[DIYbio] Re: extracting DNA from bacteria

huh, so it actually works. That's definitely cheaper than a kit. Thanks for sharing!

RE: [DIYbio] Re: Perth (Australia) Group

G'day all,

 

Fortuitously, I'm moving back to Perth today and might tag along on Saturday if that's alright?

 

Cheers,

Hi Benedict, Philip, Leon and all other Perth based Outsider Biologists.

This Saturday the 3rd, 2pm at the Artifactory looks interesting.
Oron Catts, Christine, Ito and myself from SymbioticA UWA will be attending to check things out.

Looking forward to it.

Hey all,

 

Just a reminder that we've got a meeting at Artifactory this Saturday (3rd) at 2pm - all are welcome. Leon will be walking us through building a magnetic stirrer (I'll bring some liquid cultures to be stirred). I was hoping we'd get to use the laser cutter to create some equipment but I need to get some training and the acrylic we need is on order - we'll do it next time instead.

 

If anyone else has something they'd like to share, please bring it along.

 

Cheers,

Benedict

Hi All,

 

Andrew - thanks for the kind words. Student engagement and the whole atmosphere seems to be more energetic at UWA than when I was an undegrad : I have high hopes for the new bioengineering and data science degrees, and all that will come with it. Thanks for taking the time to mentor and nurture us, really appreciated.

 

Steve - are you very active at the Arifactory? I'm asking because I'm really interested in checking out the space.

 

With biohack academy: there was the first organiser's conference call last Tuesday.

It will run from the 31st Jan 2017 for 10 weeks. Each week we would be expected to put in no less than 25 hours (2hrs lectures+2hrs discussion \ 5 hrs organisation \ 16 hours in a lab/makerspace) - this is the first hurdle.

The second hurdle is the costs. For recommended ~10 participants per 2 organisers, the costs are roughly $1k per head. $10k total. Not many people, especially students, have that kind of money, especially if they are giving up so much time.

I'm applying for funding from the UWA to cover most of the costs. I've started outlining a detailed budget estimate - I'll share it once it is done, and we'll see if there is space to trim.

Third is space - we need 3 days\week access to a somewhat clean lab with basic sink/fridge/labcoats etc. This is the least of the problems as there are a few places where we may be able to do it.

 

Cheers

Philip

Hi All. Anyone interested in a meetup in the near future? There seem to be 3-4 different diyBio/maker related groups and projects in Perth, running somewhat independently (and on different social media and team comms apps). It would be good to join in collective efforts.

 

Also, would anyone be keen on participating in the BiohackAcademy 2017 (~30Jan17 for 2.5 month), if I start looking at feasibility and sorting logistics to host it in Perth?

[DIYbio] Re: extracting DNA from bacteria

thanks guys! A few people also sent me private messages recommending the colony PCR route as well, so colony PCR I shall try. 


@Cathal
Thanks! I have developed a odd relationship with these bacteria. They are just so cool. The Odin tutorial on e. coli transformed with pVIB said that they like cool and dark, so I left one of my cultures at room temp at my lab desk and another in the fridge wrapped in aluminum foil, and the later was brighter. I didn't know that they "officially" don't like light and it's definitely something interesting to experiment with. In terms of the squishy gel extraction method, where does the dna end up? The Odin kit came with the green dye 

@koeng
avoiding the use of gels would help me keep the cost down haha but how do I go around confirming and cleaning out the DNA? Do the PCR clean up kit and hope there's something in there? It would be a bummer to send the result of a failed PCR reaction in for sequencing :(

@Patrick
Doh! a direct link from the page I was at... thanks for pointing it out. I think I'll take the opportunity to learn and practice lab skillz.

Should I be able to get PCR-able DNA out with dish detergent and ethanol/isopropanol?  Any good protocols that are DIY friendly? 

on a side note, does anyone have either a) good DIY gel purification method or b) someone that will sell kits to ronin-hackers (do not belong to any institution)?

[DIYbio] Re: extracting DNA from bacteria

The Odin actually links to a very simple protocol for 16s rDNA PCR, from the page that you referenced:


They're actually recommending to scrape a single colony straight into the PCR reaction. No separate DNA extraction step whatsoever - how simple can you get?

If you're more interested in getting the answer asap than in teaching yourself how to do 16S PCR, many sequencing services will also do 16S PCR and sequencing straight from a colony or liquid culture.

Re: [DIYbio] extracting DNA from bacteria

I'd recommend to just avoid gels altogether. Restriction enzymes are great, but gel purification just kills that method for me. I always gibson/goldengate, with one of the main reasons I hate cutting gels. i don't know if it is just the kit I use, but I always end up with highly salted un-pure DNA. If anyone knows of a good kit to purify DNA from gels, I'd love to know what it is. 

@Cathal I am actually going to try the method with filter paper. I will report back in a while if it works or not.

Congratulations on your new glowing minions! :)

Watch out for a small gotcha with V.phosphoreum; at least with the strain that I isolated years back, when grown under light they do not glow. They need to be insulated from the light to produce the luciferin. Whether this was photobleaching or transcriptional regulation, I do not know; would make an interesting (and perhaps publishable) project, though. Even finding out which frequencies it responds to would be fun.

