Extraction of 6 serum samples

cfDNA was extracted from 6 serum samples, of which 3 were spiked with high amounts of Cy5-tagged artificial gene doping EPO DNA as shown in the table. For the extraction the QIAamp DNA Blood Mini Kit protocol was used

Setup of the samples

Sample	Spiked gene doping EPO (ng/ml serum)
Serum 1	0
Serum 2	0
Serum 3	0
Serum 4	60
Serum 5	60
Serum 6	60

Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity DNA Quantification

The 6 extracted samples were quantified using the Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity DNA Assay Kit.

Sample	cfDNA Concentration (ng/μL)
Serum 1	0.378
Serum 2	0.380
Serum 3	0.378
Serum 4 - spiked	0.704
Serum 5 - spiked	0.606
Serum 6 - spiked	0.926

10ul of each spiked extraction was loaded on a gel and imaged with the Typhoon. Next to that also 5, 10 and 15 ng of Cy5-labeled EPO where loaded on the gel as reference. Showing that circa 5 ng of Cy5-labeled EPO was present in the 10ul of the extractions. The total extraction volume was 60ul. So circa 5*6=30 ng of Cy5-labeled EPO was present in the final extraction volumes. Showing a roughly 50% extraction efficency, since 60 ng was spiked per sample. Whereas the difference in cfDNA measurement by using the Qubit would suggest an extraction efficiency of circa 37%. But the three spiked samples were too different from eachother in values, probably due to using a too high concentration of sample for spiking.3

19 tubes were prepared for the EPO PCR, containing the serum extractions of 20/09/2018 as template DNA, two positive controls (linear and BB EPO used for spiking), a negative control with MiliQ as template and a non spiked serum extraction as negative control. The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 40 seconds and an annealing temperature of 65 °C, 30 cycles. After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4°C.

The PCR gave positive bands for all the spiked samples. But also for the negative control, the unspiked serum. After redoing of this PCR for the non spiked and spiked samples using the two EPO primer combinations 072+073 and 074+075 it became clear that there was a contamination in the non spiked serum samples.

To avoid further contaminations the PCR reagents were tested with PCR on contaminations by using different reagents and also the reagents of the extraction kit were tested. There was no contamination in these reagents.

Albumin PCR extractions 20/09 - 2 rounds

The exact same Albumin PCR steps were followed for the extractions of 20/09 as for the extractions of 10/09 that has positive bands for albumin after two rounds of PCR with the same primers. But, doing this with the samples of 20/09 did not give a positive result. No bands were visible.

d-AuNPs Testing: d-AuNPs stability upon salt with(out) ssDNAp

The dAuNPs are tested for their stability under different salt concentrations and the influence of ssDNAp is determined. 20 µL of the d-AuNPs solution, 16 µL MilliQ, 4 µL ssDNAp 1 and 20 µL NaCl solutions (range from 0 mM to 1000 mM) were added in one of the 96 wells on the 96 wells plate. As negative controls, 0 L ssDNAp 1 was added. The plate was incubated at 21 ºC during 10 minutes. The visible absorption spectrum from 450 nm to 650 nm of the solutions was measure and the ratio 620/520 nm was calculated for analysis. The experiment was performed in triplicate. The plate view, relevant absorption spectra and ratio 620/520 nm is shown.

With the new batch of d-AuNPs, the salt concentration variation was performed again. The range of salt concentration is adapted from 0 to 1000 mM NaCl added concentration. Additionally, ssDNAp cause a stabilizing effect as the color change occurs at a higher salt concentration compared to the solutions without ssDNAp.

High Fidelity PCR

To amplify Linker-Tn5 (1508 bp), Tn5 (1452 bp) and Tn5-Linker (1505 bp) coding sequence, high fidelity PCR was done using the amplified Tn5 (in previous PCR reactions) as template DNA and FP005, FP006, FP007 and FP008 as forward and reverse primers. Two times eight 50µL PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol.

To test the effect of DMSO on the PCR performance, one extra tube per amplicon was made that was supplemented with 1.5 μL DMSO (3% final) and 34 μL MilliQ. Additionally, instead of the amplified Tn5 PCR product as template, the original pTXB1-Tn5 plasmid was used as template. Finally, a negative control sample was taken into account that contained no primers and 37.5 μL MilliQ instead.
The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 1 min 30 seconds and an annealing temperature of 60 °C. In order to check the difference between two PCR machines (older one and new one), the tubes were divided over the two thermocyclers. After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4 °C.

As can be seen, the PCR amplification with primers 005 and 006 resulting in Linker-Tn5 were successful. The primers 007 and 008 did not result in any PCR amplicons. Also, the HF buffer supplemented with 3% DMSO resulted in the required amplicon. Remarkably, the old PCR machine did result in thicker and brighter bands DNA. This might be due to the differences in speed when changing temperature.

Restriction

In our laboratory, we experienced some trouble with restriction ligation cloning. Therefore, I aimed for checking the efficiency of all restriction enzymes used in the cloning process. I used the pACYCDuet-1 plasmid and restricted this plasmid with the restriction enzyme XbaI and one of the restriction enzymes EcoRI, KpnI, NotI or FseI. To compare, I restricted the pACYCDuet-1 plasmid only with XbaI and as negative control I used no restriction enzyme to cut pACYCDuet-1.

The following table shows an overview of what fragment(s) were cut with what restriction enzyme(s).

For verification of Tn5-lin insertion in pACYC, primers 003, 012, 029 and 030 were used for sequencing. The sequencing starts from the -20 bp position of fragment Tn5-lin, flanking the promoter of T7 and terminator from T7 of the vector. Sequencing sample was prepared in 1.5 mL tubes for each primer as indicated my Macrogen for specific concentration of plasmid DNA.
Primer sequences can be found at: Primer sequences.

DNA Gel Electrophoresis

The PCR amplicons for construction of the BioBricks Tn5, T7p-Tn5-T7t and Linker into pSB13 were run on a 0.8% agarose gel in TAE buffer. 4 μL was pipetted into each lane. The gel was imaged using a gel documentation system with UV-light.

The gel image shows that the pSB1C3 BioBrick backbone is succesfully amplified. However, when the extra nucleotide is incorporated for non coding sequence BioBrick construction, this resulted not in the desired amplicon. The Tn5 was correctly amplified as well as the T7p-Tn5-T7t expression cassette. The Linker sequence is not correctly amplified as there is no band seen at 143 bp.

Tn5 protein functionality testing: integration assay

Integration assay was performed to test the integration of adapter DNA by Tn5.

The sequence of the adapter used in this assay is shown on table 1.

**Table 1:** Primer sequence to be annealed for the adapter.
Name	Sequence
Upper strand	CTAGCTGTCTCTTATACACATCTATTGGCGAAATGGATGAACTGTTTACCATGC
Lower strand	GCATGGTAAACAGTTCATCCATTTCGCCAATAGATGTGTATAAGAGACAGCTAG

To anneal the two oligos, equamolar amount of each strand is mixed, incubated at 95°C and cooled slowly to room temperature.

Tn5:adapter DNA complex formation
Since this is the first time this experiment was done, the idea is to get the idea of the required amount of adapter needed in the reaction. Therefore 3 different adapter concentrations were added, namely 5µM, 25µM and 50µM. Tn5 was loaded with adapter DNA shown above by following the pipetting scheme shown on Table 2. All samples and reagents were kept on ice during preparation.

**Table 2:** Pipetting scheme for transposome formation.
	5µM reaction (µl)	25µM reaction (µl)	50µM reaction (µl)
Buffer (250mM Tris, pH 7.5)	2.5	2.5	2.5
Tn5 (0.5m/ml)	9	9	9
Adapter	2.5	2.5	2.5
Glycerol	11	11	11
Total	25	25	25

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 45 minutes.

Next, EPO (130ng/µl) was added in two different transposome:EPO volume ratios, namely 1:1 and 3:1 in total volume of 10µM. Finally 12.5mM final MgCl₂ concentration were added. The samples were incubated at 55°C for 10 minutes and stopped by adding final 1% SDS. The integration products were analysed on 2% TAE agarose gel. The gel was stained with sybersafe and imaged with GelDoc system. The resulting gel is shown on figure 1.

