Our research work

We are describing our research work. Below you can find the protocols we used.

Protocols

1. Aim

2. Preparation of starting plasmids

1. Preparation restriction of components

1. Restriction using biobrick assembly enzymes
2. This preparation step is needed to create sticky ends on the cassettes
3. This step is only performed once
4. Restriction with EcoRI and PstI (see restriction protocol) for all components

2. Ligation of cassettes into plasmids

1. Ligation using T4-ligase (see ligation protocol)

plasmid	cassettes
psB1C3	1	2	3
psB1A3	1	2	3
psB1K3	1	2	3

3. Final preparation steps

1. Transformation of 9 different combinations into competent cells (see transformation protocol)
2. Selection with corresponding antibiotics

4. Next day

1. Colony pcr and gel run to check for sizes of cassettes
2. Miniprep and check concentration via nanodrop
3. Many aliquots needed (small volume because thawing time) for future reactions!

3. 3A-assembly

1. Good to know

1. The 3-A-assembly will be used to add more and more cassettes in a row
2. It is important to only combine cassettes with the same number (1, 2 and 3 have varying spacer length)
3. We will add cassettes and test frequently for viability to determine the maximum target-sequence length
4. We want to combine about five cassettes

2. Assembly scheme

1. In each assembly cycle, there will be two cassettes (same number/length) added to one linearized plasmid
2. In the first step, we can either just use the prepared plasmid with cassettes already inserted or use an empty one, because the part in between will be cut out anyway
3. The be able to select for plasmid with higher cassette content the resistances will cycle
4. The resistance cycle (for plasmids) is K C A
5. For the inserts, the resistance signals from which plasmid they will be cut
6. The plasmids resistance determines the selection antibiotics for that step!

3. Legend

CX – Chloramphenicol (Insert/Plasmid) from step X
AX – Ampicillin (Insert/Plasmid) from step X
KX – Kanamycin (Insert/Plasmid) from step X
E – EcoRI
S – SpeI
X – XbaI
P – PstI

Insert 1 E+S	Insert 2 X+P	Plasmid E+P
C1	A1	K1
A2	K1	C2
K3	C2	A3
C4	A3	K4

4. Starting a cycle

1. Insert 1 is cut out of plasmid C1/Insert 2 is cut out of plasmid A1 and plamsid K1 is linearized
2. Insert 1 and 2 are ligated into plasmid K1
3. Insert 1 is cut out of plasmid A2/Insert 2 (here the fusion from Insert 1+2 from the first cycle) is cut out of K1 and plasmid C2 is linearized
4. Insert 1 and 2 are ligated into plasmid C2
5. With insert 1 coming from K3 and insert 2 from C2 (fusion) the steps will repeated until maximum number of inserts is reached
6. The assembly needs to be done for all 3 cassettes simultaneously after each step
7. Transformation of ligation into competent cells (see transformation protocol)
8. Selection with corresponding antibiotics

5. Next day

1. Colony pcr and gel run to check for sizes of cassettes
2. Miniprep and check concentration via nanodrop

1. Aim

1. Is the insert DNA in the plasmid present or absent?

2. Much easier than to isolate and purify the vector

2. Good to know before the start

1. Take typical measures to prevent PCR cross over contamination, keep your bench clean, wear gloves, use sterile tubes and filter pipet tips
2. Include a no-template control and positive control in parallel.
3. Thaw and keep reagents on ice
4. Mix well before use.
5. The longer the amplicon, the longer the extension time: Use 15 sec/kb extension.
6. Use 90 sec extension for multiplexing
7. Run an annealing temperature gradient from 55 °C to 65 °C to choose the best specificity conditions. Do not use fast cycling for multiplexing.
8. ALLin™ Red Taq Mastermix, 2X is premixed with red dye and density reagents for direct loading on the gels after the PCR.In a 2% agarose TAE gel the dye migrates with ~350 bp DNA, in 1% agarose TAE gel with ~600 bp DNA fragments

3. Are you working with A. E.coli or B.yeast?

A.step by step for E.coli:

1. Resuspend colonies

2. Prepare masterplate

3. Prepare a PCR master mix (always prepare at least 10 % more)

4. Mix gently, avoid bubbles.

8. Close tube

9. Perform the PCR using Thermocycler as follow:

Initial denaturation	1 cycle	95°C	60s
Denaturation	30-40 cycles	95°C	15s
Annealing	30-40 cycles	55-65°C	15s
Extension	30-40 cycles	72°C	15-90s (15 sec per 1 kb)

