    Muy lejos, más allá de las montañas de palabras, alejados de los países de las vocales y las consonantes, viven los textos simulados. Viven aislados en casas de letras, en la costa de la semántica, un gran océano de lenguas. Un riachuelo llamado Pons fluye por su pueblo y los abastece con las normas necesarias. Hablamos de un país paraisomático en el que a uno le caen pedazos de frases asadas en la boca. Ni siquiera los todopoderosos signos de puntuación dominan a los textos simulados; una vida, se puede decir, poco ortográfica.</p><br/>

<p>Ask for the NDronpa sequence. This will be part of our blue toggle. </p>
 +
 
 +
<p>This piece is known by reading the paper ‘Reversible photoswichable Dronpa-1 monitors nucleocytoplasmic transport of an RNA-binding protein in transgenic plants?(Doi: 10.111/j.1600-0854.2011.01180.lambda.).</p>
 +
 
 +
<p>The sequence of NDronpa is plant optimised and avoid cryptic sequences. We have domesticated this sequence with a linker in N-terminal to allow us to join it to a binding domain and also we had a NLS in the C-terminal to transport itself to the nucleus. It is domesticated as B5 part for Golden Braid assembling. </p>
 +
 
 +
<p>After obtaining the sequence we compare the protein in Uniprot and we can observed that our sequence add a V in the position 2. We compare this results with other papers and none of them has this addition. When we compare this sequence with the paper ?Optical control protein activity by fluorescent protein domains?(Doi: 10.1126/science.1226854)  we observed that our position 146 is the position 145 and as what we want is the interaction caused by the N145-K145, we eliminate the V. We also eliminate a pair of amino acids at the end of the sequence following the same criteria. </p>
 +
 
 +
<p>Once obtained both variants of Dronpa, we decided to add the binding domain to KDronpa and the activation to NDronpa as this last one tetramerizes and all operator sequence are repeated in our promoters.</p>

27 May 2015

Starts our work in the lab!

Marta, a lab mate gives us a construction, the red toggle swich (E:PIF6:PhyB:VP16:Etr8:luc), we just have to add the renilla; α2 (GB160) to test it.

Make the ligation (step 2 in the protocol):

4 June 2015

Ask for the NDronpa sequence. This will be part of our blue toggle.

This piece is known by reading the paper ‘Reversible photoswichable Dronpa-1 monitors nucleocytoplasmic transport of an RNA-binding protein in transgenic plants?(Doi: 10.111/j.1600-0854.2011.01180.lambda.).

The sequence of NDronpa is plant optimised and avoid cryptic sequences. We have domesticated this sequence with a linker in N-terminal to allow us to join it to a binding domain and also we had a NLS in the C-terminal to transport itself to the nucleus. It is domesticated as B5 part for Golden Braid assembling.

After obtaining the sequence we compare the protein in Uniprot and we can observed that our sequence add a V in the position 2. We compare this results with other papers and none of them has this addition. When we compare this sequence with the paper ?Optical control protein activity by fluorescent protein domains?(Doi: 10.1126/science.1226854) we observed that our position 146 is the position 145 and as what we want is the interaction caused by the N145-K145, we eliminate the V. We also eliminate a pair of amino acids at the end of the sequence following the same criteria.

Once obtained both variants of Dronpa, we decided to add the binding domain to KDronpa and the activation to NDronpa as this last one tetramerizes and all operator sequence are repeated in our promoters.


5 June 2015

We had 2 cultures from the last day, corresponding to other 2 colonies of ligation.

Agrobacterium culture of promoter less: Luciferase + Renilla

Minipreps

Digestion with BamHI and EcoRV

Agarose gel 1%

How to ask and make primers?

  • Select the sequence to amplify and save in FASTA format.
  • gbCloning, go to Tools-Domesticator-1?Category
  • Add FASTA and select parts.
  • On the protocol we have the primers
  • The oligos they give us:
    • 4 first nucleotides: so the enzyme can recognize without problems
    • 6 following bingind sites.
    • 1 extra nucleotide.
    • 4 overhangs.

Meeting with Daniel Ramón (Biopolis).

7 June 2015

We’ve got white colonies from PIF+Phy and BxbI!

Pick two colonies from each construction.


8 June 2015

Minipreps of the 4 liquid cultures and digestion to see the band patterns.

Repeat digestion because we are not sure of the last digestions.

We don’t have sure the toggle, so we decide to repeat the digestion with other enzyme tomorrow, noticing that the colony 2 has better bands pattern.

Optimized ligation:

PIF-PhyB-Luc-Renilla-P19
1 µL vector
0.8 µL dilution ?GB160
1.7 µL PIF:PhyB
4.15 µL H2O
Ratio 1:2 vector insert

As BxbI was good at the digestion we put 1 µL of LB and 1 µL of Kanamicyne on the tube where it had grown and store at 37ºC to glycerinate later.

