The PCR results showed no correct one. We can’t see TRPC5 band.
 +
 +
The rightmost one: Digested PBX123 backbone for TRPC5 is the gel extraction from step 1(Conc. 61.8ng/μl).The band should be around 8000bp. While the result is larger than 10000bp. This indicates that the extracted plasmid is not right.

6. Pick up single colonies
 +
 +
Since the results from the Colony PCR of TRPC5 ligation was not very promising, we pick up 6 colony from the plate. Add into 5ml Amp LB, shake at 37℃.
 +
 +
The signal colonies are picked for the PCR process to make sure that Colony PCR it self have nothing to do with the failure.

We pick up 20 single colonies from the plate of Gibson group, 2 colonies from both control group 1 and 2. There are no colonies on plates of control group 3 and PBX090.

The expected brightness (~3k bp) appeared with TRPC5 T5-GFP PCR.

As we can see, the expected brightness (~3k bp) also appeared. It means that our TRPC5 PCR purification product is no problem, while the other four T5 products which were did before all have problem. So the four can’t be used, we will go deep by using the new TRPC5 PCR purification product.

Discussion:
 +
 +
Compare new and old plate, it comes out that some is wrong with the plate for its antibiotic function.
 +
 +
We thinks there may be two reason for this:
 +
 +
1.the antibiotics is inactived.
 +
 +
2.there is some distribution problem in the production of plate.
 +
 +
3.there is some concentration issue with the antibiotic.
 +
 +
There is also some problem with the ligation of TPRC6 and PBX133 backbone.

#* Add 1 μl Ampicillin solution to each LB agar plate and spread.Add 1 μl Kanamycin solution to each LB agar plate and spread.

#* 2 Let them stay for 3 hours.

#* 3 Add 25 μl competent cell to each plate. Incubate for 16 hours in 37 ℃

The number of colonies decreases as the concentration of PBX-123

backbone increases,which is strange,so we need to do a gel running after

1.Select single colony
 +
 +
All 3 culture dishes grow many colonies,but we still need to do colony
 +
 +
PCR to confirm they are blunt-ended.Ling Shaohua has designed the primer
 +
 +
for colony PCR,we need to ask Pro.Huang whether it’s right.
 +
 +
So we select 10 colonies,each with 10ul Amp+ LB broth and store at cold
 +
 +
room.When the primer is verified and synthesized,we will do colony PCR
 +
 +
and extract plasmid from those colonies which are confirmed to be right.

I. Primer 1~4 are not good enough,cause they all can match with CHO cell’s gDNA and have PCR products.

3. Conclusion:
 +
 +
I. Primer 1~4 are all not contaminated and have specific PCR band with annealing temperature of 65℃,while they don’t have PCR product band with annealing temperature of 70℃.

II. Raising annealing temperature can reduce unspecific amplification,while it can also decrease the PCR efficiency and cause Ct increasement.Also we need to verify whether the product band is what we need.

 +
 +
I.Can’t use ‘TaKaRa-One Step SYBR PrimeScript RT-PCR Kit II’,cause our sample is DNA.
 +
 +
II.We forgot to add ‘PrimeScript Enzyme Mix’ at the beginning,which may cause inaccurate results.
 +
 +
III.We forgot to change pipette tips during the dilution,which may bring huge deviation.
 +
 +
IV.Two-step PCR has a low amplification efficiency in our experiment.To increase the efficiency,we need to use three-step PCR.

Obviously, positive control turns out to be positive result, while negative control and the samples are negative results, so that our freezing cells are not polluted and we can store them into liquid nitrogen (big liquid nitrogen cell storage tank 3-4).

Digest the ends of TRPC5 for ligation.

Since we have the PBX123 with sticky ends of Age I and Bcl I, we should digest TRPC5 with Age I enzyme and Bcl I.

Firstly, we digest TRPC5 with Age I (activity:100%).The system (total 90μL):

Incubate at 37℃ for two hours.

Then, we digest TRPC5 with Bcl I (activity:75%).

We add Bcl I enzyme (1μL) into the final system of the first digestion. Incubate at 50℃ for six hours.

Digest the product of plasmid purification (step 1. today).

We digest the product of plasmid purification of pick up single colonies of streak plate of colony PCR group9&11&15 to test its linking.

As we digest the plasmid with only one enzyme, we only get linear 15k bp DNA. Obviously, group9&15 are positive.

6. Restriction Enzyme Digestion(B) and gel electrophoresis

We decide to digest the product of plasmid purification of colony PCR group 9&15 with Bam-HI and Bgl I to ensure they are exactly correct.

The rightmost one: Digested PBX123 backbone for TRPC5 is the gel extraction from step 1(Conc. 61.8ng/μl).The band should be around 8000bp. While the result is larger than 10000bp. This indicates that the extracted plasmid is not right. </blockquote> 5. Restriction enzyme digest(PBX123 backbone for PIEZO, PIEZO, both MfeI&BamHI&PmeI)

Discussion:

Compare new and old plate, it comes out that some is wrong with the plate for its antibiotic function.

We thinks there may be two reason for this:

1.the antibiotics is inactived.

2.there is some distribution problem in the production of plate.

3.there is some concentration issue with the antibiotic.

There is also some problem with the ligation of TPRC6 and PBX133 backbone.

  1. To check whether Ampicillin and Kanamycin are effective
    • Add 1 μl Ampicillin solution to each LB agar plate and spread.Add 1 μl Kanamycin solution to each LB agar plate and spread.
    • 2 Let them stay for 3 hours.
    • 3 Add 25 μl competent cell to each plate. Incubate for 16 hours in 37 ℃
    Result:There is no any colony in each plate. So Ampicillin and Kanamycin are effective.

Discussion:

The number of colonies decreases as the concentration of PBX-123

backbone increases,which is strange,so we need to do a gel running after

extracting the plasmid to confirm whether the PBX-123 has problem.

4. Ligation product transform,select single colony and shake colony (1 tubes)

Results: only one culture dish grows 1 colony

TRPC5 plasmid construction

1.Select single colony

All 3 culture dishes grow many colonies,but we still need to do colony

PCR to confirm they are blunt-ended.Ling Shaohua has designed the primer

for colony PCR,we need to ask Pro.Huang whether it’s right.

So we select 10 colonies,each with 10ul Amp+ LB broth and store at cold

room.When the primer is verified and synthesized,we will do colony PCR

and extract plasmid from those colonies which are confirmed to be right.

I. Primer 1~4 are not good enough,cause they all can match with CHO cell’s gDNA and have PCR products.

II. Primer 2~4 are contaminated.

III. Primer GAPDH has unspecific PCR product,so it can’t be used.

3. Conclusion:

I. Primer 1~4 are all not contaminated and have specific PCR band with annealing temperature of 65℃,while they don’t have PCR product band with annealing temperature of 70℃.

II. Raising annealing temperature can reduce unspecific amplification,while it can also decrease the PCR efficiency and cause Ct increasement.Also we need to verify whether the product band is what we need.

I. The standard curve efficiency is 140%,it may result from the adding of wild type gDNA in the preparation of standard point.

II. The Ct of wild type gDNA is 26,which indicates that it has been contaminated.So the copy number results are not precise,we can only compare their differences.