Figure 1. 2% TAE Agarose gel of Tn5 integration assay. . Lanes are (1) DNA ladder (100bp-1000bp), (2) 5µM adapter. 1:3 EPO:transposome, (3) 25µM adapter. 1:3 EPO:transposome, (4) 50µM adapter. 1:3 EPO:transposome, (6) 5µM adapter. 1:1 EPO:transposome, (7) 25µM adapter. 1:1 EPO:transposome, (8) 50µM adapter. 1:1 EPO:transposome.

Figure 1 suggested that the staining of the gel was poorly done as bands that was supposed to be present on the first and last lane were not visible. The smear on the rest of the lanes suggested the possible integration of adapter, creating bands of smaller sizes. However, more negative controls should be done to confirm this further.

Tn5:adapter DNA complex formation
From previous result, we learned that:

More negative control should be done to confirm integration
50µM adapter concentration was too high. In this experiment 10µM and 25µM adapter will be used.
50% glycerol might be too high. As the transposase already contain glycerol. No addition glycerol will be added in this experiment

Two different amount of Tn5 was loaded with adapter DNA by following the pipetting scheme shown on Table 2. All samples and reagents were kept on ice during preparation.

**Table 2:** Pipetting scheme for transposome formation.
	No Tn5 (µl)	Low Tn5 (µl)	High Tn5 (µl)

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 45 minutes.

Next, 1µl or 2µl of EPO (130ng/µl) was added to 5µl of each transposome reaction. 1µl of 125mM MgCl₂ was added. Water was added to make final volume of 10µM. The samples were incubated at 55°C for 10 minutes and stopped by adding final 1% SDS. The integration products were analysed on 2% TAE agarose gel. The gel was stained with sybersafe and imaged with GelDoc system. The resulting gel is shown on figure 1.

Tn5 protein functionality testing 3: integration assay

Integration assay was performed to test the integration of adapter DNA by Tn5.

The sequence of the adapter used in this assay is shown on table 1.

**Table 1:** Primer sequence to be annealed for the adapter.
Name	Sequence
Short adapter upper strand	CTAGCTGTCTCTTATACACATCTATTGGCGAAATGGATGAACTGTTTACCATGC
Short adapter lower strand	GCATGGTAAACAGTTCATCCATTTCGCCAATAGATGTGTATAAGAGACAGCTAG
Long adapter upper strand	BBa_K2643011
Long adapter lower strand	BBa_K2643011

From previous result, we learned that:

High amount of glycerol might be needed for integration since previous experiment without glycerol did not result in any integration.
Since finally Tn5 has to function together with dxCas9, we will try to do the reaction in lower temperature, since dxCas9 might be denatured at 55°C.Therefore, in this experiment, the adapter loading and integration experiment will be done in one go, at 37°C for 2 hours.
New adapter will be used, which has ME sequence on both sides to test whether this type of integration (integration without splitting the fragment into two) would work better.

The reaction was done following the pipetting scheme shown on Table 2. All samples and reagents were kept on ice during preparation.

**Table 2:** Pipetting scheme for integration reaction.

From previous result, we learned that:

Integration could be seen with the longer adapter.
More negative control has to be done

In this reaction, we tried reproduce the previous result. Moreover, the effect of Tn5 concentration was tested. Two different Tn5 batches was used, one with 0.5mg/ml concentration, one with 1.5mg/ml concentration.

When Tn5 was added All bands are missing, which could be the result of two possible reasonings. First, our Tn5 protein might be contaminated with DNase, degrading all of our DNA. Second, our Tn5 might be really active that it degrade our DNA to very small pieces that already ran off the gel.

Fusion protein functionality testing: Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay

From the previous test, it was shown that Tn5 by itself were able to load the adapter DNA. Since the Tn5 portion of the fusion protein might behave differently, we did the same experiment with the fusion protein.

The components of the reagents can be found on the protocol. The sequence of the adapter used in this assay is shown on table 1.

The samples were incubate at 23°C for 1 hour and analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. One of the 8µl fusion protein reaction was treated with heat (90^oC) to denature the fusion protein. The resulting gel is either stained with ethidium bromide and imaged with GelDoc system, or directly imaged with Typhoon Imaging System. The resulting gels are shown on figure 1.

Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay

EMSA on both the Tn5 and dxCas9 portion of the fusion showed that these portion individually were able to load adapter or sgRNA and EPO. Following this, integration assay was performed to test the integration of adapter DNA by fusion protein.

The components of the reagents can be found on the protocol. The sequence of the adapter used in this assay is shown on table 1.

Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay

Previous integration assay did not show any integration product on the gel. In this section, we will perform PCR amplication with primer sets that will specifically bind to integration product (primer will bind on the target DNA on one side, and to the adapter on the other side). Since this is the first time this type of experiment was carried out. Different variables were tested:

Two different reaction time were tested, namely 1 and 16 hours to see the effect of reaction duration on integration.
Some of the reaction were stopped with heat or SDS to release DNA from the protein. PCR clean up were carried out right after the integration to get rid of excess SDS before PCR.
For the rest of the reaction, PCR reaction was done directly after integration.
The PCR product was either directly run on the gel, or was first subjected to PCR clean up to get rid of small background DNA fragment before running it on the gel.
Second PCR was done to reamplify the first PCR product, in case very little product was visualised.

The components of the reagents can be found on the protocol. The sequence of the adapter used in this assay is shown on table 1.

**Table 1:** Primer sequence to be annealed for the adapter. Note that 5’ of the upper strand of the adapter has to be phosphorylated for successful integration.

The reagents were pipetted in the following order: Water, 10x functionality buffer, Tn5 or dxCas9-Tn5, and adapter. The samples were incubated at 23°C for 1 hour.

To add appropriate amount of sgRNA, the pipetting scheme on Table 3 was followed. sgRNA J2.1 signifies version 1 of sgRNA targeting juntion 2 of EPO gene:

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes.
Target DNA (EPO cDNA) was added to make final concentration of ~5ng/µl.

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. 10µl of samples were taken to be analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel (Figure 1). Based on Figure 1a, only uncleaved target DNA at 635bp and Donor DNA at 50pb are observed. No integration or high order complexes are visible. On Figure 1b, it showed that after 16h integration time, the target DNA disappears when Fusion protein is present, and significant smearing is observed, indicating functionality of the fusion protein. No specific cleavage bands nor big complex bands are observed.

25µl of samples were taken and deactivated by either only heat or heat + SDS. This was followed by PCR clean up.

To amplify the integration products, PCR was done, both to the cleaned up sample and to the original itegration product. PCR mix and cycle can be found on protocol.
The PCR products were analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. The resulting gels are shown on Figure 2.

Figure 2 shows 2 interesting PCR products observed (lane 2 and 3). Note the 2 PCR products are not observed in the negative controls (lane 4 and 5). No PCR products observed for lane 1-14 (when PCR clean up was done before PCR), most likely due to too little product, which got lost during PCR clean up.

A second PCR was done from the product of the first PCR to amplify the product further. The PCR product wan run on 5% TBE native PAGE shown on Figure 3.

A more intense band are shown after the second PCR cycle. More intense unspecific bands are shown more on the negative control

Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay

From previous reaction, we saw that we were able to amplify some integration product, eventhough it was difficult to see whether or not it's specifically targetted. Therefore, we included more negative control in this reaction. Moreover, it was shown than performing PCR clean up prior to PCR leads no amplification of the integration product, perhaps due to the loss of products that might have been in very little amount during clean up process. Therefore, the following will be implemented in this reaction

The course of integration over time will be observed by stoping the integration reaction at 4 different time points, namely 1 hour, 4 hours, 8 hour, and over night.
PCR clean up procedure will not be implemented prior or post PCR reaction.
Second round PCR will be not implemented.
More negative control will be implemented. This includes reaction without adapter (to see whether there will be integration), without EPO (to see whether there will still be amplification product), without sgRNA (to compare the supposedly targetted integration guided by sgRNA vs non targetted integration), reaction with Tn5 (to compare the supposedly targetted integration by our fusion protien vs random integration by Tn5)

The components of the reagents can be found on the protocol. The sequence of the adapter used in this assay is shown on table 1.

The reagents were pipetted in the following order: Water, 10x functionality buffer, Tn5 or dxCas9-Tn5, and adapter. The samples were incubated at 23°C for 1 hour.

To add appropriate amount of sgRNA, the pipetting scheme on Table 3 was followed. sgRNA J2.1 signifies version 1 of sgRNA targeting juntion 2 of EPO gene:

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes.
Target DNA (EPO cDNA) was added to make final concentration of ~5ng/µl. One negative control was done where water instead of EPO cDNA was added.

