Genetic modification sounds like something that would be very complicated and difficult to do but the reality is that couldn't be further from the truth. With the right tools and techniques it's something that can be done on your kitchen table if you really wanted. In this video we explore how bacteria can easily be modified to produce a range of fluorescent proteins and even bioluminesce.

I wanted to pass on a lab tip that someone brought to our lab a few years ago that blew all our minds, and might help you out. Spreading bacteria is super easy with glass beads. I think they're the same kind that jewellers use for grinding media, they're clear, maybe 2-3 mm in diameter. Basically, you pipette your bacteria onto the selective plate, pour a small bit of beads on the plate, put the lid on, then shake the plate side to side. The beads spread the bacteria super uniformly, and you can spread many plates in parallel. Then, you can dump them out into ethanol for cleaning and re-use.

The His6 tag after the open reading frame on the plasmid encoding the red fluorescent protein is six codons encoding histidine. Histidine will bind to metal ions like Ni^2+ allowing you to separate the recombinant protein by running lysed cells on a nickel column. The recombinant protein will stick to the column and everything else will run through. The recombinant protein can then be eluted by addition of imidazole (histidine has an imidazole group in its side chain) which will compete with the histidine residues for binding to the nickel column and the recombinant protein will be pushed off of the column.

Loved this but as a microbiologist I do need to point out a few errors in your antiseptic methods. You shouldnt open eppendorf tubes with the same hand as touching the lips could contaminate the containments. 2; you should have a flame nearby to direct airflow away from plates when you're pouring media. 3; you should use a hokey stick type spreader and a spinning plate for spreading rather than Q tips :). You'd get a much better spread. There are other things like always having correct airflow (flow bench/ work near flame). Also for storing your bacteria you might be better off if you plated your bacteria and inoculated a couple of plates from which you could collect bact via loops later should u need to. I loved the video tho, keep it up :)

There was a flame going off camera in many of these shots. Also they weren't q-tips, they're individually packaged sterile swabs. I hate hockey stick spreaders honestly, the swabs work like a charm. The entire lab is a positive pressure room fed by a hepa filter, and there's a second hepa filter next to me. Also there's a massive uvc bulb above the workspace that I run occasionally to nuke the whole room. The contam on that plate was likely because I waited too long and let the media cool too much before adding the charcoal. Had gotten busy doing other stuff waiting for the autoclave to cool. Contam on the rainbow is because of how fricken long it took to make that so the open time was high. I store plated bacteria as well, but I prefer to store bacteria as stabs. That said, I keep stabs, plates and pure DNA of every plasmid I have. I was taught in school to leave lids face up on the ground if I can't hold it with my pinky, and have almost never had issues. I am looking to add a filtered air blower box/laminar flow box onto my work table to help lower contam rates even further for doing more delicate work like plant tissue culture. Thanks for the tips though and I'm glad you liked the video :)

Bruh, I'm a network engineer/cybersecurity consultant/among other things, and I've always had an interest in becoming a biohacker just never really had the time & money for it. After watching your video which has definitely calmed my anxiety of feeling overwhelmed from how complicated the process just -has to be- I realized that with my IT background this will actually be an awesome and dare I say easy hobby for me to pickup (referencing knowing how to splice a UDP/TCP packet, and its similarities to gene engineering). Definitely hit that liked button and subscribed, looking forward to watching all of your videos, and will for sure try to send some coffee funds when I could afford it (let's just say I have a list, but you've definitely been added and easily in the top 3 influencers I'd like to support when I eventually could).

This bring back memories of my graduating high school project which examined the bactericidal effect of capsaicin on a variety of skin bacteria (plenty of control flaws but I couldn’t afford a single strain of bacteria or pure capsaicin). In my study I did *plenty* of agar plates.

Why are some segments of the plasmids read backwards and some forward/on one strand Vs the other? Edit:seemingly, going by arrows
@CaptainBeardless
@CaptainBeardless 4 года назад
DNA is read in one direction-- from the phosphate end to the hydroxyl end (5' to 3'). The two strands that make up DNA run in opposite directions (anti-parallel). If you've got a double stranded DNA helix going "up and down", the "left" one is able to be read "up" and the other read "down". Since DNA is read in groups of 3, there's 3 ways to read a single strand. as an example, if you have "ATCATCATC" you can read it "ATC...ATC...ATC" or "A...TCA...TCA...TC" or "AT...CAT...CAT...C". You also have a reverse strand "TAGTAGTAG", which can be read 3 different ways. So there are 6 unique ways to read DNA. For further information, look into "reading frames"

Nice video! :) I believe that the non-transformed colonies you mention at 17:58 are perhaps not due to rapid mutations, but rather the secretion of beta-lactamase, the ampicillin resistance protein, from transformed bacteria. The antibiotics around transformed colonies will be degraded, allowing growth of non-transformed bacteria (satellite colonies). It’s a common problem using only ampicillin, although I usually see them slightly smaller after overnight incubation than on your plate. Just to be cautious, pick from the middle of your biggest colonies if you can’t select with UV or another antibiotic like carbenicillin. It will increase your odds for succes :)
