Page Comparison

We are expecting little to no difference. So, we will proceed with actual template, but the smaller PCR pool. We will compare via qPCR and bioanalyzer.

Templates:

Restriction Digestion

(Keep MM and reaction plates on ice)

...

Add 6 ul template to each plate with Benchsmart. Cover and seal each plate, vortex, centrifuge and incubate at 37C for 8 hours. Followed by 65C for 1 hour. Do 1 set on 2 thermocyclers and 1 set in incubator (Somebody will have to return in 8 hours).

Adaptor Ligation

Spin down plates and add 1.4 ul Ligation MM to each well with 8 channel.

...

Label reaction plates with MID plate used.

Cover, vortex, and spin plates. Incubate thermocycler plate at 16C for 6 hours. Incubate incubator plate at RT for 2 hours.

Add 189 120 ul of low EDTA TE store at 4C for a month or -20C for longer.

PCR Amplification

Create the two pools below using 20uL from ligated plates matching well to well.

PCR1:

...

*pause step

Extra PCR

Add 2.125 ul of the MM directly to the previous PCR

Comparisons

qPCR

• Make 1:1000 dilutions of column 3 from the PCR plates by adding 1 ul to 999 ul TE in a deep well plate:

• Combine 5uL from each well of GBS10-11_PCR_A into a pool. Make a 1:1000 dilution of this pool to run on qPCR.

• Combine 5uL from each well of GBS10-11_PCR_B into a pool. Make a 1:1000 dilution of this pool to run on qPCR.

• After 1:1000 pools have been made for each PCR plate, combine PCR_A and PCR_B undiluted pools together into one tube and label GBS10-11. Make a 1:1000 dilution of this pool to run on qPCR.

• Add 16 ul of Illumina Library Quantification MasterMix to each well:
