PCR to amplify HA_GFP_HisHis for surface immobilization (Ramona)

  • GFP was amplified from PCR product aqSK (with the appropriate binding sites; from AG Roth) with an amino-labeled reverse primer (qSK11) and a Cy3-labeled forward primer (qSK13)
Component Volume [µl]
aqSK 0.5
qSK11 2
qSK13 2.5
Phusion High GC Buffer 10
Phusion polymerase 0.5
dNTPs 2.5
ddH2O 32
  • 3fold master mix was prepared and divided into 3 PCR tubes
  • cycling conditions were chosen according to the lab journal entry from 16.8.15 (Luisa)
  • PCR product was cleaned-up with the PCR purification kit from Qiagen
  • result: ~60 µl DNA with a concentration of 66.1 ng/µl
  • 10 µl of the PCR product were analyzed on a 1 % agarose gel: amplification of GFP was successful (image could not be saved due to the scanner)

Expression of HA-GFP-His6-His6 on NiNTA slide

(Luisa)

  • HA-GFP-His6-His6 was expressed in 15 µl reactions
  • 2 reactions were performed as usual in a 1.5 ml tube
  • 6 reactions were performed by using a mastermix on a NiNTA slide in spots (2 slides with 3 reactions each)
  • 4 reactions were performed without DNA on a NiNTA slide in spots (2 slides with 2 reactions each)
  • all samples were incubated for 3 hours at 37°C with the slide being covered by parafilm instead of a microsope slide
  • after expression the slides will be incubated at 4°C over night and then measured in the iRIf
  • for more results please refer to SurChem lab journal

Expression of HA-GFP-His6-His6 on NiNTA slide

(Luisa)

  • HA-GFP-His6-His6 was expressed in 15 µl reactions
  • 2 reactions were performed as usual in a 1.5 ml tube
  • 6 reactions were performed by using a mastermix on a NiNTA slide in spots (2 slides with 3 reactions each)
  • 4 reactions were performed without DNA on a NiNTA slide in spots (2 slides with 2 reactions each)
  • all samples were incubated for 3 hours at 37°C with the slide being covered by a regular microscope slide
  • after expression the slides will be incubated at 4°C over night and then measured in the iRIf
  • for more results please refer to SurChem lab journal

when removing the microsope slide, the spots converged. The iRIf measurement will be performed anyway, but the entire experiment is repeated for distinct spots.

Repetition of variation of MgOAc start concentration in triplicates

(Koko)

  • finally came round to repeat critizised experiment
    • 20 µl rx's
    • 800 ng pBESTluc DNA (=2000 ng/50µl)
    • variation from 12 mM to 16 mM of MgOAc, as first experiment suggested 14 mM to be the optimum
    • 2 h, 37°C, 0 rpm
    • adding 20 µl Dilution agent + 50 µl Luciferase Assay reagent (immediately before platereading)

plate layout

1 2 3 4 5 6 7
D 12mM 13mM 14mM 15mM 16mM neg.(+Rmix) neg.(+H2O)
E 12mM 13mM 14mM 15mM 16mM neg.(+Rmix) air
F 12mM 13mM 14mM 15mM 16mM air air

Considerations

  • choosing smaller rx's was needed because of lack of luciferase assay reagent
  • new luciferase assay reagent AGAIN full of fungi, even after sterile filtering and storage at - 20°
  • very small pipeting steps between Mg-concentrations: 0,24µl - 0,26µl - 0,28µl - 0,30µl - 0,32µl –> high error quote possible

Results

  • results have been very inaccurate/ have high errors and do not confirm the findings of the first experiment.
  • i blame the small rx size and therefore very small pipeting volumes for the errors.

  • probably another repetition is needed :-|
Maxiprep of HA-GFP-His6-His6 and pBEStluc

(Luisa)

  • failed: c= 69 ng/µl and 183 ng/µl in 1 ml
  • Repitiotion of experiment from Tuesday
  • 50 µl reactions in black/transparent 384 well plate over time (2000 ng DNA/reaction)

Comparison of Koko's and Roth's Kit

(Koko)

  • Comparing kinetics of GFP expression, with linear and circular templates
  • in Koko's Mix: 25µl rx's with 1µg DNA each (=optimimum)
  • in Roth's Mix: 25µl rx's with 0,5µg DNA each (=optimimum)

plate layout

1 2 3 4
C Roth negative Roth mix + 0,5 µg linear Roth mix + 0,5 µg circular air
D Koko mix + 1 µg circular Koko mix + 1 µg circular Koko mix + 1 µg linear Koko negative
H GFP=? GFP dilution=?
  • overlaying reactions with 25µl of mineral oil (because Normann said so)
  • expression in platereader at 37° for 1:30h
  • fluorescence measurement every 2min
  • in 384 well plate, transparent, square bottom
  • added a few measurements after 1:30h because Koko's still looked like it was expressing