The samples were incubated at 37°C. At incubation time = 1h, 4h, 8h, and over night, 2.5 µl of sample were taken from each reaction and was subjected to PCR. PCR mix and cycle can be found on protocol.
The PCR products were analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. The resulting gel is either stained with ethidium bromide and imaged with GelDoc system, or directly imaged with Typhoon Imaging System. The resulting gels are shown on Figure 1.

Figure 1. 5% TBE native PAGE stained by EtBr and imaged by GelDoc system.Integration reaction after 1 hours. Lanes are (1) DNA ladder (100-1000bp), (2) amplified product with fw EPO (3) amplified product with rv EPO, (4) amplified product with fw EPO without sgRNA, (5) amplified product with rv EPO without sgRNA, (6) amplified product with fw EPO without fusion protein, (7) amplified product with rv EPO without fusion protein, (8) amplified product with fw EPO without adapter DNA, (9) amplified product with rv EPO without adapter DNA, (10) amplified product with fw EPO with Tn5, (11) amplified product with rv EPO with Tn5, (12) amplified product with fw EPO without target DNA, (13) amplified product 2 without target DNA.

Figure 1 showed the result of PCR. Hyphothetically, sgRNA would steer the fusion protein to the target EPO (~600bp), specifically to the area close to the 160th bp. When specific integration occurs, target EPO will be split into two fragments of around 280 and 480. PCR reactions were done with primer sets that would amplify these fragments seperately. Lane 2 shows the PCR of the first fragment. A very intense band were indeed present around 230bp, confirming the presence of this integration product. Lane 3 shows the PCR of second fragment. An intense band were also present around 480bp, which also confirmed the presence of the second integration product. On the negative control lanes (without sgRNA or with Tn5), random bands were present, and none of these intense bands shown on lane 2 and 3 were observed here . This confirmed further that targeted integration indeed occur due to our fusion protein that is loaded with sgRNA. The absence of amplification bands on the other negative controls confirmed our result further.

Results of the longer incubation time shows similar result. However, it seems like the specific bands loses intensity with increasing time, suggesting perhaps re-integration events done by excess fusion protein. The higher intensity of unspecific lower bands over time strengthen this analysis further. Figure 2,3 and 4 displays the result of PCR after 4, 8, and overnight incubation time

Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay

From previous reaction, we saw that we were able to amplify the specific integration product that we expected, which, together with the results of the negative control, confirmed the ability of our fusion protein to perform specific integration. In this experiment, we would like to confirm this further by using a longer target DNA. If specific integration indeed occur, one of the new amplified fragment should also get longer by the same increase. Moreover, more sgRNA were tested to check whether other parts of the target EPO is also accessible. The following will therefore be done:

Incubation time of 1 hour will be implemented
3 different EPO fragments were used. The original EPO cDNA, longer EPO with "intron" on the third junction, longer EPO with "intron" on the fourth junction
4 different sgRNA was used, targeting junction 1-4

The reagents were pipetted in the following order: Water, 10x functionality buffer, Tn5 or dxCas9-Tn5, and adapter. The samples were incubated at 23°C for 1 hour.

To add appropriate amount of sgRNA, the pipetting scheme on Table 3 was followed:

**Table 3:** Pipetting scheme for sgRNA loading. sgRNA J2.1 signifies version 1 of sgRNA targeting juntion 2 of EPO gene, etc.
	sgRNA J1.1 (µl)	sgRNA J2.1 (µl)	sgRNA J3.1 (µl)	sgRNA J4.1 (µl)	no sgRNA (µl)	no fusion, J2.1 (µl)	Tn5 (µl)

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes.
Target DNA (EPO cDNA) was added to make final concentration of ~5ng/µl. Three different types of EPO are present. The following reactions were done:

Normal EPO was targetted by sgRNAJ1.1, J2.1, J3.1, J4.1 to see whether all junctions are equality accessible
EPO with intron on Junction 3 was targetted by sgRNA 2.1 to see the increase of the size of the second fragment in comparison to the previous successfull experiments.
EPO with intron on Junction 3 was targetted by J3.1 to see whether EPO can be targetted even though the target site is disrupted by an intron sequence.
EPO with intron on Junction 4 was targetted by J4.1 to see whether EPO can be targetted even though the target site is disrupted by an intron sequence.
As a negative control reaction without sgRNA with normal EPO or EPO with intron on junction 3 or 4 were carried out in parallel

The samples were incubated at 37°C. At incubation time = 30 mins, 2.5 µl of sample from reaction with normal EPO + sgRNA J2.1 were taken along with the necessary negative control reactions to see whether we can decrease off target even more by deacreasing reaction time. These samples were then subjected to PCR based on the protocol. At incubation time=1 hours, 2.5µl sample from each reaction were subjected to PCR. PCR mix and cycle can be found on protocol.
The PCR products were analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. The resulting gel is either stained with ethidium bromide and imaged with GelDoc system. The resulting gels for intergration with sgRNA J1.1 - J4.1 are shown on figure 1-4.

Figure 1. 5% TBE Native PAGE of integration with J1.1. Primer sets 1 will amplify the first integration product. Primer sets 2 will amplify the second integration product. Lanes are (1) DNA ladder, (2) sgRNA J1.1, with primer set 1, (3) sgRNA J1.1, with primer set 2, (4) DNA ladder, (5) no sgRNA with primer set 1, (6) no sgRNA with primer set 2.

Figure 1 showed uncleaved target DNA at 635bp and no integration fragments at 148bp and 548bp are observed (lane 2 and 3). Very little background is observed from ~150bp to ~50bp, probably due to off target events from the fusion protein.

Figure 2. 5% TBE Native PAGE of integration with J2.1. Primer sets 1 will amplify the first integration product. Primer sets 2 will amplify the second integration product. Lanes are (1) DNA ladder, (2) 30 mins, sgRNA J2.1, with primer set 1, with EPO (3) 30 mins, sgRNA J2.1, with primer set 2, with EPO ,(4) 1h, sgRNA J2.1, with primer set 1, with EPO (5) 1h, sgRNA J2.1, with primer set 2, with EPO , (6) 1h, sgRNA J2.1, with primer set 1, with EPO_intron3 (7) 1h, sgRNA J2.1, with primer set 2, with EPO_intron3, (8) DNA ladder, (9) no sgRNA, primer set 1, with EPO (10) no sgRNA, primer set 2, with EPO, (11) no sgRNA, primer set 1, with EPO_intron3 (12) no sgRNA, primer set 2, with EPO_intron3

Figure 2 Uncleaved target DNA at 635bp and 1247bp and 2 integration fragments at 280bp and 480/1068bp are observed (lane 1-7). Note the 2 PCR products are not observed in the negative controls (lane 9-12). Very little background is observed from ~150bp to ~50bp, probably due to off target events from the fusion protein. Note with the intron at junction 3, the integrated fragment is 1063, and the target DNA is 1247, causing the bands to un very close to each other.

Figure 4 snows uncleaved target DNA at 635bp and no integration fragments at 284bp and 448/1053bp are observed (lane 2-5). Very little background is observed from ~150bp to ~50bp, probably due to off target events from the fusion protein. EPO_I3 in late 5 and 9 has an interesting amplification pattern.

Colony PCR

Colony PCR was done to verify the success of EPO and sgRNA for LacZ biobrick. 3 different colonies from each plate were subjected to colony PCR. Two different primer sets were used. Biobrick primers 031 and 032 were used to verify the size of the insert. Primers 038 and 039 were used to verify the presence of EPO fragment within the biobrick backbone. Primers IV003 and IV004 were used to verify the presence of sgRNA for LacZ fragment within the biobrick backbone.

The PCR components and program can be found on the colony PCR protocol page. The PCR products were run on 2% TAE agarose gel shown on Figure 1. Upper lanes of Figure 1 shows amplification of insert with primers that anneal to the biobrick backbone flanking the insert (031 and 032). Lower lanes on Figure 1 shows amplification of insert with internal primers. All and all, the results confirmed insertion of the correct insert length.

DNA Gel Electrophoresis

gDNA PCR samples from 22/8/2018 were run on a 0.8% agarose gel in TAE buffer. 5μL was pipetted into each lane. The gel was imaged using a gel documentation system with UV-light.