10. Store probes for short time on ice, for long at -20°C

11. Load probes on the agarose gel e.g. 10 μl (so in case you have enough left for another round).

B. Step by step for yeast:

1. If resuspended colonies are to be used: pipette 50 μl of a 0.02 M NaOH solution into each of a set of appropriately labelled PCR tubes or wells of a PCR plate. Using sterile pipette tips or toothpicks, transfer transformants to individual tubes/wells. The amount of cells resuspended must just be visible. Resuspend cells by pipetting or vortexing and incubate for ≥ 5 min at 37 °C.
2. If overnight cultures are to be used: pipette 40 μl of a 0.01 M NaOH solution into each of a set of appropriately labelled PCR tubes or wells of a PCR plate.

1. What is it ?

1. Standard lab procedure for separating DNA by size (e.g., length in base pairs) for visualization and purification
2. Uses an electrical field to move the negatively charged DNA through an agarose gel matrix toward a positive electrode
3. Shorter DNA fragments migrate through the gel more quickly than longer ones

2. Why are we doing it ?

1. to determine the approximate length of a DNA fragment by running it on an agarose gel alongside a DNA ladder (a collection of DNA fragments of known lengths)

3. Protocol

1. Pouring a Standard 1% Agarose Gel:

1. Measure 1g agarose and and mix it with 100ml of TBE in a microwaveable flask.
Note: Agarose gels are commonly used in concentrations of 0.7 % to 2 % depending on the size of bands needed to be separated - Simply adjust the mass of agarose in a given volume to make gels of other agarose concentrations (e.g., 2 g of agarose in 100 mL of TAE will make a 2% gel).
2. Microwave for 1-3 min until the agarose is completely dissolved (but do not overboil the solution, as some of the buffer will evaporate and thus alter the final percentage of agarose in the gel. Many people prefer to microwave in pulses, swirling the flask occasionally as the solution heats up.).
Note: gloves and glasses ! Caution HOT! Be careful stirring, eruptive boiling can occur.
It is a good idea to microwave for 30-45 sec, stop and swirl, and then continue towards a boil. Keep an eye on it as the initial boil has a tendency to boil over. Placing saran wrap over the top of the flask can help with this, but is not necessary if you pay close attention.

4.Pouring of the gel

1. Let agarose solution cool down to about 50°C (about when you can comfortably keep your hand on the flask), about 5 mins.
Note: or cool down in water bath about 30 min
2. Add ethidium bromide (EtBr) to a final concentration of approximately 0.2-0.5 μg/mL (usually about 2-3 μl of lab stock solution per 100 mL gel). EtBr binds to the DNA and allows you to visualize the DNA under ultraviolet (UV) light.
Note: Caution EtBr is a known mutagen. Wear a lab coat, eye protection and gloves when working with this chemical. If you add EtBr to your gel, you will also want to add it to the running buffer when you run the gel.
3. Pour the agarose into a gel tray with the well comb in place.
Note: Think about witch gel tray size you need. (a small one or a big one.)
Pour slowly to avoid bubbles which will disrupt the gel. Any bubbles can be pushed away from the well comb or towards the sides/edges of the gel with a pipette trip.
4. Let the newly poured gel sit at room temperature for 20-30 mins, until it has completely solidified.
if you are in a hurry the gel can also be set more quickly if you place the gel tray at 4 °C earlier so that it is already cold when the gel is poured into it.

