General Rules• Sterile technique!!
• Report any problems to TAs ASAP (and in advance if possible)– Supply concerns (plates, media, tips, tubes, etc.)– Bad reagents
• Take good notes– This is critical for troubleshooting; help us help you.
• Cleanliness– Keep enzymes (2X Pfu, 2X Paq, Restriction Enzymes, Ligase, Phosphatase)
on ice and put them away immediately after using them.– Double-check your work area before leaving
• Tips, etc in Biotrash• Dump liquid waste in fume hood• Gels in trash, pour running buffer into the bottle, rinse / dry running apparatus• Return materials to their proper locations• Turn off all machines (NanoVue, Gel Runners)• Don’t leave lids open

Guidelines for Primer Design
• Length• Melting Temperature– %GC Content
• Primer pair (length and Tm)• 3’ GC Clamp• Extra nucleotides for restriction enzymes• No secondary structures• Avoid cross-homology
![Page 7: Primer Design and Sequencing ChE130 2015. General Rules Sterile technique!! Report any problems to TAs ASAP (and in advance if possible) – Supply concerns](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032307/56649cd75503460f9499f610/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Guidelines: Length
• Binding region (18-25 base pairs)– A tradeoff between specificity and annealing
• Oligonucleotide synthesis are 99% efficient– Max primer length will be 60bp
Length10 bases20 bases30 bases40 bases50 bases
% of Primers w/Correct Sequence(0.99)10 = 90.4% (0.99)20 = 81.8% (0.99)30 = 74.0% (0.99)40 = 66.9% (0.99)50 = 60.5%

Guidelines: Melting Temperature (Tm)
• Tm is the temperature at which 50% of the primer-target duplex dissociates
• Related to annealing temperature (Ta) for PCRs– Aim for Ta = 55-60°C, which corresponds to Tm = 60-65°C
• Many online calculators– Built-in to plasmid editors– Online: http://www.idtdna.com/analyzer/Applications/OligoAnalyzer/
• GC content 40%-60%
Can share PCR blocks if using the same PCR program!

Guidelines: Primer Pair• Forward and reverse primers should have similar
length and Tm to:– Avoid preferential amplification– Simplify PCR optimization
• Aim for:– Differences in length < 3 bases– Differences in temperature < 3°C
5’ – GCCAGGAGTGAAACGATG – 3’Forward Primer: 18nt, Tm = 53.5°C
5’ – GCCACCTTGGCCTTAGTG – 3’Reverse Primer: 18nt, Tm = 56.2°C
|Δlength| = 0|Δtemperature| = 2.7°C

Guidelines: Other Considerations
• 3’ GC Clamp– The presence of a G or C at the 3’ end promotes correct
binding due to the stronger hydrogen bonding of G and C bases
• Avoid runs and repeats– Misprime– Errors in synthesis
• Extra nucleotides for restriction enzyme (endonucleases) digestions

pZE_Plac-YPet General Workflow1. Use pZE_Plac-Ypet as both your
template DNA and as your plasmid backbone
2. Design primers to amplify Promoter and RBS region
3. Use restriction enzyme (RE) sites (BamH1, EcoR1, Kpn1, or HindIII)Note: these sites are unique, double digest compatible and give ‘sticky ends’
4. Create designed plasmid through ligation at RE sites
Sequencing primer will be provided for everyone

How does sequencing work?Sequencing primer is located ~100bp upstream of segment to be sequenced• Sequencing results are not accurate
within the first 100bp region• Accuracy also tapers off after 800-
900bpPlasmid DNA sample

Sequencing Plasmid DNA• Miniprep overnight culture of cells harboring desired plasmid • Measure concentration of plasmid DNA
– Check A260/280– Verify samples are plasmid DNA
• Carefully label tubes for samples to be sent for sequencing– At least 400 ng of plasmid– 10 µL of 10 μM sequencing primer
• If submitting more than 3 sample, add 2μL sequencing primer for each additional sample
• Prepare online form– Enclose tubes and printout in a plastic bag
• Dropbox will be located outside of Braun 16/17– Pickup is at 1pm for Retrogen– Pickup is at 9am and 3pm for Laragen

But before you sequence…• Verify plasmid DNA is plasmid DNA
and contains insert of correct length– Colony PCR– Restriction mapping– DNA gel electrophoresis
