    2. Amp resistant
    3. SV40 ori
    4. f1 ori


  • pCX-NNX:
    1. a mock version of pCX-EGFP, contains no EGFP gene

Daily Notes

Day 1

Materials required:

  1. PCR Master Mix (2.5X), ~ 50 μL per group
  2. DI water, prep 100 μL aliquot per group
  3. 5 μL aliquots each of pCX-EGFP, D32N-fwd, D32N-rev
  4. 2 PCR tubes per group

Keep everything cold!

Day of Lab:

  • Lab orientation quiz (not a TA quiz) will be taken today.
  • Remember to freeze PCR products when they are ready.
