# Title: 03102019- III pBK549 transformation on ylic133 for further sanity check in SATAY 😊 👊

# Date

03102019-09102019

# Objective

To ensure that the constructed strain is able to pass the Satay sanity check, and then I can continue with the further steps, like mating with yEK7a.

# Method

  • @14:00 Incubation form glycerol stocks of ylic133_1, ylic133_4,ylic133_5 and Byk832 in new YPD+6xADE media.
  • New pBK549 plasmid extraction from bacteria. Miniprep and enzyme restriction assay in the same day of transformation. Look here for the restriction protocol
  • 04102019 @9:15 OD measurements
OD-10X dilution Titer Dilution factor to OD=0.5 Time
ylic133_1 0.368 3.68 7.76X @9:15
ylic133_5 0.478 4.78 9.56X @9:15
Byk832 0.057 0.57 1,14X @9:15
  • Miniprep to extract pBK549
    • concentration: 46,7 ng/ul total volume 240 uL
    • Digestion testing by EcoRv, PvuII and both:
  • @13:00 OD measurements 10x dilution
OD-10X dilution Titer Ready to transform Time
ylic133_1 0.255 2.5 Yes @9:15
ylic133_5 0.198 1.98 Yes @9:15
Byk832 0.385 3.8 Yes @9:15
  • 3ul plasmid (46,7ng/ul) implies 140ng plasmid.
  • I prepare another stock of 1M of LiAc.
  • Plating 150ul cells+50ul MiliQ and 30ul cells+170ul MiliQ in -URA+6xADE and 20ul cells +180ul MiliQ in YPD (positive control)

# Results 😄

# Conclusion

  • 09102019 This time the transformation really works , giving plenty of colonies in all the strains. I suspected that what made the big difference is the change of the LiAc.
  • The negative control is good, so there is no growth in any of the plates.

# Next steps

  • Sanity check in -ade and -ura plates .
