Biobrick characterization

Digestion of the plasmid psB1C3 containing the biobrick K1327001

By Mathilde and Alice 

For each sample: 10 μL of DNA 2 μL fast digest buffer 1 μL Pst 1 6 μL H2O

Samples were incubated 5 min at 37°C. Loading Buffer was added for each solution. Samples were put on an agarose gel for an electrophoresis.

Migration of Cl1(K13) and Cl2 (K13)

Clone 1 didn't show any bands. Clone 2 showed bands at 2000 kb (corresponding to the size of psB1C3) and 1500 kb (corresponding to the size of biobrick K1327001)

We concluded that clone 2 contain the right insert.
















Then, plasmidic DNA of the remaining Clone 1 and 2 (from the extraction of 06/07/16) were re-concentrated using the following protocol:

  • Add 2 volumes of cold ethanol (100%)
  • Add the quivalent of1/10 of the remaining DNA of solution III
  • Put it 30 min at -20°C
  • Centrifuge 4 min at1700 rpm
  • Remove the supernatant
  • Add 1 mL of ethanol at 70% and inverse
  • Centrifuge 4 min at 1300 rpm
  • Let it dry 1 h
  • Dilute with 10 L of sterilized water.
  • Put it at -20°C

Visualization

DH5alpha|pUC19_Gblock Stock of glycerol

By Mathilde and Laetitia

Transformed cells containing Gblock:

  • 1.1 (6clones)
  • 1.2 (6clones)
  • 2.1(6clones)
  • 2.2(6clones)
  • 3.1(6clones)
  • 3.2(6clones)

For each sample, we made a stock puting 500 of culture and 250 of glycérol (60%)
