Transforming E. Coli Rosetta and MG1655 for pRED/ET engineering

2018/08/28

Participants: Dominic
Protocol: epo trafo
Notes: Genetic engineering is planned in E. Coli Rosetta, MG1655 is E.Coli WT as backup.
Results: colonies only on E. Coli MG1655 plate;

No colonies on E. Coli Rosetta

pRED/ET genome engineering of delta msb-B and delta recBCD strains

2018/08/29

Participants: Dominic
Protocol: pRED/ET engineering protocol
Notes: the template for the resistance cassette for deletions was taken from a plasmid containing mRFP
Results: red colonies. Elena (Advisor) and Dominic decided to repeat the experiment but to do a dpnI digest before to get rid of the template DNA.

Transforming E. Coli DH5a to find a reason for the contamination

2018/08/30

Participants: Dominic
Protocol: epo trafo
Notes: CAP_recBCD, CAP_msbb, psb1c3_mrfp in Dh5a
Results: red colonies on all plates -> mRFP contamination
