Week 1 (Aug 3):
Since we had been having difficulties working with p-lambda-r LacI, we discussed the merits of using a different promoter for our tsPurple constructs.
Week 2 (Aug 7):
After the previous week's discussions, we transformed, inoculated, and miniprepped weak pLac (hoping that a weaker promoter would cause less strain on our cells). In addition, we attempted to ligate the tsPurples into 1C3, however the miniprep concentrations had been too low, so we needed to order more of our parts from IDT.
Week 3 (Aug 14):
We came to the decision that pLac would not work when our construct was fully assembled because it is the same promoter that is on the second part of our construct. Due to this, we moved back to p-lambda-r LacI and inoculated liquid cultures from a pre-existing plate. In addition, we transformed and then miniprepped our tsPurple constructs, however the concentrations of both p-lambda-r LacI and the tsPurples were shockingly low so we decided to run a PCR next week.
Week 4 (Aug 21):
After last week's low miniprep concentrations we ran PCRs of the tsPurples, p-lambda-r LacI, and pLac-ClpXP-CI. We also discussed our lab work with Dr. Styczynski and Monica McNerney to determine potential sources of error.
Week 5 (Aug 28):
After last week's PCR we did a cleanup and nanodropped, which yielded good concentrations. We then sent p-lambda-r LacI and R0011ClpXPCI for sequencing and ligated and transformed our tsPurple constructs.