We design primers to binding domain (BD) and PIF.

  • Problem: domesticator is introduced in an old pUPD2. The new one has different bases.
  • Change manually the pUPD2 bases in the program (Benchling).

9 June 2015

Digestion of the ligation of yesterday containing: EPIF6-PhyB-VP16 (C1 y C2)

We see three bands: 7000, 4000, 1900pb

Transform optimized ligation PIF-Phy-Luc-Renilla-P19 and make petri dish cultures.


10 June 2015

  • Check the primers and order LexA, Gal4, PIF6, LacI, Dronpa.
  • Check linker VP16 (88E) and make a primer for it.
  • Take out glycerinate of Ω2.

Alfredo’s part is not working.

  • Make liquid culture of E:PIF6:PhyB:VP16:luc:ren (C1-C3).

Transformation into Agrobacteriumof Renilla (GB160) because we could not join this construction with PIF:PhyB and so we will do a cotransfection of both plasmids.Make petri dish culture.


12 June 2015

The petri dish with PIF:PhyB:luc was taken out the 37ºC room and put into the fridge to pick colonies tomorrow.


13 June 2015

Pick colonies to make liquid culture:

  • Renilla in agrobacterium: just one colony, it was made liquid culture but check carefully the gel.
  • It was noticed that the piece 160, renilla, needs a pSub plasmid to replicate itself so we will transform 160 into a agrobacterium with this plasmid (C58 pSub).
BxbI; α1+PhyB; α2
1µl BxbI

5.6 µl H2O
  • It was not possible to pick colonies of the Agrobacterium transformed with renilla because they did not grow. Maybe the problem is that with tetraciclyn bacterias grow slowly. Wait 1 day more.
  • Transformation of the ligation, BxbI+35S:E-PIF6:tnos; Ω1, into E. coli.Make petri dish culture.

16 June 2015

  • Transformation of the ligation, KDronpa, into E. coli.

22 June 2015

  • We made minipreps of the liquid culture of the day before:
    • LacIBD; pUPD2 (C1-C5)
    • LexABD; pUPD2 (C1, C2)
    • Etr8(CMV):Bxb1 (C1-C3)
    • PIF6; pUPD2 (C1-C5)
    • VP16; pUPD2 (C1, C4, C5)
  • Make the digestions of all the minipreps:
LacIBD, pUPD2NotI2046, 1053
LexABD, pUPD2 NotI2046, 321
Etr8(CMV):Bxb1 NotI1532, 1290, 5896
PIF6,pUPD2 NotI2046, 407
VP16, pUPD2 NotI2046, 500
  • Refresh the viral system that a lab mate borrow to us. This is going to be use to agroinfiltrate some plants to make some cool draws to sent to a TV programm so they can watch what are we doing. This cultures consist of three parts divided in three Agrobacteriumcolonies. They are the citoplasm, the fluerescent protein (GFP, DsRed or YFP) and the integrase, in our case PhiC31.
  • We received the reporter BxbI (RepBxbI)!
    • 500ng of sample
    • Centrifuge at 3000rpm for 5 seconds (spin).
    • Add 50 µl H2O
    • Shake it and let at 50ºC for 20min
  • Make a PCR of Gal4 and NDronpa (9-10), the primers of NDronpa are aliquoted.

Make an agarose gel with all the digestions:

    • LexABD (5+6), pUPD2 (1 and 2)
  • We have taken out of the -80ºC fridge the glycerinate of GFP; pUPD2 (GB0059)/ampicilin.
  • The liquid culture of Renilla (ryfampicin/kanamycin/tetracyclin) does not grow after the two days required. So we decide to refresh two new colonies, one of them in a tube with the three antibiotics and another with rifampicina and kanamicine. Asun says that the tetracycline slow down the growth of Agro.
  • The 4 liquid cultures of LexA+IPTG/+gal are all blue: throw them.
  • We ordered again the primer n?0 (NDronpa R1). Changing one codon in 3?and delete another in 5?

24 June 2015

Pick colonies of the plates done yesterday and pass them into a liquid medium:

  • LacIBD+PIF; α1 (C1, C2)
  • Gal4BD; pUPD2 (C1)
  • RepBxb1; pUPD2 (C1-C3)
  • LacIBD+KDonpa; α1 (C1, C2)

Muy lejos, más allá de las montañas de palabras, alejados de los países de las vocales y las consonantes, viven los textos simulados. Viven aislados en casas de letras, en la costa de la semántica, un gran océano de lenguas. Un riachuelo llamado Pons fluye por su pueblo y los abastece con las normas necesarias. Hablamos de un país paraisomático en el que a uno le caen pedazos de frases asadas en la boca. Ni siquiera los todopoderosos signos de puntuación dominan a los textos simulados; una vida, se puede decir, poco ortográfica.
