Charles:
- Made 22 competent cells
- Tested Module 1 using varying concentrations of IPTG (0, 2, 20, 200, 2000 uM) to induce GFP (E0240 (2005)) and mRFP (I13507 (2005))
To-Do List:
- Post up new protocols, include part length and resistance info in spreadsheet
- Make more plates and re-plate P0452 (2005) – AK, and P0456 (2005) – AC
September 20, 2006
Natalie, Andy:
- Prepared o/n growth of UT3 BCDE for mini-prep, DH5a for competent cells, and UT2 – 3,4,5, UT3 – 7,8,9 and DH5a x 2 (control) for making fluorescence measurements.
- Checked lengths of miniprep UT2 ABCDEF, UT3 A (possibly unreliable due to 2 day o/n growth), P0352 (2005), and P0152 (2005).
To-Do List:
- Make 24 competent cells
- Miniprep UT3 BCDE and test lengths
- Make more plates and re-plate P0452 (2005) – AK, and P0456 (2005) – AC
- Do measurements on UT2 and UT3
- Post up new protocols, include part length and resistance info in spreadsheet

Charles:
- Only mini-prepped UT3 A because they were grown for two o/n (Just want to see what happens)
- Prepared new o/n for UT3 BCDE as well as 1 DH5a-z1, 2 UT2 and 2 UT3 for testing tomorrow. And 1 DH5a-z1 for making competent cells
To-Do List:
- Make 24 competent cells
- Test the lengths of UT2 ABCEDF, P0352 (2005), P0152 (2005), and UT3 BCDE
- Make more plates and re-plate P0452 (2005) – AK, and P0456 (2005) – AC
- Prepare new o/n for UT3 BCDE – for mini-prep
- Prepare o/n in the following quantities: 3 DH5a-z1, 3 UT2 and 3 UT3

September 16, 2006
Charles:
- Made 4 replications of UT2 in 200 uM, 100 uM, 50 uM, 25 uM and 0 uM of IPTG.
- OD of cells is too high, need to be <= 1.2
- Need a control of untransformed DH5a-z1 to compare the relative fluorescence
- Made frozen stock (2 vials each): UT01, I13507 (2005), B0015 (2005), B0031 (2005)
- Mini-prepped UT2 ABCEDF, P0352 (2005) and P0152 (2005)
To-Do List:
- Test the lengths of UT2 ABCEDF, P0352 (2005) and P0152 (2005)
- Prepare an o/n growth of the “best” UT2 for testing
- Prepare an o/n growth of regular DH5a-z1
- Mini-prep UT03 ABCD and test their lengths along with P00352 (2005) and P0152 (2005)
- Re-plate P0452 (2005) - AK, and P0456 (2005) - AC
- Make 24 competent cells

Andy, Charles, Natalie, Stan, Elliott:
- Checked and transformed I+J+I plasmids (Bands: ~6000-5000, 3500-2500 (smear))
- Made competent cells (although, may have to repeat)
- Prepared o/n growths of I+J+E (12 vials), P0152 (2005) and P0352 (2005). P0456 (2005) and P0452 (2005) did not seem to grow very well so left them in the incubator for a 2nd night
- Made 8 Amp plates
To-Do List:
- Mini-prep P0152 (2005), P0352 (2005) and 6 of the I+J+E
- Try to get J04450 (2006) working again.
- Check lengths of R0011 (2005/6), if no good, then obtain R0010 (2005/6) from Registry
- Make freezer stock (2 each) of I+J, B0015 (2005), B0031 (2005), and I13507 (2005) and put in -80C freezer stock
- Test the fluorescence of I+J+E
