No Sidebar - Escape Velocity by HTML5 UP

Lab book

We splitted our labbook into the following parts:



Friday, 07/21/17

- took pSB4A5 backbone out of DNA distribution Kit and transformed into E.coli
(rest from Kit was put in -20 °C)

Tuesday, 07/25/17

- Inoculated LB media with psB4A5

Wednesday, 07/26/17

- Miniprep with Promega “Plus SV Miniprep DNA Purification System”
- 2 approaches with psB4A5
- final concentration:
- approach 1: 30 ng/µl
- approach 2: 40 ng/µl


Thursday, 08/10/17

- glycerol stock (30%) of IG_C_P1_G (pSB4A5)
- prepared 10 mL preculture with pdCas9-Bacteria E.coli from plate from Fabian for Miniprep


Monday, 08/14/17

- primer resuspended to 100 uM (except Q8):

primer volume in µl
Q5 354
Q6 957
Q7 749
Q8 657 (83,1 uM)
Q15 956
Q16 1455
Q17 1693
Q18 1440


- diluted all primers to 10 uM in separate aliquotes
- prepareed 3 separate PCRs with primer pairs:
Q5/Q8 (Eppi A), Q6/Q7 (Eppi B), Q15/Q16 (Eppi c)
- pipetting scheme:
Q5 2X MasterMix: 5 µL
10 uM Primer: each 0,5 µL
Template: 1 µL of 1:100 diluted Miniprep (about 0,5 ng)
ddH2O: 3 µL
total: 10 µL
- cycling conditions (prog01 in Epepndorf Mastercycler nexus gradient (Torsten):

temperature time in sec
98 °C 30
98 °C 10
64 °C 20
72 °C 110
72 °C 120


- after PCR: gel electrophoresis as follows:
- 2.5 µL DNA + 2µL Loading Dye + 7.5 µL (total 12 µL)
- ran gel at 120 V for 40 minutes
gel picture:

- order of pockets: ABC, A and B are correct size, C did not work well, there is a band at the desired result and one at the unopened plasmid (and several other stuff) so PCR has to be done again
- dCas9 fragments look good and can be worked with tomorrow


Tuesday, 08/15/17

1. DpnI digestion of dCas9 fragments A + B

component volume in µl
DpnI 2,6
DNA 6,5
cutsmart-Buffer 5,0
H2O 35,9
final volume 50


- Duration: 1 hour

IMPORTANT: Fabian told me you can just add about 1 µL DpnI to the reaction-mix

2. Gel run of dCas9 A + B
- let it run on gel for purification
- 140 V a 40 min
- cut out was done by Natalie and Pauline

3. Linearization PCR of psB4A5 (second atempt) via gradient PCR
- made new PCR using Q15/Q16 primers and psB4A5 plasmid fpr linearization
- used 3 different DNA concentrations and 3 different annealing temperatures (9 reactions total)


component 1 reaction:
volume in µl
10 reaction MM:
volume in µl
HiQ 5 50
primer 1,25 12,5
DNA variable (1 µl) variable
H2O 17,5 175
final volume 25 250


- annealing temperatures: A = 60°C/B = 64,5°C/C = 68°C
- DNA concentrations: 0,1 = 1:1000 / 1 = 1:100 / 10 = 1:10
Scheme:

0,1 A 0,1 B 0,1 C
1 A 1 B 1 C
10 A 10 B 10 C


Wednesday, 08/16/17

1. Gel run of psB4A5 gradient PCR (A,B,C,0.1,1,10)
- run at 120 V a 40 min -> only 2 bands at well 1A
- run at 120 V another 30 min -> lost DNA from gel
- 1A (60°C/1:100 DNA) might have worked so I did a PCR purification for this one
2. Gel purification of dCAs9 A + B fragments and 1A-psB4A5 linearized plasmid
- used Promega PCR/Gel purification kit: final concentration pSB4A5 18 ng/µL
https://www.promega.de/resources/protocols/technical-bulletins/101/wizard-sv-gel-and-pcr-cleanup-system-protocol/
IMPORTANT: We use AE-buffer for elution in the last step (50 µL) instead of water!
3. Fusion PCR of dCAs9 fragments A + B
- Primer used: Q5 + Q6


component volume in µl
Q5-MM 12,5
DNA 2(1 pro fragment)
H2O 10,5
final volume 25


IMPORTANT: Fusion PCR done like team munich!
https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2014/c/c9/LMU_Munich14_FusionPCR.pdf
- first made a PCR mix of 25 µL without primers
- then run mix in thermocycler with programm (fusion pcr)
- in the middle there is a hold step in the programm
- you then add the primers mixed with buffer (5 µL total volume) for an endvolume of 30 µL
- IG_C_Q19/20 and Q24 resuspended auf 100 µM and diluted to 10 µM


