LAB MATERIALS

Lab syllabus

Lab 1Bacterial Transformation/DNA IS the genetic material   Transformation animation here. Transformation analysis handout: here

Lab 2--- pGLO plasmid purification.   (Be sure to bring your analysis handout from Lab 1 and have hade detailed observations of your 6 plates.  We will start with discussion.

Lab 3---Basic analyis of pGLO plasmid.  Good video on restriction enzymes: HERE (scroll in about 3:50 minutes).

Lab 4--electrophoresis of pGLO plasmid restriction fragments---making a restriction map. Agarose gel prep. Here

protein gel picture

-Native gel picture from previous  year's class.  Lane 1 is protein marker, the rest of the lanes are lysates from E. coli transformants. Our gel did not run far enough to see many bands or to resolve the molecular weight marker.