This gel shows various bands, but no integration (5680bp) nor intact lacZ (4818bp). This suggests the parental strain is contaminated with a lacZ-deficient strain. This goes along with the absence of any expected blue colony phenotype from the transformation done on 20/8/2018.

Inoculation Results

After inoculating BL21DE3 controls on solid medium, the plates were left for overnight incubation. After ~14-18hr incubation, the following results were observed:

BL21DE3 stock	Medium	Result
old	LB+Cam	white colony growth
new	LB+Cam	no colony growth
old	LB+Kan	white colony growth
new	LB+Kan	no colony growth
old	LB+IPTG+X-gal*	blue colony growth
new	LB+IPTG+X-gal*	blue colony growth

*LB+IPT+X-gal plates from 22/8/2018 were used.

Based on these results, it was concluded that the old BL21DE3 batch already was contaminated with kanamycin and chloramphenicol resistance. The new batch does not show this, and therefore meets the requirements to continue in vivo screen work. Also, the plates poured on 22/8/2018 show good viability and chromogenic conversion of X-gal.

The nickel chromatography was not completely successful, but there is some purification of Tn5. The Tn5 did not completely bind to the nickel resin and was observed in the flowthrough and wash (lane 5-7). It is recommended to further optimize the nickel chromatography to further reduce losses, and reduce contaminating proteins due to non-specific binding to the nickel resin (lane 8-10). However for our purposes, the losses were tolerated. Elution fractions 1 to 3 were pooled (lane 8-10).

On the 6% tris-glycine SDS PAGE a single band for dxCas9 was observed for all conditions, suggesting that the double band might be some artifact of the 12% SDS PAGE. To further confirm these results, both bands from the 12% gel were excised and sent for mass spectrometry. The mass spectrometry confirmed that both bands were full length dxCas9 with both the N and C terminal intact. This concluded that there was not any protease digestion and that the results are potentially due to a gel artifact. As a result, the purification will continue.

As the figure shows, even with a increasing concentration of Imidazole during elution, the fusion protein breaks down. This can be seen in elution fractions 3-8 (lane 9-14). The conclusion is that another method needs to be thought of to purify the fusion protein.

Degradation was suspected for our fusion protein. Results seem to suggest that the fusion protein is being cleaved at the linker, resulting in both the dxCas9 and the fusion protein being present in our sample. The heparin chromatography was relatively successful at separating the two populations. The dxCas9 has a lower affinity to the heparin resin as a result it elutes at lower concentrations of salt (lane 2-10). As the concentration of salt increases less dxCas9 and more fusion elutes (lane 6-10). At high levels of salt the mostly fusion elutes (lane 11-13). Only these last three elution fractions are pooled (lane 11-13). Thus losses are tolerated, to obtain a relatively pure fusion fraction which can be further purified by MonoQ.

Degradation of our fusion protein is still significant. Results seem to suggest that the fusion protein is being cleaved at the linker, resulting in both the dxCas9 and the fusion protein being present in our sample. The heparin chromatography was relatively successful at separating the two populations. The dxCas9 has a lower affinity to the heparin resin as a result it elutes at lower concentrations of salt. As the concentration of salt increases less dxCas9 and more fusion elutes (gel1, lane 9-15 and gel2, lane 1-7). At high levels of salt the mostly fusion elutes (gel2, lane 8-15). Only these last eight elution fractions are pooled. Thus losses are tolerated, to obtain a relatively pure fusion fraction which can be further purified by MonoQ.

With the objective to generate EPO biobrick with a Kanamycin fragment as intron, high fidelity PCR was done to amplify EPO biobrick from junction 2 between introns. Primers 103 and 104 were used to PCR amplify the backbone. At the same time, primers 105 and 106 were used to PCR amplify a fragment from Kanamycin from the plasmid pSB1K3. Primer sequences can be found at: Primer sequences.

50 µL PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol.

The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 1.5 minutes and an annealing temperature of 65 °C. After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4 °C.

DNA Gel Electrophoresis

PCR products of EPO plasmid and kanamycin PCR were run on a 0.8 % agarose gel in TAE buffer.
- 5 μL of PCR product was pipetted into each lane with 1 µL of loading buffer.
- 4 µL of 500 bp DNA ladder
- 80 V for 30 minutes
- The gel was imaged using a gel documentation system with UV-light.

Transformation of chemically competent cells

Using the Gibson assembly reaction, the following transformations were carried out according to the protocol for transformation of chemically competent cells:

Strain	Plasmid & size (bp)	Cloning method	Volume added (uL)	Medium on which was plated
E.coliDH5αlpha	EPO backbone (2600 bp)	Restriction Ligation	10 µL	LB with Chloroamphenicol

400 µL LB medium was added as recovery medium.

Fusion protein functionality testing: integration of sequencing adapters on EPO backbone and Tn5 DNA

We aimed to perform the integration of adapters with our fusion protein on EPO biobrick circular DNA plasmid.

The components of the reagents can be found on the protocol. The sequence of the adapter used in this assay were sequencing adapters specified at Sequences page.

Fusion protein:adapter DNA complex formation
Tn5 or fusion protein was loaded with adapter DNA shown above by following the pipetting scheme shown on Table 2. All samples and reagents were kept on ice during preparation.

**Table 2:** Pipetting scheme for transposome formation.
	Reaction with fusion protein (µl)	Reaction no fusion protein (µl)
Buffer	1	0.6
Fusion (~3µM)	8	0
Tn5 (~8µM)	0	0
Adapter (25µM)	1	0.6
Water	0	4.8
Total	10	6

The reagents were pipetted in the following order: Water, 10x functionality buffer, dxCas9-Tn5, and adapter. The samples were incubated at 37°C for 1 hour.

To add appropriate amount of sgRNA, the pipetting scheme on Table 3 was followed. sgRNA J2.1 signifies version 1 of sgRNA targeting juntion 2 of EPO gene:

**Table 3:** Pipetting scheme for sgRNA loading.
	Reaction with sgRNA J2.1(µl)	Reaction no sgRNA(µl)
Transposome	4	4
sgRNA (100ng/µl)	0.8	0
MgCl₂ Buffer	0.2	0.2
Water	0	0.8

The samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes.
Target DNA (EPO cDNA) was added to make final concentration of ~5ng/µl. One negative control was done where water instead of EPO cDNA was added.

The samples were incubated at 37°C. At incubation time = 1h. 2.5 µl of sample were taken from each reaction and was subjected to PCR. PCR mix and cycle can be found on protocol.
The PCR products were analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. The resulting gel is either stained with ethidium bromide and imaged with GelDoc system, or directly imaged with Typhoon Imaging System.

Figure 1. 5% TBE native PAGE stained by EtBr and imaged by GelDoc system.Integration reaction after 1 hour. Lanes are (L) DNA ladder (100-1000bp), (1) amplified product with fw EPO (2) amplified product with rv EPO, (3) amplified product with fw EPO without sgRNA, (4) amplified product with rv EPO without sgRNA, (5) amplified product with fw EPO without fusion protein, (6) amplified product with rv EPO without fusion protein, (7) amplified product with fw EPO without adapter DNA, (8) amplified product with rv EPO without adapter DNA

Figure 1 did not show integration of adapters on plasmid DNA. The reaction was repeated with plasmid linearization before the integration.

Integration on linearized plasmid worked.

+<p>The PCR gave positive bands for all the spiked samples. But also for the negative control, the unspiked serum. After redoing of this PCR for the non spiked and spiked samples using the two EPO primer combinations 072+073 and 074+075 it became clear that there was a contamination in the non spiked serum samples.</p><br><br>
+<p>To avoid further contaminations the PCR reagents were tested with PCR on contaminations by using different reagents and also the reagents of the extraction kit were tested. There was no contamination in these reagents.

+<h4>Albumin PCR extractions 20/09 - 2 rounds</h4>
+<p>The exact same Albumin PCR steps were followed for the extractions of 20/09 as for the extractions of 10/09 that has positive bands for albumin after two rounds of PCR with the same primers. But, doing this with the samples of 20/09 did not give a positive result. No bands were visible. </p>

+Then, 200 mL distilled sterile water was be adjusted to pH 9 by carefully adding 1 M sodium hydroxide (NaOH) drops of 20 uL at a time, while keeping the solution sterile under a flame.<br>
+Subsequently, 25 mL of dextrin solution was prepared by dissolving 625 mg of dextrin powder in 25 mL of sterile MilliQ water to obtain a concentration of 25 g/L. This solution was then added to a sterile 250 mL flask.