For DNA extraction, you're dealing with a gram-negative without much peptidoglycan, so there are plenty of handy options. Classic alkaline lysis will work, as would ultra-dirty "boiling lysis" methods, and in either case you should get plenty of 16S to work with IMO. I won't comment on the procedure for 16S identification itself because I've never done it. Just make sure you clean up any detergent and salt from your prep method; dishwashing detergent for example may have tons of unidentified enzyme inhibitors, and good luck getting the company to tell you what's in it! Ethanol is apparently better than isopropanol for de-salting DNA after extraction, I'm not sure how it compares on detergents.

I'm *told* that the best gel extraction method is to slice your DNA fragment out as small as you can make it, then put it in a PCR tube with a hole cut in the end and some filter paper covering the hole..then spin it inside a larger tube in a centrifuge, so the gel fragment gets squished flat and the liquid escapes into the larger tube. I have also never done this, however. :)

The best advice I can give for gel extraction is..never, ever use Ultraviolet. Not even once. Go blue or go home. :) So, SYBR dyes or similar would be fine, but an Ultraviolet dye will lead to shredded DNA and poor PCR outcomes.

Re: [DIYbio] extracting DNA from bacteria

Congratulations on your new glowing minions! :)

Watch out for a small gotcha with V.phosphoreum; at least with the strain that I isolated years back, when grown under light they do not glow. They need to be insulated from the light to produce the luciferin. Whether this was photobleaching or transcriptional regulation, I do not know; would make an interesting (and perhaps publishable) project, though. Even finding out which frequencies it responds to would be fun.

For DNA extraction, you're dealing with a gram-negative without much peptidoglycan, so there are plenty of handy options. Classic alkaline lysis will work, as would ultra-dirty "boiling lysis" methods, and in either case you should get plenty of 16S to work with IMO. I won't comment on the procedure for 16S identification itself because I've never done it. Just make sure you clean up any detergent and salt from your prep method; dishwashing detergent for example may have tons of unidentified enzyme inhibitors, and good luck getting the company to tell you what's in it! Ethanol is apparently better than isopropanol for de-salting DNA after extraction, I'm not sure how it compares on detergents.

I'm *told* that the best gel extraction method is to slice your DNA fragment out as small as you can make it, then put it in a PCR tube with a hole cut in the end and some filter paper covering the hole..then spin it inside a larger tube in a centrifuge, so the gel fragment gets squished flat and the liquid escapes into the larger tube. I have also never done this, however. :)

The best advice I can give for gel extraction is..never, ever use Ultraviolet. Not even once. Go blue or go home. :) So, SYBR dyes or similar would be fine, but an Ultraviolet dye will lead to shredded DNA and poor PCR outcomes.

Should I be able to get PCR-able DNA out with dish detergent and ethanol/isopropanol? Any good protocols that are DIY friendly?
on a side note, does anyone have either a) good DIY gel purification method or b) someone that will sell kits to ronin-hackers (do not belong to any institution)?
as always, thanks!

[DIYbio] Re: Perth (Australia) Group

Hey all,

Just a reminder that we've got a meeting at Artifactory this Saturday (3rd) at 2pm - all are welcome. Leon will be walking us through building a magnetic stirrer (I'll bring some liquid cultures to be stirred). I was hoping we'd get to use the laser cutter to create some equipment but I need to get some training and the acrylic we need is on order - we'll do it next time instead.

If anyone else has something they'd like to share, please bring it along.

Cheers,
Benedict

Hi All,

Andrew - thanks for the kind words. Student engagement and the whole atmosphere seems to be more energetic at UWA than when I was an undegrad : I have high hopes for the new bioengineering and data science degrees, and all that will come with it. Thanks for taking the time to mentor and nurture us, really appreciated.

Steve - are you very active at the Arifactory? I'm asking because I'm really interested in checking out the space.

With biohack academy: there was the first organiser's conference call last Tuesday.
It will run from the 31st Jan 2017 for 10 weeks. Each week we would be expected to put in no less than 25 hours (2hrs lectures+2hrs discussion \ 5 hrs organisation \ 16 hours in a lab/makerspace) - this is the first hurdle.
The second hurdle is the costs. For recommended ~10 participants per 2 organisers, the costs are roughly $1k per head. $10k total. Not many people, especially students, have that kind of money, especially if they are giving up so much time.
I'm applying for funding from the UWA to cover most of the costs. I've started outlining a detailed budget estimate - I'll share it once it is done, and we'll see if there is space to trim.
Third is space - we need 3 days\week access to a somewhat clean lab with basic sink/fridge/labcoats etc. This is the least of the problems as there are a few places where we may be able to do it.

Cheers
Philip

Hi Philip,

Thanks for reaching out! I've involved with the Artifactory group
The Biohack academy sounds amazing! What would it take to make it happen?

It sounds like there will be another Artifactory meet-up in September, it would be great to collaborate!

-Steve

[cross-post from facebook]

Hi All. Anyone interested in a meetup in the near future? There seem to be 3-4 different diyBio/maker related groups and projects in Perth, running somewhat independently (and on different social media and team comms apps). It would be good to join in collective efforts.

Also, would anyone be keen on participating in the BiohackAcademy 2017 (~30Jan17 for 2.5 month), if I start looking at feasibility and sorting logistics to host it in Perth?

Also, anyone keen on doing the upcoming GovHack? https://www.govhack.org/

Cheers,
Philip