5. Loading Samples and Running an Agarose Gel:

1. Add loading buffer to each of your digest samples.
Note: Loading buffer serves two purposes: 1) it provides a visible dye that helps with gel loading and will also allows you to gauge how far the gel has run while you are running your gel; and 2) it contains a high percentage of glycerol, so it increases the density of your DNA sample causing it settle to the bottom of the gel well, instead of diffusing in the buffer.
2. Once solidified, place the agarose gel into the gel box (electrophoresis unit).
3. Fill gel box with 1xTAE (or TBE) until the gel is covered.
4. Carefully load a molecular weight ladder into the first lane of the gel.
Note: When loading the sample in the well, maintain positive pressure on the sample to prevent bubbles or buffer from entering the tip. Place the very top of the tip of the pipette into the buffer just above the well. Very slowly and steadily, push the sample out and watch as the sample fills the well. After all of the sample is unloaded, push the pipettor to the second stop and carefully raising the pipette straight out of the buffer.
5. Carefully load your samples into the additional wells of the gel.
6. Run the gel at 80-150 V until the dye line is approximately 75-80 % of the way down the gel.
Note: Black is negative, red is positive. (The DNA is negatively charged and will run towards the positive electrode.) Always Run to Red.
Note: A typical run time is about 1-1.5 hours, depending on the gel concentration and voltage.
7. Turn OFF power, disconnect the electrodes from the power source, and then carefully remove the gel from the gel box.
8. Using any device that has UV light, visualize your DNA fragments.
Note: When using UV light, protect your skin by wearing safety goggles or a face shield, gloves and a lab coat.
Note: If you will be purifying the DNA for later use, use long-wavelength UV and expose for as little time as possible to minimize damage to the DNA.
Note: The fragments of DNA are usually referred to as ‘bands’ due to their appearance on the gel.

6.Analyzing Your Gel

Using the DNA ladder in the first lane as a guide (the manufacturer's instruction will tell you the size of each band), you can interpret the bands that you get in your sample lanes to determine if the resulting DNA bands that you see are as expected or not. For more details on doing diagnostic digests and how to interpret them please see the Diagnostic Digest page.

7. Purifying DNA from Your Gel

If you are conducting certain procedures, such as molecular cloning, you will need to purify the DNA away from the agarose gel. For instructions on how to do this, visit the Gel Purification page

Protocol for PCR with Q5 High- Fidelity 2x Master Mix

What is the PCR ?
Method to make multiple copies of a the specific DNA-sequence
Please note that protocols with Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase may differ from protocols with other polymerases. Conditions recommended below should be used for optimal performance.
Reaction Setup

1. assemble all reaction components on ice, work on ice while assembling
2. preheat the thermocycler to the denaturation temperature( 98 °C)
3. prior to use all components should be mixed
4. work quickly when transferring the reactions to a thermocycler

Steps

1. Assemble all components on ice for the reaction :

Component	25 μl Reaction	50 μl Reaction	Final Concentration
Q5 High-Fidelity 2X Master Mix	12.5 μl	25 μl	1X
10 μM Forward Primer	1.25 μl	2.5 μl	0.5 μM
10 μM Reverse Primer	1.25 μl	2.5 μl	0.5 μM
Template DNA	variable	variable	< 1,000 ng
Nuclease-Free Water	to 25 μl	to 50 μl

Notes: Two Primers have to be diluted 1:10 !
Notes: Gently mix the reaction. Collect all liquid to the bottom of the tube by a quick spin if necessary. Overlay the sample with mineral oil if using a PCR machine without a heated lid.
2. Transfer PCR tubes to a PCR machine and begin thermocycling.

Steps of PCR

1.Denaturation : double- stranded template DNA is heated to separate it into two single stands
2. Annealing : temperature is lowered to enable the DNA primers to attach to the template DNA
3. Extending : temperature is raised and the new strand of DNA is made by the polymerases

