Biosensor Construction - 13/03/2012

  • Ligation reactions were set up using 3-6 fold access of insert (RecA) and 50 ng of each backbone (roughly).
      • RecA-GFP: 4 µl (~50 ng) GFP-backbone + 1,5 µl (~9 ng) RecA + 2 µl T4 DNA ligase buffer + 11,5 µl water + 1 µl T4 ligase
      • RecA-LacZ: 3 µl (~50 ng) LacZ-backbone + 1,5 µl (~9 ng) RecA + 2 µl T4 DNA ligase buffer + 12 µl water + 1 µl T4 ligase
      • SulA-GFP: 4 µl (~50 ng) GFP-backbone + 1 µl annealed SulA-oligos + 2 µl buffer + 12 µl water + 1 µl T4 ligase
      • SulA-LacZ: 3 µl (~50 ng) LacZ-backbone + 1 µl annealed SulA-oligos + 2 µl buffer + 13 µl water + 1 µl T4 ligase
    • Incubation for 50 min at room temperature
    • Heat inactivation of the T4 ligase at 70 °C for 5 min
  • Afterwards, 10 µl of the ligation mix (chilled) were used for transforming 50 µl of E. coli Top10 chemocompetent cells.
