Incubation 1h30, 37°C

PCR

by Coralie

  • BBa_R0051

We use the rehydrated plasmid from the iGEM plate 2014

Reaction mix for 3 tubes:

  • GC Buffer (5x): 30µL
  • dNTP (10mM): 3µL
  • Forward Primer (1/10): 7,5µL
  • Reverse Primer (1/10): 7,5µL
  • Template DNA R0051 (2014): 5µL
  • DNA Pol Phusion: 1,5µL
  • H2O: 97,5µL

We use 50µL of that mix in each tube

Cycle: Initiation: 98°C - 30seconds Cycle (34 repeats): 98°C - 10seconds / 65°C - 30seconds / 72°C - 20seconds Term.: 72°C - 5min Keep it at 4°C

New culture

by Seong Koo

Observation of our plates: a lot of colony in each one. New liquid culture of:

  • BBa_K1399005
  • BBa_K1399019
  • BBa_K1399023
  • Ligation product: BBa_J23101 + BBa_K115017

2x 5ml LB + 10μl Chloramphenicol + 1 bacterial colony. We incubate cultures at 37°C, ON.