Thermocycling Conditions for a Routine PCR: STEP TEMP TIME Initial Denaturation 98°C 30 seconds 25–35 Cycles 98°C 5–10 seconds *50–72°C 10–30 seconds 72°C 20–30 seconds /kb Final Extension 72°C 2 minutes Hold 4–10°C hold is not necessary 1. Template: Use of high quality, purified DNA templates greatly enhances the success of PCR. Recommended amounts of DNA template for a 50 μl reaction are as follows: DNA AMOUNT DNA Genomic 1 ng–1 μg Plasmid or Viral 1 pg–1 ng 2. Primers: Oligonucleotide primers are generally 20–40 nucleotides in length and ideally have a GC content of 40–60%. Computer programs such as Primer3 can be used to design or analyze primers. The best results are typically seen when using each primer at a final concentration of 0.5 μM in the reaction. 3. Mg ++ and additives: The Q5 High-Fidelity Master Mix contains 2.0 mM Mg ++ when used at a 1X concentration. This is optimal for most PCR products generated with this master mix. 4. Deoxynucleotides: The final concentration of dNTPs is 200 μM of each deoxynucleotide in the 1X Q5 High- Fidelity Master Mix. Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase cannot incorporate dUTP and is not recommended for use with uracil-containing primers or templates. 5. Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase concentration: The concentration of Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase in the Q5 High-Fidelity 2X Master Mix has been optimized for best results under a wide range of conditions. 6. Denaturation: An initial denaturation of 30 seconds at 98°C is sufficient for most amplicons from pure DNA templates. Longer denaturation times can be used (up to 3 minutes) for templates that require it. During thermocycling, the denaturation step should be kept to a minimum. Typically, a 5–10 second denaturation at 98°C is recommended for most templates. 7. Annealing: Optimal annealing temperatures for Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase tend to be higher than for other PCR polymerases. The NEB T m Calculator should be used to determine the annealing temperature when using this enzyme. Typically use a 10–30 second annealing step at 3°C above the T m of the lower T m primer. A temperature gradient can also be used to optimize the annealing temperature for each primer pair. For high T m primer pairs, two-step cycling without a separate annealing step can be used (see note 10). 8. Extension: The recommended extension temperature is 72°C. Extension times are generally 20–30 seconds per kb for complex, genomic samples, but can be reduced to 10 seconds per kb for simple templates (plasmid, E. coli , etc.) or complex templates < 1 kb. Extension time can be increased to 40 seconds per kb for cDNA or long, complex templates, if necessary. A final extension of 2 minutes at 72°C is recommended. 9. Cycle number: Generally, 25–35 cycles yield sufficient product. For genomic amplicons, 30-35 cycles are recommended. 10. 2-step PCR: When primers with annealing temperatures ≥ 72°C are used, a 2-step thermocycling protocol (combining annealing and extension into one step) is possible. 11. Amplification of long products: When amplifying products > 6 kb, it is often helpful to increase the extension time to 40–50 seconds/kb. 12. PCR product: The PCR products generated using Q5 High-Fidelity 2X Master Mix have blunt ends. If cloning is the next step, then blunt-end cloning is recommended. If T/A-cloning is preferred, the DNA should be purified prior to A-addition, as Q5 High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase will degrade any overhangs generated. Addition of an untemplated -dA can be done with Taq DNA Polymerase ( NEB #M0267 ) or Klenow exo – ( NEB #M0212 )

1. What is it?

Transmission of genetic information into competent cells (or plants, algas, mushrooms) (the target organismn)

2. What you need

1.5 mL tube, pipette (50µL), pipette(1000µL), plate
Ice, SOC Medium, competent cells

3. Steps

1. Prechil 1.5 ml tube on ice
2. Thaw a tube competent E. coli cells on ice for 10 minutes.

1. Mix gently
2. Pipette 50 µl of the cells into the 1.5ml tube (Temperatures over 0°C decrease the efficiency of the transformation!)

3. Add 1-5 µl (containing 1 pg-100 ng of plasmid) DNA to the cell mixture.
(as soon as as the last bit of ice in the tube is disappeared!)
4. Flick the tube 4-5 times to mix cells and DNA. (No vortexing!)
5. Place the mixture on ice for 30 minutes. (without mixing!)
(2-fold loss in transformation efficiency for every 10 minutes this step is shortened!)
6. Heat shock at exactly 42°C for exactly 30 seconds. (without mixing!)
(temperature and timing specific to transformation volume and vessel)
7. Place on ice for 5 minutes.
(without mixing!)
8. Pipette 950 µl of room temperature SOC into the mixture.
9. Place at 37°C for 60 minutes and shake vigorously (800 rpm in thermo mix block)
(2-fold loss in transformation efficiency for every 15 minutes this step is shortened)
(SOC gives 2-fold higher transformation efficiency than LB medium)
(incubation with shaking or rotating the tube gives 2-fold higher transformation efficiency than without)
10. Warm selection plates to 37°C
(plates can be used warm or cold, wet or dry…efficiency is nearly the same… warm plates are easier to spread and allow most rapid colony formation.)
11. Mix the cells thoroughly by flicking the tube and inverting.
12. Spread 200 µl onto a selection plate and incubate overnight at 37°C.
13.For low efficiency cloning reactions: spin down the whole transformation mixture and remove the nearly complete supernatant (approx. 900 µl). Resuspend cells in remaining liquid and plate completely.
