STORM imaging – multi-color chromatin

  • O/N imaging of F5 F6 lost focus very early in night.
  • O/N imaging buffer also did not survive well

Re-imaging F11 F12

  • new freshly made Glox
  • 2.5 uL BME + 5 uL COT
  • 750 still nice and bright in these samples
  • 750 imaging looks great at 60 Hz. Should totally drop the 30 hz approach
  • Added fresh beads. beads still bleaching rapidly.
  • trying to match z-offset better. Currently shooting for 100 nm offset (according to Hal’s measurements, not sure about the calibration quality on this system at present)

Re-imaging G1 G2

  • getting new images with hopefully better signal in both channels
  • 750 conventionals look kinda weak, but the STORM seems to be working out pretty well.
  • 2.5 uL BME + 5 uL COT, 60 Hz.
  • some issues with Hal freezing. Might be me trying to copy data

STORM analysis

  • analyzing new F11 F12 data locally on Monet (just 3 positions)
  • serious issues getting the beads to be bright. But I’d rather have bright dyes than bright beads.
  • start analysis of Bx-C data on Cajal.

Library Design

errors in sublibrary 59:

   Start 59__Disco_region_highly-interacting_TAD_(Y[G[K)__chrXC16481008-16544222_pt52
  Running Blast (-e 0.0)... For sequence 59__Disco_region_highly-interacting_TAD_(Y[G[K)__chrXC16481008-16544222_pt52, the following exception was caugth: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -2

Seems to stem from overly long file name. Shortened name, looks like its running now.

Pruning list, remove BX-C pieces (looks like I got the pieces from Lib2 working, will still be nice to have the whole thing available as a single shot as well). Remove some of the very low represented genes.
