Engelward PNAS 2006.png

Schedule Fall 2016        Announcements        Assignments        Homework        Communication
       1. Measuring Genomic Instability        2. Manipulating Metabolism        3. Engineering Biomaterials              

M2D1

Per group, aliquot

  • 30 μL nuclease-free water
  • 5 μL pdCas9 (ideally at 500 ng/μL)

On front bench, have

  • restriction enzymes in -20 °C block
  • NEB buffers
  • list of 20.109-owned restriction enzymes

Fa16: all done by 5pm

M2D2

Per group,

  • pour 1/2 agarose gel (only 5 lanes needed)
  • thaw 4 samples of confirmation digests
  • aliquot 10 μL of 6X loading buffer
  • thaw 20 μL of 1 kb ladder

Call IDT to request expedited FedEx shipping of gRNA oligos.

Fa16: all done by 4:30pm Should schedule BE Comm Lab workshop on Journal Club on this day.

M2D3

On ice,

  • 1.2 mL aliquots of nuclease-free water
  • reverse primer at 100 μM
  • psgRNA template
  • HotStart Master Mix
  • -20 °C block for PCR tubes
  • strip of PCR tubes with colors (+1 for control)
  • SDM control primer mix
  • SDM control plasmid

Also on front bench,

  • filtered tips
  • gRNA forward primers received from IDT

The thermocycling program is called NEBSDM.

Later, on ice

  • KLD reaction buffer
  • KLD enzyme mix
  • NEB5α cells (1 per group + 1 for control)
  • LB+Amp plates (1 per group + 1 for control)

M2D5

The day before lab (8pm), inoculate 2 colonies per team.

Aliquot, per team:

  • 2x 5 mL cultures of NEB5α transformed with pgRNA and cultured in LB+Amp
  • ice bucket
  • 15 mL conical tube, empty, labeled 'Qiagen waste'
  • P1 (600 μL)
  • P2 (600 μL)
  • P3 (800 μL)
  • PB(1100 μL)
  • PE (1600 μL) of buffer PE
  • water pH 8.0 for elution (50 μL)
  • 2 mini-prep columns
  • MG1655 competent cells (100 μL), on ice late in the afternoon
  • SOC (1 mL)
  • 2 LB agar plates +Amp+Cam
  • burner + lighter + spreader + jar of ethanol

On front bench,

  • students plates of pgRNA
  • water bath at 42 °C
  • sequencing F and R primers at 5 μM
  • nuclease-free water
  • PCR tube strips for sequencing

M2D7

Aliquot, per team:

  • LB broth (45 mL)
  • chloramphenicol (50 μL, from stock in -20 °C freezer)
  • ampicillin (50 μL, from stock in 4 °C deli fridge)
