This lab involved assembling the pHLsec-CaMPARI plasmid using Gibson Assembly, followed by transformation into competent E. coli cells. Students compared experimental and control plates to assess colony growth, verify plasmid uptake, and troubleshoot transformation success. Accurate labeling, colony counting, and understanding of antibiotic selection were key components.

Lab #5 ELN Weekly Guidelines - Gibson Assembly, Transformation, and Interim Lab


NOTE - Because we are waiting for colonies to form, your ELN submission will be
postponed.
WED section - ELN due on Friday 6pm
THUR section - ELN due on Monday at 6pm
FRI section - ELN due on Tuesday at 6pm


PURPOSE
❏ Mention all protocols (3) protocol used!
❏ Briefly describe what was done to state WHY it was relevant!
❏ Gibson Assembly, Transformation, and Interim Lab
❏ State how these protocols will help you reach your CaMPARI project goals
*It is a given that you will be learning new lab techniques - this does NOT need to
be stated

METHODS
❏ Copy & Paste all protocols (3)
❏ Gibson Assembly, Transformation, and Interim Lab
❏ Complete the Gibson Assembly Reaction Table.
You do not need to include your plate art, but you are free to! (this does not need
to be analyzed in Results - Data or Text)

RESULTS - DATA
❏ Raw Control and Experimental plate images provided by Lab Manager Staff
❏ Include these as Panel A and Panel B (Multi-panel figure!)
❏ Remember to include appropriate annotations!
❏ Colony Counts Table - make your own or use the example in the slides!
❏ Remember to include appropriate annotations!

RESULTS - TEXT
❏ State all colony counts for each plate and which counting method was followed.
❏ Are these counts expected (do not include why or why not - this belongs in discussion).
❏ I.E.) If the Gibson Assembly went well, are these counts expected to be seen on
the experimental plate and the Control (Digested pHLsec) plate?
❏ Make a brief comparison between your control and experimental plates.

DISCUSSION
❏ What happens during the Gibson Assembly reaction?
❏ Describe the process (brief! 2-3 sentences).
❏ Why was the precise preparation for each Linear piece of DNA so necessary
(brief! 1-2 sentences) to Gibson Assembly prep.