Thursday, 08/17/17

1. dCas9:
- DpnI- digested Fusion-PCR product (1 µL in PCR-tube for 1h at 37 °C)
- ran 0,7 % agarose gel --> negative result
- gel picture:



- possible reasons: not enough DNA in PCRPCR cleanup was done and not gel extraction, wrong PCR protocol
- PCR with Q5-Q8 was done again (see above for protocol)
- no test gel but preperative gel and gel extraction with Promega protocol
- dCas9-A fragment: 2,8 ng/µL, dCas9-B fragment: 3,3 ng/µL
- not enough DNA again for PCR, tomorrow run PCR with 50 µL reaction tomorrow!


2. pSB4A5:
DpnI-digestion:
- 1 µl added to the PCR mix and incubated 1 h at 37 °C
- SLiCE reaction of pSB4A5 with IAAM-MS2 + IAAH-PP7:
because of to low DNA concentration we needed to increase the concentration by drying the DNA
- for this reaction we take:
2,8 µl backbone (50 ng, 3395 bp, 18 ng/µl)
+ 32,2 µl IAAM-MS2 (1:10 ratio, 2188 bp, 10 ng/µl)
+ 26,4 µl IAAH-PP7 (1:10 ratio, 1790 bp, 10 ng/µl)
all in one eppi + 38,6 µl ddwater to get 100 µl
to the 100 µl we added:
+ 1/10 of original volume (100µl) 3 M Sodium acetate, pH 5,2 --> 10 µl
+ 2 x original volume 100% ethanol (needs to be cooled down for 20 min at -20°C) --> 200 µl
mix thorougly
- put 30 min to -20 °C (in this time cool down centrifuge to 4 °C)
- centrifuge 10 min with maiximal speed at 4 °C
- discard supernatant with a pipette, BE CAREFUL!!!, pellet is maybe (in most cases, because we don't have much DNA) nit visible, pay attenteion on the orinetation of the Eppis in the centrifuge (lids to the outside) and go with the pipette onto this side of the Eppi, where the pellet DON'T is, DON'T TOUCH THE PELLET!!!
- add 300 µl 70 % ethanol (needs to be cooled down for at least 20 min at -20 °C)
- centrifuge 10 min with maiximal speed at 4 °C
- again CAREFULLY discard supernatant with a pipette
- make a short spin 10-30 sec (Short-Button) and take carefully additional supernatant with a pipette
- put Eppi open lid for 10 min to 37 °C
- add SLiCE reaction directly to this Eppi (NO RESUSPENSION BEFORE)
SLiCE reaction:
Eppi with dried backbone, IAAM-MS2 and IAAH-PP7
+ 1 µl 10 x SLiCE buffer
+ 1 µl PPY SLiCE extract
+ 8 µl ddwater
--> 10 µl SLiCE reaction
- incubate 1 h at 37°C, no shaking (flip a few times to the Eppi to resuspend the DNA)
- Transformation in E.coli clls with all the 10 µl SLiCE reaction in the same Eppi like the transformation protocol, no changes from protocol
- 200 µl to Ampicillin-LB-agar plates
- and centrifuge rest of the culture, discard most of the supernatant, resuspend in the rest supernatant and put this resuspenden rest also to an Ampicillin-LB-agar plate
- plates over night to 37 °C
4. for tomorrow:
Colony-PCR with the SLiCE plate and at the same time preparation of the Slakowski-Assay plate

Friday, 08/18/17

- no colonies on pSB4A5 plate
- did q5-Q8 PCr again with 50 uL reaction following protocol (5 uL of 1:100 diluted miniprep as template)
used Q5678 protocol in Torsten Thermocycler
- gel extraction:
fragment A: 3,7 ng/uL
fragment b: 31,4 ng/uL
- PCR Q5/Q8 again for fragment A with gradient PCR
- for Monday: program in Torsten: "Q58":
- use 4 different wells/temperatures:
- well 1: 60°C; 5: 62,5°C; 7:64,5 °C; 9: 66,5°C
- elongation temperature reduced to 30 sec
- make 50 uL reaction again,
afterwards: gel extraction and fusion PCR of dCas-A and dCas9-B
ask Fabian for better Fusion-PCR cycler program (the one from last time was unnecessarily long according to Fabian)

