Experimental Validation
This part is validated through four ways: enzyme cutting, PCR, Sequence, and functional testing
Sequencing
This part is sequenced as correct after construction.
PCR
Methods
The PCR is performed with Premix EX Taq by Takara.
F-Prime: 5’- GAATTCGCGGCCGCTTCTAGAATGC-3’
R-Prime: 5’- GGACTAGTATTATTGTTTGTCTGCC-3’
The PCR protocol is selected based on the Users Manuel. The Electrophoresis was performed on a 1% Agarose glu. The result of the agarose electrophoresis was shown on the picture below.
Enzyme digestion test
Methods
After the assembly ,the plasmid was transferred into the Competent E. coli DH5α). After culturing overnight in LB,we minipreped the plasmid for cutting. The preparation of the plasmid was performed with TIANprep Mini Plasmid Kit from TIANGEN. The cutting procedure was performed with EcoRI and SpeI restriction endonuclease bought from TAKARA.
The plasmid was cutted in a 20μL system at 37 ℃ for 2 hours. The Electrophoresis was performed on a 1% Agarose glu.
The result of the agarose electrophoresis was shown on the picture above.
Functional Test
In vitro transcription experiment of let-7a was performed.The Electrophoresis was performed on a 2% Agarose glu.
The result of the agarose electrophoresis was shown on the picture below.
