Friday 8th July Lab work Visualization Colony screening PCR
on bacteria transformed with pPS16_004 and pPS16_007 By Alice
After transformation, only white bacteria are selected (blue white screen). They are expected to have plasmids with inserts of interest. PCR with DreamTaq DNA Polymerase is performed following this protocol . Clones selected for PCR are kept on LB+Amp+XGal(2µLXGal/1000µLH2O)+IPTG(2µLIPTG/1000µLH2O). Two primers (1151_pheoR and 1152_pheoF ) upstream and downstream the insertion site are chosen. . PCR products expected below :

5 µL of each PCR products and 10 µL of DNA ladder were placed in wells and migrated at 100v during 30 min.
No PCR products are observed, due to an error in the protocol : MilliQ water was used instead of steril water. The same PCR will be performed on 11/07/16.
Electrophoresis of the screening PCR products By Caroline
Amplification products from the 07/07/2016 screening PCR were put in a 0.8% agarose gel containing BET. The products in solution were mixed with purple loading dye and migrated for 30min.
Some clones showed PCR products with lengths close to those expected.
High fidelity PCR
By Caroline
The clones (from 05/07/2016 ) found with a rightful product lengths were used in another PCR this time with a high fidelity enzyme Q5. We used a high fidelity enzyme because to reduce the error ratio and sequence the PCR products. A PCR was carry out using Q5® High-Fidelity 2X Master Mix and following the usual protocol with universal pUC19 primers 1151_pheoR and 1152_pheoF .