- PP7 and MS2 at 71 °C, LacI at 58 °C
- put into -20 and tomorrow test gel run


Thursday, 08/24/17

- Fusion PCR: purifaction gel electrophoresis
- gel electrophoresis:
- 50 µl DNA
- 10 µl Loading Dye
- 0,7 % Agarose gel
- 6,6kb fragment
- 1h with 80 V
- purifaction with the Promega Purification Kit
- final concentration: 45,7 ng/µL

- test gel of PCR with IDT fragments of yesterday:
IAAH-PP7 - IAAM-MS2 - LacI - TaC1 - TaC2 - TaC3 - Ddx4-YFP


- only IAAH-PP7 and TaC3 bands are okay
- gel purification: PP7: 40,7 ng/µL
- TaC3: 27,3 ng/µL
- second PCR with other fragments, used three different temperatures for annealling for every fragment:


fragment 1st TM (well) 2nd TM 3rd TM
MS2 68,3 (9) 69,7 (10) 71 (12)
LacI 56 (1) 57,3 (3) 60,7 (5)
TaC1 66,3 (8) 68,3 (9) 69,7 (10)
TaC2 68,3 (9) 69,7 (10) 71 (12)
YFP 62,6 (6) 64,4 (7) 66,3 (8)


- Tip from Fabian: next time more gradient Temperature distance!
- fragments from left to right (Temperatures are alaso from left to right) : MS2, LacI, TaC1, TaC2, YFP
2017-08-24 15hr 44min-1.jpg
- MS2 / 9 band correct
- YFP / 6 and 7 bands are correct
- LacI no bands, TaC1 almost no bands, TaC2 bands incorrect
- gel run of MS2/9 and YFP/ 6,7 and put cut gel slices in the fridge for extraction tomorrow
- test gel of 4 uL (10 ng/uL) of IDT-fragments: LacI, TaC1, TaC2 with 6 uL H2O und 2 uL Dye to see if there's something wrong with the IDT fragments


- TaC1 and YFP show correct bands
- TaC2 correct and wrong band (maybe low concentration?) --> Nanodrop result: 11,4 ng/uL; problem that DNA concentration of desired
DNA is too low for restriction?


Friday, 08/25/17

- Gel and PCR clean up (Promega kit)
- MS2: 240mg gel; final concentration: 16,6 ng/µL
- YEP 6: 250mg gel; final concentration: 19,6 ng/µL

Trafo
https://www.neb.com/protocols/2015/02/17/nebuilder-hifi-dna-assembly-chemical-transformation-protocol-e2621
- Gibbson Assembly (5 µl) + competen cells (C2987)
- plate cells: 100µl and 200µl


Monday, 08/28/17

- Gibson Assembly worked, we have colonies but they are useless (see below)
- colony PCR following the protocol (beware that the protocol has been updated in the lab),
annealing Temperature: 52°C wiht Q24 and Q18 and 10 colonies
- negative control: IG_C_P1 miniprep
- negative/Gibson 1-10 and TaC3
- negative results for all reactions except the last onw which is just the gel purified TaC3
- excpept it isnt because the band cleearlyc shwows a sifferent size and is more likely to be IAAAH-PP7 (a suspicion of Sarah who wasn't sure if the tubes were swapped) which explains the negative results in the Gibson assembly
- Gibson assembly was done again withcorrect fragments:
- pSB4A5 miniprep: 2,75 uL (18 ng/µL)
- IAAM-MS2 6,1 uL (10,6 ng/µL)
- IAAH-PP7 1,9 uL (27,3 ng/µL)
- MasterMix 10,77 µL (fragments to Mastermix : 1:1)
- two Trafos were done with already used competent cells and new competent cells (always use the cells we got from - the Gibson Kit for Gibson assembly!) and plated with 200 uL and centrifuged
- repeated PCR to amplify IDT-fragments with TaC1, TaC2 and LacI (always as 50 uL reactions):
- 3 different concentrations and temperatures for each fragment:


temperature in °C/ concentration 0,1 ng 1 ng 10 ng
60 1 4 7
68 3 6 9


from left to right: Marker- TaC1/ 1-9 - one empty lane - TaC2/1-4 - Marker Marker - TaC2/5-9 - LacI/ 1-9 (but not 5!) - Marker - 6LacI/5
low concentrations worked best, results at Tac1/1, TaC2/3 and LacI/1 were best and gel purified
- Tac1: 5,8 ng/µL
- Tac2: 9,2 ng/µL
- LacI: 12,9 ng/µL