+         <br>
+For the actual generation of the d-AuNPs the flask was then incubated at 50 °C, covered in aluminium foil with continuous shaking for 3 to 8 hours. After 3 to 8 hours shaking, a reddish colour was observed on the solution that is characteristic for the correct size nanoparticle formation. The solution was observed every 30 minutes to check for red color formation.<br>

+Transmission Electron Microscope analysis was performed to check the size and size distribution of the d-AuNPs. the suspension of d-AuNPs in distilled water (ratio 1:4) and sonicate it for 5 min.

One mistake was made by pipetting the complete d-AuNPs tube into the wells without mixing the tube constantly. The d-AuNPs were sedimentating to the bottom of the tube and this was pipetted into wells E1 and E2. These results should be left out of the data analysis.

+<p>In order to generate dextrin-capped gold nanoparticles, first a gold chloride (HAuCl<sub>4</sub>.H<sub>2</sub>O) stock solution of 50 mL was prepared by dissolving 393.8 mg of HAuCl<sub>4</sub>.H<sub>2O</sub> in 50 mL of distilled sterile water. After preparation, this solution was stored at 4 °C covered in aluminium foil.<br>
+Secondly, a 10% sterile sodium carbonate (Na<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>) solution was prepared by dissolving 4.985 g Na<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> in 50 mL MilliQ water, after which the solution was filter sterilized.<br>
+Then, 200 mL distilled sterile water was be adjusted to pH 9 by carefully adding 1 M sodium hydroxide (NaOH) drops of 20 uL at a time, while keeping the solution sterile under a flame.<br>
+Subsequently, 25 mL of dextrin solution was prepared by dissolving 625 mg of dextrin powder in 25 mL of sterile MilliQ water to obtain a concentration of 25 g/L. This solution was then added to a sterile 250 mL flask.
+<br>
+Then, 5 mL of the gold chloride stock solution was added to the 250 mL flask and the pH was adjusted to 9 with the sterile 10% sodium carbonate solution, while working sterile.<br>
+Lastly, the reaction volume was completed to 50 mL by adding 20 mL distilled water (pH = 9).<br>
+          <br>
+For the actual generation of the d-AuNPs the flask was then incubated at 50 °C, covered in aluminium foil with continuous shaking for 3 to 8 hours. After 3 to 8 hours shaking, a reddish colour was observed on the solution that is characteristic for the correct size nanoparticle formation. The solution was observed every 30 minutes to check for red color formation.<br>
+          <br>
+Transmission Electron Microscope analysis was performed to check the size and size distribution of the d-AuNPs. the suspension of d-AuNPs in distilled water (ratio 1:4) and sonicate it for 5 min. Then, after plasma treatment this solution was be transferred to a copper grid for imaging. The correct size of the d-AuNPs be in the order of 10 nm.

+<p>The aggregation of d-AuNPs occured at a final NaCl concentration of 100 mM. In comparison with the old d-AuNPs batch, they aggregate at a lower salt concentration indicating that they are less stable. This observation can be explained by the time that the gold nanoparticles were in solution. During the generation, dextrin solution was added. The incubation time was approximately 8 hours and in this time the gold nanoparticles were capped by dextrin. The dextin makes the gold nanoparticles more stable. However, when the gold nanoparticles stay in the solution for a longer time, the remaining dextrin can adhere to the gold nanoparticles, making them more stable.

+With the new batch of d-AuNPs, the salt concentration variation was performed again. The range of salt concentration is adapted from 0 to 1000 mM NaCl added concentration. Additionally, ssDNAp cause a stabilizing effect as the color change occurs at a higher salt concentration compared to the solutions without ssDNAp.

+</ul>
+<p>20 µL d-AuNPs, 10 µL target dsDNA, 6 µL hybridization buffer, 4 µL <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Primers#ssDNAp" target="_blank" class="adpbl">ssDNAp 1</a> and 20 µL of a varying salt concentration (range of 0 mM to 1000 mM) were added to the 96 wells plate.

+<p>The aggregation of d-AuNPs due to increasing salt concentration starts at 500 mM of NaCl. When a ssDNAp is added, the aggregation is extended to a NaCl concentration of 600 mM. However, presence of dsDNA target with a ssDNAp that can specifically bind to the target dsDNA does not influence the aggregation behavior drastically compared to the aggregation when dsDNA target is absent. Presence of only dsDNA target does decrease the stabilization of the d-AuNPs as they already aggregate at a NaCl added of 250 mM.</p>

+<p>To test the effect of DMSO on the PCR performance, one extra tube per amplicon was made that was supplemented with 1.5 μL DMSO (3% final) and 34 μL MilliQ.
+Additionally, instead of the amplified Tn5 PCR product as template, the original pTXB1-Tn5 plasmid was used as template.
+Finally, a negative control sample was taken into account that contained no primers and 37.5 μL MilliQ instead.<br>
+The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 1 min 30 seconds and an annealing temperature of 60 °C. In order to check the difference between two PCR machines (older one and new one), the tubes were divided over the two thermocyclers. After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4 °C.

Also, the HF buffer supplemented with 3% DMSO resulted in the required amplicon. Remarkably, the old PCR machine did result in thicker and brighter bands DNA.

+<p>Colony PCR was done to verify propagation of pACYC1Duet-1_Lin-Tn5 after transformation from 28-06-2018. This plasmid contains the Lin-Tn5 or Tn5-Lin insert, which can be checked with primers 029 and 030. There are two ways for colony PCR. The first one is picking a colony and directly resuspending the cells in PCR mixture. The second one is resuspending the colony in MilliQ, heating the suspension, centrifugation the broken cell pieces and taking the supernantant for PCR. In orde to test the efficiency of both methods, I tested both simultaneously. 22 colony PCR were performed by picking the colony and direct resuspension in the PCR mixture, while 20 colonies were picked and heated prior to pipetting the DNA into the PCR mixture.</p>

+<h4>High Fidelity PCR</h4>
+<p>To amplify Tn5-linker (1505bp), high fidelity PCR was done using pTXB1-Tn5 as template DNA and FP007 and FP008 as forward and reverse primers respectively. 3 100µL PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol.
+The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 1 minute and an annealing temperature of 60 °C. After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4°C.

+<h4>DNA Gel Electrophoresis</h4>
+<p>Tn5-Linker PCR reaction products were run on a 0.8% agarose gel in TAE buffer. 5μL was pipetted into each lane. The gel was imaged using a gel documentation system with UV-light. The gel was not saved properly, but the results showed correct amplification of a ~1.5kb amplicon in sample 1 and 3.</p>

+<h4 class="adpbl">Restriction</h4>
+<p>In our laboratory, we experienced some trouble with restriction ligation cloning. Therefore, I aimed for checking the efficiency of all restriction enzymes used in the cloning process. I used the pACYCDuet-1 plasmid and restricted this plasmid with the restriction enzyme XbaI and one of the restriction enzymes EcoRI, KpnI, NotI or FseI. To compare, I restricted the pACYCDuet-1 plasmid only with XbaI and as negative control I used no restriction enzyme to cut pACYCDuet-1.

+<h5>Sequence from plasmid</h5><br>
+<p> For verification of Tn5-lin insertion in pACYC, primers 003, 012, 029 and 030 were used for sequencing. The sequencing starts from the -20 bp position of fragment Tn5-lin, flanking the promoter of T7 and terminator from T7 of the vector. Sequencing sample was prepared in 1.5 mL tubes for each primer as indicated my Macrogen for specific concentration of plasmid DNA.
+    <br>
+    Primer sequences can be found at: <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Primers" target="_blank"> Primer sequences</a>. <br><br>
+    <p> Within 2 days, the sequence was retrievable online and alignment with the in silico designed molecule showed 100% match of the insert lin-Tn5, by aligning both primer sequences obtained. </p><br>

+<h4>High Fidelity PCR</h4>
+<p><p> To amplify dxCas9, Linker-Tn5 (1508 bp) and Tn5-Linkr (1505 bp), high fidelity PCR was done. The forward and reverse primers sets that were used are 001 & 002 and 005 & 006 and 007 & 008 respectively. Two times 3 times 50µL PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Experiments#highfidelityPCR-scroll" target="_blank" class="adpbl">High Fidelity PCR protocol</a>. However, one of the sets of 3 times 50µL PCR mixtures uses HF buffer and Phusion Polymerase, while the other set of 3 times 50µL PCR mixtures uses Q5 buffer and Q5 Polymerase.

