− The same PCR as 08/07/2016 was carry out but this time adapted to get 50µL final volume. Clones from transformations (28/06/2016) with two other plasmids were tested as well: [[Team:Paris_Saclay/Notebook/June/28#pPS16_008|pPS16_008]] and [[Team:Paris_Saclay/Notebook/June/28#pPS16_009|pPS16_009]].

Biobrick characterization
Electrocompetents and transformation by electroporation of BL21
By Charlène
BL21 cells were grown up to OD600nm =7.14. They were then made competent and transformed with K1372001 extracted from clone 2 and pcl_TAA, pcl_TAG or pcl_Tq to create the following strains:
BL21|K1372001+pcl_TAA
BL21|K1372001+pcl_TAG
BL21|K1372001+pcl_Tq
Bringing DNA closer
DH5α transformation with DS-NMcas, DS-SPcasN-, DS-ST1casN- and DS-TDcasN-
By Laetitia and Mathilde
DS-NMcas, DS-SPcasN-, DS-ST1casN- and DS-TDcasN- plasmids were resuspended with 5μL of sterilized water.
5 tubes were prepared :
one control tube with only 50μL of DH5α heat-shock competent cells
four tubes with 50μL of DH5α heat-shock competent cells + 1μL of plasmid
The regular heat-shock competent cells transformation protocol was used.
Transformed cells were plated in duplicata (10μL and 50μL) on 8 Petri dishes (spectinomycin 50μg/mL). Control cells were plated on another plate (spectinomycin 50μg/mL).

Colony screening PCR on bacteria transformed with pPS16_004 and pPS16_007
By Alice
The colony screening PCR of the 08/07/16 is performed again. 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 (1152_pheoF and 1151 5_pheoR) upstream and downstream the insertion site are chosen. PCR products expected below :

Electrophoresis of high fidelity PCR products
By Caroline
The PCR products from 08/07/2016 on clones pPS16_001 , pPS16_002 , pPS16_003 , pPS16_005 ,pPS16_006 and pPS16_007 were migrated into a 0.8% agarose gel containing BET for 30min.
We obtained the same bands without offtarget but we can not send them to sequence because we do not have enough solution and concentration.
High fidelity PCR
By Caroline
The same PCR as 08/07/2016 was carry out but this time adapted to get 50µL final volume. Clones from transformations with two other plasmids (28/06/2016) were tested as well: pPS16_008 and pPS16_009 .