Tuesday, 08/29/17

Colony-PCR of P4 with Q24 and Q18 (see protocol and note the changes in the folder!)
- 10 colonies
- masterplate
- did a test gel (1 % Agarose) (actualy did two beacuse of missing marker in the first one, see lab book)
- gel picture shows: all fragments have expected length
- no miniprep culturs inoculated because colonies were too small -> To do tomorrow
Gibbson assembly of P5 (IAA-RBP in pSB4A5) (see online protocol from NEB) Transformation of P5 into Jm109
- for tomorrow: inoculate miniprep cultures of positive clones on masterplate for P4, Colony-PCR and test gel for P5


Wednesday, 08/30/17

Colony PCR of P5 (low copy plasmid, see protocol) with Q19 and Q20
- gel picture: all clones okay
- inoculated three precultures for minipreps tomorrow (10 ml, 37 °C shaker)
- also inoculated three precultures of P4 for miniprep tomorrow (10 ml, 37 °C shaker)


Thursday, 08/31/17

- Miniprep of IG_C_P4 and P5 (three colonies each)

component concentration in ng/µl
P4-2 370,8
P4-4 346,1
P4-8 287,5
P5-1 153,7
P5-3 137,9
P5-8 124,7


- Eppis named like this: "IG_C_P4_2_Mini"
- test digests:
P4:


colony 2 4 8
200 ng Plasmid 0,5 µL 0,6 µl 0,7 µl
NotI-HF 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl
10 x cutSmart buffer 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl

200 ng Plasmid 1,3 µL 1,5 µl 1,6 µl
EcoRI-HF 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl
10 x cutSmart buffer 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl
ddH2O 6,7 µl 6,5 µl 6,4 µl
total volume 10 µl 10 µl 10 µl


test digest in general:

colony 1 3 8
200 ng Plasmid 1,3 µL 1,5 µl 1,6 µl
SpeI 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl
HindIII-HF 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl
10 x cutSmart buffer 1 µl 1 µl 1 µl
ddH2O 5,7 µl 5,5 µl 5,4 µl
total volume 10 µl 10 µl 10 µl


we used HindIII-HF and NotI-HF from the group but bought one NotI-HF again for them ran digests on 0,7 % gel:


- P5 looks good on both digests,
- P4 only one band but probably just two bands which semm ike one so it should be fine
- glycerol stock was put in -80 °C of P4 2,4 and 8 and P5 1 and P5 3


Friday, 09/01/17

- diluted P4 / 2,4,8 and P5/ 1,3 to 100 ng/µl and Q21/q22 to 5 µM

1. Redo of Gibson Assembly of IAAM-MS2 + IAAH-PP7 into psB4A5
- Gibson assembly (done with same ratios like before)
- pSB4A5 miniprep: 2,75 µL (18 ng/µL)
- IAAM-MS2 6,1 µL (10,6 ng/µL)
- IAAH-PP7 0,1 µL (409,9 ng/µL) <- only with different volume due to higher concentration (amplified DNA from 7.9)
- MasterMix 10,77 µL (fragments to Mastermix : 1:1)
- Trafo of Gibson Assembly (P4 in C2987)
- https://www.neb.com/protocols/2015/02/17/nebuilder-hifi-dna-assembly-chemical-transformation-protocol-e2621

- plate cells (Carb): 100 µl and 200 µl
2. Miniprep of clone 2 (see page 50 in labbook) with psB4A5: IAAM-MS2+IAAH-PP7
- used Promega miniprep kit + protocol
- concentration: 380,8 ng/µl
- made glycerol stock using 700 µl cells + 700 µl Glycerol 80 %
- Test digest of P4 (miniprep) with
- 0,53 µl DNA (miniprep)

- 1 µl CutSmart
- 7,7 µl ddH2O
- Gel picture see lab book

Monday, 09/11/17

- pictures fare from the same gel, left looks a bit promising but with an extra band (maybe uncut plasmid?), right is with more lighting and only one band
- made colony PCR of Gibson plates from yesterday -> all 16 clones negative,
- Salkwoski was still prepared and has to be done tomorrow
- made restriction digest like yesterday to check if the correct insert is there and digest Friday was just bad but it was also negative
- Gibson assembly was done again:


component volume in µl
IG_c_P1 linearized (18 ng/µL) 2,75
IAAM-MS2 (10,6 ng/µL) 6,1
IAAH-PP7 (19,8 ng/µL) 2,7
11,55


- IaaM from the 7.9. was empty!
- IAAH-PP7 was purified (it was not purified and the unpurified was used for last Gibson so there is probably the mistake)
- incubated gibson for 40 minutes at 50°C and plated on Amp
- plated with 4 g/L TrP which was done today, too
