Exp1: Probe prep (cont.)[edit]

  • Starting from ethanol precipitated DNAs made at 10/18/2007.
  • Pool two tubes of the same amplicons into ~100ul in total, add 11ul 10x Lambda Exo buffer, 4ul 5U/ul Lambda exonuclease. Incubate @ 37C for 2 hours, check 2ul of the products in both 8% TBE gels and 6% TBU gels.

  • I saw sharp bands in the non-denaturing gel, suggesting there are still a lot of dsDNA. I decided to incubate the reactions for another 4 hours. I probably used the wrong reverse primer for the eSNP84k sets. I should have used the phosAP2V4 instead of AP2V4, since lambda exonuclease doesn't cut without a 5'-phosphate group.

Exp2: Repeat PCR amplification on the eSNP84k library[edit]

Reactions eSNP84k set1-5 (100nM):

                              x 8 x 5 
    Template        0.2ul      1.6ul x 5 
    10X buffer       10ul       80ul x 5 
    10mM dNTP         2ul       16ul x 5
    100uM AP1V41U   0.4ul      3.2ul x 5
    100uM phosAp2V4 0.4ul      3.2ul x 5
    AmpliTaq Gold     1ul       16ul x 5
    H2O              86ul      680ul x 5
    50X SYBR I      0.8ul      6.4ul x 5

95C 15min -> 17 cycles of (94C 45sec -> 58C 2min -> 72C 1min) -> 72C 3min -> 4C hold

The curves came up a little bit later than the previous amplification using JumpStart Taq. I did 3 more cycles, and purified 200ul of reactions with QiaQuick columns. The yield was pretty low, so I added two more cycles and purified another 200ul reactions.

         Lib     20cyc       22cyc
         #1     10ng/ul     19ng/ul
         #2      8ng/ul     15ng/ul
         #3      7ng/ul     15ng/ul
         #4     10ng/ul     24ng/ul
         #5      6ng/ul     10ng/ul

I also purified the remaining reactions (400ul each) with ethanol precipitation.

Mix the DNAs of the same library, add 10ul NEBuffer 4, 2ul BciVI, incubate @ 37C for 2 hours, 65C 20min.

Add 2ul T7 exonuclease, 37C 2h, add 2ul USER enzyme, 37C 2h.

For the ethanol precipitated DNAs, I resuspended them in 90ul dH2O, add 10ul 10x NEBuffer 4, 2ul BciVI, 37C 2h, 65C 20min, add 2ul T7 exo, 37C 2h.

For the batch I, add 3ul USER, 37C 2h. For the batch II, incubate @ 37C 2h, add 5ul USER, incubate @ 37C 4h. Check with PAGE gel.

Perform phenol extraction on the batch I, then concentrate with Vacufuge. I lost all DNA in the vacufuge because I placed the rotor upside down and all liquid came out during spinning. I've turned the rotor over.
