Take glycerinated cultures of C58 Agrobacterium with dsRED from GoldenBraid Collection. Prepare broth culture (5 mL LB + 5 μL kanamycin + 5 μL Rifampin) 1:1000 and incubate overnight at 28^C.

19May

Refresh previously made culture by inoculating 10 μL in a new culture medium.

20May

Agroinfiltration in Nicotiana benthamiana of C58 with dsRED.

06Jun

  • Take from the glycerinates of Goldenbraid Collection:


Plasmid GB Code
pD6B3 α1 GB0015
pD6B3 α2 GB0017
pD6B3 Ω1 GB0019
pD6B3 Ω2 GB0021
pUPD2 GB0307


Prepare liquid culture (3 mL LB + 3 μL antibiotic) 1:1000. Incubate at 37^C overnight.

  • Experiment with snails:

Two experiments: one with infiltrated Nicotiana benthamiana and another with not infiltrated N.benthamiana (negative control). Lettuce leafs haven’t been correctly infiltrated and it seems that the expression level is low.
Let both N. benthamiana leafs with snails overnight at room temperature in separated boxes. We will observe if snails eat the leafs and if appears fluorescence.

15Jun

Experiment is over due to snails haven’t eaten leafs enough so we have not been able to see fluorescence.

Orange DNA Genome Extraction protocol href

  • Take from the glycerinates of GoldenBraid Collection:


Plasmid GB Code
omoter 35s:Cas9:nopaline synthase terminator (Tnos) GB0639
Luciferase (Luc) in pUPD2 GB0096
Tnos in pUPD2 GB0037


01Jul

Miniprep with E.Z.N.A ®. Plasmid Mini Kit I, Q(capless) Spin of:
Promoter 35s:Cas9 : Tnos

  • Luciferase and nopaline synthase terminator cultures haven’t succeed. Repeat Luc and Tnos cultures.


Primers IG16JUN01 and IG16JUN02 have arrived.

Finish orange DNA Genome Extraction and check DNA concentration with NanoDrop. Concentration is very low so extraction will be done again.