RESULTS

  • Roths don't know their GFP concentrations, so positive control is kinda worthless. Higher curve was green GFP, so probably very high concentrated; other one „1:9“ of unkown start concentration.
  • Roths Kit is expressing their own linear template in an extreme amount very fast, but nothing else:
  • circular DNA did not work in Roth's Kit at all
  • linear DNA did not work in Koko's Kit
  • very slow expression in Koko's Kit. After 1:30 only at less then 1/10th of usual sample emission values (about 8000-9000 in other experiments)
  • plasmid DNA is known to express better than linear templates, so why doesn't it work in Roth's Kit at all?
  • mineral oil still sucks because its harming the reaction, or is at least quenching emission values.
Cellfree expression on NiNTA
  • 3 samples with HA-GFP-His6-His6 DNA (2000 ng in 15 µl) and 3 samples without DNA were spotted on a slide with spotting mask
  • 2 slides were prepared as duplicates
  • Kokos lysate, premix and own amino acids were used
  • spotting pattern:
triplicate triplicate triplicate triplicate
spot pos (HA-GFP-His6-His6) neg (no DNA) GFP (pos control) bBSA (neg control)
spot pos (HA-GFP-His6-His6) neg (no DNA) GFP (pos control) bBSA (neg control)
spot pos (HA-GFP-His6-His6) neg (no DNA) GFP (pos control) bBSA (neg control)
Miniprep of GFP from iGEM Bielefeld
  • elution in 22 µl nuclease free water
  • concentration: 389 ng/µl
Maxiprep of HA-GFP-His6-His6 and pBEStluc
  • 2 x 250 ml were incubated over night
Kinetic assay for cellfree expression of luciferase
  • 3 assays were performed by adding luciferin and dilution reagent (25 µl) to 25 µl reactions in a white 96 well plate
  • measurements were taken every two minutes for 20 minutes (A1/B1 = measurement after 0 minutes of expression, A2/B2 = measurement after 2 minutes of expression, …)
  • samples were measured for 116 sec
  • triplicates A, B & C were measured by storing B and C on ice while measuring A (Premix and DNA were added just before measurement)
  • measurement of C was unreasonably noisy

10 bBSA 200 µg/ml
11 Max GFP 0,5mg/ml
  • all spots contain 2µl and have been incubated on the slide over night at 4° in a damp environment (wet towels) to keep them from evaporating.
  • afterwards, the PDMS spotting mask is taken off
  • the glass slide is N2-dried (using a wafer-gun)
  • slide is put onto PDMS-flowchamber, protein-side facing inwards, and softly pressed on.
  • slide and flowchamber are then being put into the iRIf-device and connected to the microfluidics.

Results:

Roi selection Exp. 46b: Spot 11 couldnt be selected due to air bubble on it
Binding curves of Exp. 46b for all spots
Binding curves of Exp. 46b only for spots 1-6

Spot 11 couldnt be evaluated due to air on it. Spot 1-3 show a-HA binding (weak but clear) and good a-GFP binding → successful cellfree expression.
No strepcy5 binding can be detected: Tube to flowchamber pulled off just before that step….

Repetition of MgOAc-variation in Bernhard-Koko system from Mon, 10.08.
  • this time using the right concentrations, otherwise exactly the same

Results:

  • system completely dead, no expression
  • –> Bernhard mix does not, as promised, work best between 15 and 18mM.
  • other explanation: our stock of MgOAc is unknowingly slightly higher concentrated than we think it is

a terrible mistake was made while pipeting the B-K reaction (using 1M stock of MgOAc instead of 10µM to adjust molarity)

  • first one was not (falsely) adjusted (= 11mM)–> visible maximum
  • –> will be repeated (see 12.08.)

Results:

        • gel run for 1,5 h at 0,03 A but looked slightly strange –> SDS sample buffer might be invested with foreign proteins
        • in the biginning gel rumn very slow only on centimeter in an hour. Probably due to the missing second balance glass plate. Glass plate was attached and the run started again
        • blotting at 0,14A for 1,5 h with the small blotting apperature
          • whole marker was on the membrane and a little bit on the Whatman behind –> no further increase of Ampere

    • 15 ul of the samples were put onto the blot. However pipetting was quite difficult due to solid components in the sample and inhomogenity ( perhaps next time the use of more sample is necessary. Also shering of samples with thin pipette could be tried)
    • gel run for ca 2 h at 0,02 A
    • Blotting of Gel for 1,5 h at 0,12 A