+<h4>Colony PCR</h4>
+<p>Colony PCR was done to verify propagation of <i>Escherichia coli</i> DH5 alpha cells after transformation with pACYC dxCas9 containing lin-Tn5 (Reaction 1) or pACYC linTn5 containing dxCas9 (Reaction 2) as insert. This insertion can be checked with primers 029 and 030 (on T7 promoter and terminator), but were also tested with primers 001 with 002 for dxCas9 amplification and 005 with 006 for Tn5 amplification. Primer sequences can be found at: <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Primers" target="_blank"> Primer sequences</a>.

+<p>The dxCas9 coding sequence contains forbidden restriction sites to be RFC compatible. Therefore, Gblocks were ordered at IDT. The dxCas9 is to large to order as one Gblock. Therefore I ordered two Gblocks, also incorporating Linker-Tn5 coding sequences (Gblock 1 and 2). To be able to construct also a different variant of the fusion protein, two Gblocks were ordered in the order Tn5-Linker-dxCas9 (Gblock 3 and 4).
+<br>
+To amplify the Gblocks 1 and 2 as well as the pACYCDuet-1 backbone, high fidelity PCR was done. The template DNA are the Gblocks 1 (primerset 045 & 046) and 2 (primerset 047 & 048) and pACYCDuet-1 (primerset 049 & 050). Six 50µL PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Experiments#highfidelityPCR-scroll" target="_blank" class="adpbl">High Fidelity PCR protocol</a>.<br>

+<h4 class="adpbl">Gel Purification</h4>
+<p>The PCR reaction performed on 24/08/2018 were loaded on a gel. Since the expectation of contamination based on previous results, I decided to not use UV imaging due to the potential of creating mutations in the DNA. The amplicon pACYCDuet-1 backbone, Glock 1 and  2 have a size of 3778 bp, 2892 bp and 2890 bp respectively, but indeed the PCR samples were contaminated with by-products. The products were loaded on a gel prior to <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Experiments#DNApurificationfromgel-scroll" target="_blank">DNA purification from agarose gel conform protocol</a>.
+Elution was done in 50 µL Milli-Q.

+<p>The dxCas9 coding sequence contains forbidden restriction sites to be RFC compatible. Therefore, Gblocks were ordered at IDT. The dxCas9 is to large to order as one Gblock. Therefore I ordered two Gblocks, also incorporating Linker-Tn5 coding sequences (Gblock 1 and 2). To be able to construct also a different variant of the fusion protein, two Gblocks were ordered in the order Tn5-Linker-dxCas9 (Gblock 3 and 4).
+<br>
+To amplify the Gblocks 3 and 4 as well as the pACYCDuet-1 backbone, high fidelity PCR was done. The template DNA are the Gblocks 1 (primerset 045 & 046) and 2 (primerset 047 & 048) and pACYCDuet-1 (primerset 049 & 050). Additionally, we use the templates Gblocks 3 (primerset 079 & 080) and 4 (primerset 081 & 082) and pACYCDuet-1 (primerset 083 & 084).

+<p>The overlap PCR amplicons for construction of the fusion protein with Gblock 1 and 2 and Gblock 3 and 4 during overlap PCR were run on multiple 0.8% agarose gel in TAE buffer to check for amplification. Also, the ligation reaction mixture was loaded on the gel, to check if the desired plasmids were already assembled and ligated. 4 μL was pipetted into each lane. The gel was imaged using a gel documentation system with UV-light.</p>

+<h4>High Fidelity PCR</h4>
+<p> To eliminate the forbidden sites, high fidelity PCR was done using PACYCduet-fusionfs as template DNA. To check the primers, all needed eliminations were performed parallel. The primers used can be found in the table. Phosphorylated primers were used. This makes the product compitable for blunt end ligation. 6x 50µL PCR mixture were prepared, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol. Expected size of the product PACYCduet-fusion-mutation is 9432 bp.

+<p><b>Tn5:adapter DNA complex formation</b><br>
+Since this is the first time this experiment was done, the idea is to get the idea of the required amount of adapter needed in the reaction. Therefore 3 different adapter concentrations were added, namely 5µM, 25µM and 50µM. Tn5  was loaded with adapter DNA shown above by following the pipetting scheme shown on Table 2. All samples and reagents were kept on ice during preparation.

+<h4>High Fidelity PCR</h4>
+<p> This PCR reaction was done to amplify sgRNA template for EPO. There are two different sgRNA that will target slightly different position of EPO cDNA. The two templates will be addressed as sgRNA for EPO1 and sgRNA for EPO2. To amplify  sgRNA for EPO1 and EPO2 (125bp), high fidelity PCR was done using sgRNA for EPO gBlocks as template DNA and either 033 and 034 or 035 and 034 as forward and reverse primers respectively. 2 50µL PCR mixtures were prepared for each amplification of sgRNA for EPO, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol. 1 50µl of PCR mixtures with no template and primer 035 and 034 were prepared in parallel for negative control.

+<h4>Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay
+</h4>
+    <p>Previous integration assay did not show any integration product on the gel. In this section, we will perform PCR amplication with primer sets that will specifically bind to integration product (primer will bind on the target DNA on one side, and to the adapter on the other side). Since this is the first time this type of experiment was carried out. Different variables were tested:</p>
+        <ul class="uladpbl">
+            <li>Two different reaction time were tested, namely 1 and 16 hours to see the effect of reaction duration on integration. </li>
+            <li>Some of the reaction were stopped with heat or SDS to release DNA from the protein. PCR clean up were carried out right after the integration to get rid of excess SDS before PCR.</li>
+            <li>For the rest of the reaction, PCR reaction was done directly after integration.</li>
+            <li>The PCR product was either directly run on the gel, or was first subjected to PCR clean up to get rid of small background DNA fragment before running it on the gel.</li>

+<h4>Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay
+</h4>
+    <p>From previous reaction, we saw that we were able to amplify some integration product, eventhough it was difficult to see whether or not it's specifically targetted. Therefore, we included more negative control in this reaction. Moreover, it was shown than performing PCR clean up prior to PCR leads no amplification of the integration product, perhaps due to the loss of products that might have been in very little amount during clean up process. Therefore, the following will be implemented in this reaction </p>
+        <ul class="uladpbl">
+            <li>The course of integration over time will be observed by stoping the integration reaction at 4 different time points, namely 1 hour, 4 hours, 8 hour, and over night.</li>
+            <li> PCR clean up procedure will not be implemented prior or post PCR reaction.</li>
+            <li>Second round PCR will be not implemented. </li>
+            <li>More negative control will be implemented. This includes reaction without adapter (to see whether there will be integration), without EPO (to see whether there will still be amplification product), without sgRNA (to compare the supposedly targetted integration guided by sgRNA vs non targetted integration), reaction with Tn5 (to compare the supposedly targetted integration by our fusion protien vs random integration by Tn5) </li>

+ <p>Figure 1 showed the result of PCR. Hyphothetically, sgRNA would steer the fusion protein to the target EPO (~600bp), specifically to the area close to the 160th bp. When specific integration occurs, target EPO will be split into two fragments of around  280 and 480. PCR reactions were done with primer sets that would amplify these fragments seperately. Lane 2 shows the PCR of the first fragment. A very intense band were indeed present around 230bp, confirming the presence of this integration product. Lane 3 shows the PCR of second fragment. An intense band were also present around 480bp, which also confirmed the presence of the second integration product. On the negative control lanes (without sgRNA or with Tn5), random bands were present, and none of these intense bands shown on lane 2 and 3 were observed here . This confirmed further that targeted integration indeed occur due to our fusion protein that is loaded with sgRNA. The absence of amplification bands on the other negative controls confirmed our result further. </p>
+    <p>Results of the longer incubation time shows similar result. However, it seems like the specific bands loses intensity with increasing time, suggesting perhaps re-integration events done by excess fusion protein. The higher intensity of unspecific lower bands over time strengthen this analysis further. Figure 2,3 and 4 displays the result of PCR after 4, 8, and overnight incubation time</p>

