Protocol: follow on this link

What we did on the lab:
Method:
1. 20 ml of warm LB + agar is placed in a 50 ml Falcon and 20 l of carbenicillin 50 mg/ml added, swirl to mix
2. Aliquot 1 ml of LB + agar in 2 ml sterile tubes (10 tubes per each culture, so 20 tubes total)
3. When the mixture solidified, soak a toothpick in bacterium culture and stab the LB agar several times
4. Grow overnight at 37 °C and next day place it at 4°C

Aim: we received our gene block synthetized DNA constructs in lyophilized form. In order to ligate them in our plasmid, we need to resuspend them in buffer.
Add TE buffer in each tubes and refer to the next table for volumes

Name	Weight (mg)	Cfinal (ng/&micro ;l)	V(TE) (&micro ;l)
A1	500	10	50
A2	500	10	50
C1	1000	10	100
C2	1000	10	100
D1	500	10	50
D2	500	10	50
E1	500	10	50
E2	500	10	50
B2	1000	10	100

Table 7

Aim: We want to have only the DNA backbone of pET43.1a(+) and pSB1C3, not the inserts that lie between the restriction sites. SpeI/ XbaI or BamHI/HindIII respectively, so we have to extract the plasmid backbone on out of an agarose gel. Furthermore, to clean the pET43.1a(+) and pSB1C3 backbones we use the gel extraction kit of QIAGEN. Afterwards we ligated our plasmid with the inserts. In this experiment we use inserts C1 and C2

Protocol: follow in this link

What we did in the lab:
Material:
• We use the NEB extraction kit. Monarch DNA Gel Extraction Kit (/#T1020G)

Method:
1. Excise the DNA fragment from the agarose gel and transfer to 1 ml Eppendorf tube.
2. Add 4 volumes of gel dissolving buffer (NT1) to the gel slice. For NT1 volumes, refer to the Table 8: .

		Empty Eppendorf (g)	Eppendorf + gelf (g)	Final weight (mg)
pET43.1a(+)	m1	0.9	1.3	329.6
pET43.1a(+)	m2	0.9	1.3	265.3
pSB1C3	m1	0.9	1.2	251.1
pSB1C3	m2	1.0	1.2	185.6

Table 8

3. Incubate the samples between 37-55°C vortexing periodically until the gel slice is completely dissolved (/ ~ 10min)
4. Load sample onto the column. Close the cap, spin for 1 min then discard flow though
5. Re insert column into collection tube. Add 200 µl DNA wash buffer and spin for one minute. Discard flow-through
6. Repeat step 5
7. Transfer column to a clean 1.5 ml microfuge tube
8. Add 6 µl of DNA Elution buffer to the center of the matric. Wait for 1 min and spin for 1 min to elute DNA

Aim: after digestion of the plasmid backbone we now proceed with the digestion of the inserts C1 and C2.

Protocol: follow in this link

What we did in the lab:
Material:

Method:
Add all reagents in 1 ml Eppendorf

- Digest during 2 h at 37 °C
- For the reagent volumes, refer to the Table 9. Total volume = 50 µl

		C1
DNA (µl)	20	20
BamHI (µl)	1	1
HindIII (µl)	2	2
H20 (µl)	22	22
CutSmart(µl)	5	5
