Charles, Andy, Anne:
- Prepared o/n of DH5a and DH5a-z1 for making competent cells
- Mini-prepped UT3 ABCD and P0352 (2005) BC, P0456 (2005) BC
- Tested (EcoRI, PstI) length of UT3 ABCD (All wrong lengths, same as Sept ## result), P0352 (2005) BC (both have only one band, retry with higher DNA conc.), P0456 (2005) BC (correct lengths)
- Made Plates and transformed P0452 (2006) and I12006 (2006)
- Printed/posted protocols
- Ligated UT1 ABC to P0352 A (2005) and P0456 A (2005) overnight
To-Do List:
- Finish up ligation of UT1 and P0352 and P0456 (Heat inactivate)
- Transform and plate UT4 (UT1 + P0352 (2005)) ABC and UT5 (UT1 + P0456 (2005)) ABC
- Make o/n of P0452 (2006) and I12006 (2006) for miniprep
- Make DH5a and DH5a-z1 competent cells
- Plan testing using DH5a cells

Charles:
- Prepare o/n of UT3 ABCD and P0352, P0456 (2005) (2 vials each)
To-Do List:
- Prepare o/n of DH5a and DH5a-z1 for making competent cells
- Miniprep UT3 ABCD and P0352, P0456 (2005) and test
- Make Plates and transform P0452 (2006) and I12006 (2006)
- Double Digest (total volume = 30 uL) P0352 and P0456 (2005) with EcoI/XbaI in Buffer 2 and then do a gel extract/purification
- Ligate UT1 and P0352/P0456 (3 tries each)

September 29, 2006
Charles:
- Prepared o/n of DH5a-z1 and UT3 ABCD to miniprep again
- Plated DH5a
To-Do List:
- Make new competent DH5a-z1
- Prepare o/n of regular DH5a
- Plated P0 (2006) using new competent cells
- Double digest UT1 (host) with SpeI/PstI in Buffer 2 and double digest P0352/P0456 (2005) with XbaI/PstI in Buffer 3

September 28, 2006
Andy:
- Miniprep P0456 (2005)
- Checked the lengths (EcoRI and PstI, Buffer EcoRI): UT3 ABCDE, P0456 (2005) and P0352 (2005)
- Transformed P0152, P0352, P0452, and P0456 (2006). [Plated on Amp plates, because no more Amp/Kan plate]
To-Do List:
- Plate DH5a cells
- Make LB Broth, plates and print protocols
- Digest P0352 and P0456 (2005) and ligate with UT1
- Prepare o/n of UT3 ABCDE again and try to miniprep again

September 27, 2006
Charles:
- Made freezer stocks of UT2 x 2 and UT3 x 2
Andy, Natalie:
- Mini-preppred UT3 B(AB) C(BB) D(BC) E(CC)
- Transformed and plated P0452 (2005) (On Amp rather than proper AK)
- Checked lengths of UT3 BCDE (inconclusive due to anomalous bands, D appears promising - yellow rating), P0152 (2nd check, Extra band, wrong insert length), P0352 (2nd check, not the best bands, correct lengths - changed rating from red to yellow)
- Prepared o/n of P0456 (2005) for Miniprep
- Added part lengths and resistance info in spreadsheet
To-Do List:
- Miniprep P0456 (2005)
- Take P0456, P0452, P0152, P0352 from 2006 registry
- Check lengths of UT3 BCDE and P0352 again
- Make more plates, make more LB
- Learn to use new DH5a (with no LacI expression) for testing
- Post up new protocols