+<h4>Fusion protein functionality testing: integration assay

In this experiment, we would like to confirm this further by using a longer target DNA. If specific integration indeed occur, one of the new amplified fragment should also get longer by the same increase. Moreover, more sgRNA were tested to check whether other parts of the target EPO is also accessible. The following will therefore be done:</p>

+<p>The samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes. <br>
+Target DNA (EPO cDNA) was added to make final concentration of ~5ng/µl. Three different types of EPO are present. The following reactions were done:</p>
+<ul class="uladpbl">
+    <li>Normal EPO was targetted by sgRNAJ1.1, J2.1, J3.1, J4.1 to see whether all junctions are equality accessible</li>
+    <li>EPO with intron on Junction 3 was targetted by sgRNA 2.1 to see the increase of the size of the second fragment in comparison to the previous successfull experiments.</li>
+    <li>EPO with intron on Junction 3 was targetted by J3.1 to see whether EPO can be targetted even though the target site is disrupted by an intron sequence. </li>
+    <li>EPO with intron on Junction 4 was targetted by J4.1 to see whether EPO can be targetted even though the target site is disrupted by an intron sequence.</li>
+    <li>As a negative control reaction without sgRNA with normal EPO or EPO with intron on junction 3 or 4 were carried out in parallel</li>
+    </ul>
+<p>The samples were incubated at 37°C. At incubation time = 30 mins, 2.5 µl of sample from reaction with normal EPO + sgRNA J2.1 were taken along with the necessary negative control reactions to see whether we can decrease off target even more by deacreasing reaction time. These samples were then subjected to PCR based on the protocol. At incubation time=1 hours, 2.5µl sample from each reaction were subjected to PCR. PCR mix and cycle can be found on protocol.
+<br>
+The PCR products were analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. The resulting gel is either stained with ethidium bromide and imaged with GelDoc system. The resulting gels for intergration with sgRNA J1.1 - J4.1 are shown on figure 1-4.

+    <h4>Sequence Verification of Integration Products </h4>
+<p> In order to confirm that the integration products of the functionality test were the ones we expected, we attempted to sequence verify them. We load the whole PCR product visualized on lane 2 and 3 from functionality assay on 28/09/2018 on 2% agarose gel and isolated the bands from the gel and purify them. Since a very low concentration was achieved, another round of PCR was done using the isolated fragment as template. We cleaned up the PCR product and achieved concentration of 250ng/µl for fragment 1, and 50ng/µl for fragment 2. </p>
+    <p>We sent these PCR products individually for sequencing. The alignment result of this sequence is shown on Figure 1.</p>
+    <img class="img-responsive" src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2018/3/31/T--TUDelft--venda_10_15_fig1.png" alt="Gel electrophoresis">

+        <i>Sequence alignment of integration product (two red arrows) with the target EPO. Pink box represent the sgRNA binding site.
+  </i>
+    <br><br>
+    <p> Figure 1 shows the sequence alignment between the two fragments and the target EPO gene.From the sequence alignment, we can confirm that integration occured upstream the sgRNA binding site. The overlapping alignment between the two products  suggested that integration does not always occur at the exact base pair position (~10bp variation), which might be the result of the flexible linker between dxCas9 and Tn5.
+</p>
+    <p>Next, we used pGEM T-Easy cloning method to clone these fragments on individual plasmid to be able to sequence verify them individually. By doing this we will be able to see the variations within that band individually. The protocol for pGEM T-Easy can be found on the protocol page. We used 2µl of 10x diluted sample of isolated fragment 1 or 1µl of isolated fragment 2 to be cloned into the plasmid. We were able to get white colonies and isolated their plasmid, but however, the sequence verification result did not come on time.</p>

+<h4>Colony PCR</h4>
+<p>Colony PCR was done to verify the success of EPO and sgRNA for LacZ biobrick. 3 different colonies from each plate were subjected to colony PCR. Two different primer sets were used. Biobrick primers 031 and 032 were used to verify the size of the insert. Primers 038 and 039 were used to verify the presence of EPO fragment within the biobrick backbone. Primers IV003 and IV004 were used to verify the presence of sgRNA for LacZ fragment within the biobrick backbone.
+<p>The PCR components and program can be found on the colony PCR protocol page. The PCR products were run on 2% TAE agarose gel shown on Figure 1. Upper lanes of Figure 1 shows amplification of insert with primers that anneal to the biobrick backbone flanking the insert (031 and 032). Lower lanes on Figure 1 shows amplification of insert with internal primers. All and all, the results confirmed insertion of the correct insert length.  </p>

Also, another attempt with IV007 and IV008 on gDNA was done to get a positive control band at 4818bp. 25µL PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol.
+    <br>
+</p>
+<p>All samples contained 1µL of DMSO. The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 1 minute/kb amplicon and an annealing temperature ranging from 55 to 67°C (55; 56.1; 57.8; 59.8; 62.5; 64.7; 66.2; 67). After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4 °C.</p>

+A colony of BL21DE3+pACYCdxCas9Tn5<i>lacZ</i>gRNA was used for inoculation of 60mL liquid starter culture (Luria Broth, complemented with chloramphenicol) following the Liquid Starter Culture Protocol.
+</p>

+The idea was to inoculate a white phenotype colony (BL21DE3 + pACYCTn5 + MEpKantME, plated on LB+Xgal+IPTG+Cam+Kan, 15/9/2018). But the phenotype has changed over two days to form a red colony. <b>This was the first indication of what was going to become a hard time.

+<h4>High Fidelity PCR</h4>
+<p> To amplify kanamycin with ME flanks and biobrick flanks (~1kb) for placing it into a biobrick, high fidelity PCR was done using pSB1K3 as template DNA and IV017 & IV018 as forward and reverse primers respectively. PCR mixtures were prepared, according to the High Fidelity PCR protocol.
+<p>The thermocycler programme was installed to have an extension time of 50sec and an annealing temperature of 65°C. After the programme was finished, samples were kept at 4 °C.</p>

+     <p>No Tn5 was observed in the lysate or the elution fraction. At first, we thought an error occurred during expression, however after thorough analysis we identified our mistake. There was a miss communication between stain construction and bioprocess as a result the plasmid was in the incorrect host organism. The Tn5 plasmid was still in DH5 alpha. Going forward, all transformation into expression host will be covered by the bioprocess team, to avoid this mistake in the future. </p>

+    <h4> Protein Purification - <i>Heparin Chromatography</i></h4>
+    <p>The Tn5 protein was further purified with Heparin chromatography. The 1mL HiTrap Heparin HP column was connected to the AKTA pure in the cold room at 4 ℃. 2.5mL of nickel chromatography elution fraction 1-5 from Tn5 protein was injected into the injection loop and the chromatography was followed according to the Purification Protocol.
+</p>
+        <br>
+    <h4> Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel </h4>
+<p>In order to analyse the heparin chromatography of the Tn5 protein, a precast Tris-Glycine polyacrylamide gel was run with a 6% stacking gel and 20% separation gel according to the SDS PAGE Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel protocol.The polyacrylamide gel ran for 90min at 50volt. After the was completed, the gel was stained with SimplyBlue SafeStain and imaged using the GelDoc system. The result of the gel is shown below:

+   <p>The nickel chromatography was not completely successful, but there is some purification of Tn5. The Tn5 did not completely bind to the nickel resin and was observed in the flowthrough and wash (lane 5-7). It is recommended to further optimize the nickel chromatography to further reduce losses, and reduce contaminating proteins due to non-specific binding to the nickel resin (lane 8-10). However for our purposes, the losses were tolerated. Elution fractions 1 to 3 were pooled (lane 8-10).</p>

The dxCas9 did not completely bind to the nickel resin and was observed in the flowthrough and wash (lane 6-8). It is recommended to further optimize the nickel chromatography to further reduce losses, and reduce contaminating proteins due to non-specific binding to the nickel resin (lane 9-10). However for our purposes, the losses were tolerated, and only elution fractions 3 to 6 were pooled (lane 11-14). Additionally, a double band for dxCas9 is observed. The purification will be continued however, we will look deeper into this observation. Is this double band due to degradation, or some other interaction with the dxcas9? We are working with technicians on performing mass spectrometry. </p>

