64. Title: 03102019- III pBK549 transformation on ylic133 for further sanity check in SATAY :blush: :punch:#

64.1. Date#

03102019-09102019

64.2. 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.

64.3. 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

    • Digestion testing by EcoRv, PvuII and both:

  • 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)

64.4. Results :smile:#

64.5. 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.

64.6. Next steps#

  • Sanity check in -ade and -ura plates .
