Obtaining Genes

Both fungal and bacterial acetylases have three functional domains- a deacetylase domain, a chitin binding zone, and a low density lipoprotein receptor region. By using the bioinformatics BLAST technique, a sequence highly conserved with known deacetylase domain sequences was searched in the NCBI soft armor gene database.

The restriction enzyme cutting sites of our experiment are BamH I (198) and Hind III (173)

Transfection 

The plasmid was diluted 1000-fold and 10000-fold, and the competent bacteria BL-21 was added for 30 minutes in an ice bath. Then we heated the bacteria at 42 degrees for one minute, and ice-bathed for five more minutes. After that, we added 400 ml of LB without Kana antibiotic and shook the bacterial fluid. Finally, the bacteria were sprayed on a petri dish with kana antibiotics.

Bacterial Fluid PCR to filter positive clones

To insure the plasmids were successfully transfected, we conducted bacterial fluid PCR. Our groupmates take ten 1.5 ml EP tubes, add 200 μl of kana resistant medium separately, directly draw a single clone with a small pipette tip and push the TIP directly into an EP tube. We covered the EP tube and shake the bacteria at 37 degrees for 2-3 hours. Then 1μl of the bacterial solution was used as a template to identify the PCR positive clone. DNA gel electrophoresis was used to see if there was a target strip to judge.
