Repetition of the digest with NEB enzymes (RE)

  • incubated for 1 h at 37°C

analysis on 1 % agarose gel: digest worked and the backbones were extracted from the gel (TAE buffer was exchanged before running the gel, maybe it caused the problems with DNA destruction instead of the restriction enzymes)

PCR for pOP Gibson (JN)

As the fragments for the pOP vector were wrongly cloned, there is a antibiotic resistance missing after the first Gibson Assembly. Therefore, colonies cannot be selected for taking up the plasmid. Yesterday we tried an approach with a 5 fragment Gibson Assembly but no colonies were growing on the plate overnight. The next approach is to assemble two and accordingly 3 fragments via PCR. We decided to use fragments 5, 1 and 2 for one reaction, where the antibiotic resistance would be restored. The other reaction should assemble fragments 3 and 4. The PCR reaction mixes were prepared as follows. For the first reactions, the primers pOOP_5fw and pOOP_2rv were used, for the second pOOP_3fw and pOOP_4rv. As template a 1:10 dilution of the prepped pJet constructs (1) from yesterday was prepared. From this dilution 1µl per fragment was used.
