Hypothesis 2: Gene L is necessary for phage propagation.

  • Need to design new primers (regular and mutagenic) for amplifying PHIX174 genome.

To do

  • Today
    • To create the following linkers:
      1. SphI-PA-NcoI linker
      2. SphI-PD-NcoI linker
      3. SphI-PF-NcoI linker
      • Hydridize 2mM complimentary ssDNA oligonucleotides. Product is linker at 1mM concentration. Perform 1/10 serial dilutions to 100 nM final concentration.
    • To initiate the following linkers:
      1. SphI-PB-NcoI linker
      2. SphI-PG-NcoI linker
      3. SphI-PL-NcoI linker
      4. SphI-PLPA-NcoI linker
      • Perform PCR using ΦX174 genomic DNA as template.
      • Follow with PCR purification. Elute with 100 μL H2O and speedvac to ~20 μL.
      • Double digest overnight with SphI and NcoI.
  • Today +1
    • To obtain following linkers, perform Gel extraction (elute in 100 μL H2O, linkers should be at ~100nM concentration):
      1. SphI-PB-NcoI linker
      2. SphI-PG-NcoI linker
      3. SphI-PL-NcoI linker
      4. SphI-PLPA-NcoI linker
    • To create the following linkers:
      1. SphI-PA-NheI linker
      2. SphI-PB-NheI linker
      3. SphI-PD-NheI linker
      4. SphI-PF-NheI linker
      5. SphI-PG-NheI linker
      6. SphI-PL-NheI linker
