dNTP diluted 1/2
Primers diluted 1/10 : oligo 5: 557µL

Gblock nuclease B.subtilis in plasmid pBADMoclo24 (Kim et Natacha)
Colony PCR of transformed cells DH5alpha with first Golden gate of pBADMoClo_NucleaseB. We used the protocol called "Colony PCR".
PCR programm (3O cycles):
94°C 5min
94°C 30sec
60°C 30sec
72°C 1min/kb
72°C 10min

Each colony was cultured in liquid and solid LB with 100µg/mL Amp and 0.2% glucose
Results of transformation of July the 8th : lots of single colonies for transformed cells with first golden gate reaction for B.subtilis but none with the new one. Kim and Natacha didn't run a PCR with just the golden gate reaction so we don't know if it is the transformation or if it is the golden gate reaction which didn't work. But other transformations worked so might be the golden gate reaction which didn't.

gblock Nuclease B.subtilis in plasmid pBAD24MoClo (Kim-Natacha-Clara)
Plasmid DNA extraction with NucleoSpin® Plasmid / Plasmid (NoLid) kit of DH5alpha pBAD moClo B.subtilis clone 1, 3, 5 and 6 of the first golden gat reaction.
All DNAs concentrations were measured with nanodrop.
Sent to sequencing DH5alpha pBAD moClo B.subtilis clone 1 and 6.
If sequencing is good, we have to transforme keïo cells with pBAD24 moClo Rdrp clone 1 & 4 and pBAD24 moClo T7 clone 2 & 1.

gblock in plasmid pBAD24MoClo (Clara)
Sequencing result of pBADMoClo B.subtilis nuclease is not good because no priming (apparently other people got problems too so might be a problem from the company).
So digestion with ECORV of all clones containing pBADMoClo b. subtilis nuclease :- 10µL of plasmid
- 2µL buffer R
- 1µL ECORV
- 7µL H2O

Colonies PCR DH5alpha+pBAD24-B. sub
From stripes of DH5alpha pBAD24-B. sub 05/07, collect small number of bacteria and place them into 10µL of water.
Then add : - 2,5µL green taq buffer
-1µL dNTP 5mM
-1µL primer 5
-1µL primer 6
-0,15µL Taq polymerase
-Qsp H2O for 25µL final
PCR program : 94°C 5 min
94°C 30 sec
62°C 30 sec repeat these steps 30 times
72°C 1min30
72°C 2min
PCR products are run on an electrophoresis agarose gel 1%.
The clone 1', 3', 5' and 6' posses a unique band at the correct lenght (1,600 bp).
The clone 1' and 3' are incubated in 15mL LB amp glu at 37°C O/N for miniprep 07/16.

Microscopy Keio MoClo : Hugues
AIM: As a control for the characterization of all our nucleases
Culture and OD600
From a over night bacterial culture of Keio pBAD24 MoClo in LB-amp-glu (0,2%), dilute in 10mL LB-amp to get an OD600=0,1
Incubate at 37°C to obtain an OD600=0,4
Add 100µL arabinose 20% in the liquid culture (i. e. 0,2% arabinose final)
Incubate 5 min at 37°C with agitation
Preparation of slides for microscopy
Stick tape on slides in order to form a delimited area on the slide
Pour 200µL solid LB-amp-ara (0,2%)
Sandwich the gelose with annother slide. After dry out, remove the top-slide
Place 1µL of arabinose-inducuced-bacteria (see protocol "Culture and OD600") on the solid gelose
Dry the drop then place the cover glass above the drop
Put 1 drop of oil on the cover glass then orientate the cover glass toward the ground
Take picture every 20min for 6 hours (do it manualy because the focus doesn't work properly)

Heatshock plasmid transformation of pBAD24_B.sub in KeioZ1F' : Arnaud
Use of protocol "Heatshock plasmid transformation" in KeioZ1F' 200µL. Warning Heatshock at 42°C for 1 min has been done two times because of user mistake. Bacteria are then spread on 3 plates LB+amp+glu (50 µL, 100 µL, Remaining)
Result : there wasn't any transmormant, must do to the 2nd heatshock
