We kindly received the following from UBC iGEM distribution kit of 2018:
Constitutive promoter + RBS BBa_K880005 ~70 BP Spring 2018 Distribution Plate 2, Well 3F pSB1C3 (Cm)
BBa_K880005 ~70 BP Spring 2018 Distribution Plate 2, Well 3F pSB1C3 (Cm)
4CL BBa_K801093 ~1700 BP Spring 2018 Distribution Plate 2, Well 17D pSB1C3 (Cm)
RBS+TAL BBa_K1033000 ~1600 Spring 2018 Distribution Plate 4, Well 6C pSB1C3 (Cm)


First, TAL and 4CL with RBS (ribosomal binding site) to combine them:

  • 4CL digest with EcoRI + SpeI
  • TAL digest with EcoRI + Xbal
  • Ligation of both digestion with T4 ligase
  • E. coli transformation via heat shock method
  • Spread on CMB-LB agar plate and incubate at 37 C° overnight
  • PCR and gel electrophoresis to analyze if successful
  • Take positive colonies and place in LB with CMP incubate for 16 hours at 37*C
  • Plasmid obtained

Second, we will take bio bricks of CHS + CHI with RBS (ribosomal binding site):

  • CHS digest with EcoRI and SpeI
  • CHI digest with EcoRI and Xbal
  • Ligation of both digestion with T4 ligase
  • E. coli transformation via heat shock method
  • Spread on CMB-LB agar plate at 37c° overnight
  • PCR and gel electrophoresis to analyze if successful
  • Take positive colonies and place in LB with CMP incubate for 16 hours at 37 C°
  • Plasmid obtained

Third, combine the two plasmids previously prepared:

  • 4CL – TAL digest by EcoRI and SpeI
  • CHS-CHI with EcoRI and Xbal
  • Dephosphorylate CHS-CHI
  • Ligate the two together with T4 ligation
  • Add GFP via digestion and then ligation*
  • E. coli transformation via heat shock method
  • PCR and gel electrophoresis to analyze if successful
  • Take positive colonies and place in LB and CMP incubate for 16 hours at 37 C°