+<h4>Protein Purification - <em>Dialysis</em></h4>
+<p>Finally the dxCas9 protein is dialysed and concentrated. 3mL of sample (Heparin chromatography elution fraction 5-10 of dxCas9 protein) were dialysed according to the purification protocol with dialysis buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 100 mM KCl, 5% glycerol, 1mM beta-Mercaptoethanol, pH 7.5). After dialysis, the sample of dxCas9 protein was stored at -20℃, according to the purification protocol.</p>

+    <p>In order to analyse the concentrated dxCas9 protein, a precast Tris-Glycine polyacrylamide gel was run with a 6% stacking gel and 8% separation gel according to the SDS PAGE Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel protocol. The polyacrylamide gel ran for 90min at 50volt. After the was completed, the gel was stained with SimplyBlue SafeStain and imaged using the GelDoc system. The result of the gel is shown below:

+    <p> Note the dxCas9 is only one band on the 8% PAGE. The purification will be continued however, we will look deeper into this observation. What causes this double band? Is there degradation, or some other interaction with the dxcas9? Also what happened during the final dialysis step to remove the double band? Trace amounts of contaminating background is observed, however dxCas9 is significantly more in quantity and the background was tolerated for functionality testing. The final concentration of the solution was determined according to the BCA protocol on our wiki and resulted in a concentration of 0.46mg/mL or 2.88µM. The <p/>

+        <br>
+   <p>As the two figures show, even with decreasing the concentration of Imidazole, no purification of dxCas9-Tn5 happened. The fusion protein broke apart. This can already be seen in the samples before purification (figure col 1 lane 2-5, figure col 2 lane 2-5). The conclusion is that the fusion protein probably breaks at the linke, due to two bands at approximatly the same height as dxCas9 and Tn5. Another purification will be done, now with a gradient elution.</p>

+</p>
+   <p>  On the 6% tris-glycine SDS PAGE a single band for dxCas9 was observed for all conditions, suggesting that the double band might be some artifact of the 12% SDS PAGE. To further confirm these results, both bands from the 12% gel were excised and sent for mass spectrometry. The mass spectrometry confirmed that both bands were full length dxCas9 with both the N and C terminal intact. This concluded that there was not any protease digestion and that the results are potentially due to a gel artifact. As a result, the purification will continue.</p>

+    <p>Degradation was suspected for our fusion protein. Results seem to suggest that the fusion protein is being cleaved at the linker, resulting in both the dxCas9 and the fusion protein being present in our sample. The heparin chromatography was relatively successful at separating the two populations. The dxCas9 has a lower affinity to the heparin resin as a result it elutes at lower concentrations of salt (lane 2-10). As the concentration of salt increases less dxCas9 and more fusion elutes (lane 6-10). At high levels of salt the mostly fusion elutes (lane 11-13). Only these last three elution fractions are pooled (lane 11-13). Thus losses are tolerated, to obtain a relatively pure fusion fraction which can be further purified by MonoQ.</p>

+    <p>1mL of 50% His-Select Ni resin, was washed according to the Purification protocol. Clarified lysate of Tn5 protein was added to the washed His-Select Ni resin and incubated with gentle mixing for 60minutes at 4 ℃. The His-Select Ni resins were washed with washing buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 250 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 20mM imidazole, 1mM DTT, pH8), and eluded with with 6* 500μL (6CV) of elution buffer (20 mM Tris-HCl, 250 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 250mM imidazole, 1mM DTT, pH8) at 4 ℃, according to the Purification protocol.
+</p>
+        <br>
+    <h4> Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel </h4>
+<p>In order to analyse the nickel affinty chromatography of the Tn5 protein, a precast Tris-Glycine polyacrylamide gel was run with a 6% stacking gel and 8% separation gel according to the SDS PAGE Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel protocol.The polyacrylamide gel ran for 90min at 50volt. After the was completed, the gel was stained with SimplyBlue SafeStain and imaged using the GelDoc system. The result of the gel is shown below:

+<b>Figure Nickel Affinity Chromatography. </b> <i> 8% SDS PAGE of Tn5 (expected size 53.3kDa). Lane 1 high range molecular ladder (kDa), lane 2 whole lysate, lane 3 clarified lysate, lane 4 cell debris, lane 5 flow through, lane 6 wash, lane 7 elution 1, lane 8 elution 2, lane 9 elution 3, lane 10 elution 4, lane 11 elution 5, lane 12 elution 6.</i>
+ </p>
+        <br>
+   <p>The nickel chromatography was not completely successful, but there is some purification of Tn5. The Tn5 did not completely bind to the nickel resin and was observed in the flowthrough and wash (lane 6-7). It is recommended to further optimize the nickel chromatography to further reduce losses, and reduce contaminating proteins due to non-specific binding to the nickel resin (lane 9-10). However for our purposes, the losses were tolerated.</p>

+    <p>Degradation of our fusion protein is still significant. Results seem to suggest that the fusion protein is being cleaved at the linker, resulting in both the dxCas9 and the fusion protein being present in our sample. The heparin chromatography was relatively successful at separating the two populations. The dxCas9 has a lower affinity to the heparin resin as a result it elutes at lower concentrations of salt. As the concentration of salt increases less dxCas9 and more fusion elutes (gel1, lane 9-15 and gel2, lane 1-7). At high levels of salt the mostly fusion elutes (gel2, lane 8-15). Only these last eight elution fractions are pooled. Thus losses are tolerated, to obtain a relatively pure fusion fraction which can be further purified by MonoQ.</p>

+     <h4>Protein Purification <i>- MonoQ Chromatography</i></h4>
+<p>The fusion protein was further purified with MonoQ chromatography. The 1mL MonoQ 5/50 GL column was connected to the AKTA pure in the cold room at 4 ℃.  16mL of sample (4x diluted heparin chromatography elution fraction 16-23 of fusion protein) was injected into the injection loop and the chromatography was followed according to the Purification Protocol. </p>
+<br>
+    <br>
+    <h4> Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel </h4>
+<p>In order to analyse monoQ of the fusion protein, a precast Tris-Glycine polyacrylamide gel was run with a 6% stacking gel and 8% separation gel according to the SDS PAGE Tris-Glycine Polyacrylamide Gel protocol. The polyacrylamide gel ran for 90min at 50volt. After the was completed, the gel was stained with SimplyBlue SafeStain and imaged using the GelDoc system. The result of the gel is shown below:

+    <p>After dialysis, 4.5mL of sample of fusion protein was concentrated to a final volume of 0.6mL and  stored at -20℃, according to the purification protocol. Trace amounts of contaminating background was observed, however, the fusion was significantly more in quantity and the background was tolerated for functionality testing. The final concentration of the solution was determined according to the BCA protocol and resulted in a concentration of 0.56mg/mL.<p/>

+<h4>High Fidelity PCR</h4>
+<p> With the objective to generate <i>EPO</i> biobrick with a Kanamycin fragment as intron, high fidelity PCR was done to amplify EPO biobrick from junction 2 between introns. Primers 103 and 104 were used to PCR amplify the backbone. At the same time, primers 105 and 106 were used to PCR amplify a fragment from Kanamycin from the plasmid pSB1K3. Primer sequences can be found at: <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Primers" target="_blank"> Primer sequences</a>. <br><br>

+<h4>Fusion protein functionality testing: integration of sequencing adapters on EPO backbone and Tn5 DNA
+</h4>
+    <p>We aimed to perform the integration of adapters with our fusion protein on EPO biobrick circular DNA plasmid. </p>
+    <p>The components of the reagents can be found on the protocol. The sequence of the adapter used in this assay were sequencing adapters specified  at  <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Team:TUDelft/Primers" target="_blank"> Sequences</a> page.</p>
+<br>
+<br>
+<p><b>Fusion protein:adapter DNA complex formation</b><br>
+Tn5 or fusion protein was loaded with adapter DNA shown above by following the pipetting scheme shown on Table 2. All samples and reagents were kept on ice during preparation.

+<p>The samples were incubated at 37°C for 10 minutes. <br>
+Target DNA (EPO cDNA) was added to make final concentration of ~5ng/µl. One negative control was done where water instead of EPO cDNA was added.
+</p>
+<p>The samples were incubated at 37°C. At incubation time = 1h. 2.5 µl of sample were taken from each reaction and was subjected to PCR. PCR mix and cycle can be found on protocol.
+<br>
+The PCR products were analysed on 5% native TBE polyacrylamide gel. The resulting gel is either stained with ethidium bromide and imaged with GelDoc system, or directly imaged with Typhoon Imaging System.
