 * Transformations of L20 (pSB1A2+rbs+appY) and L21 (pSB1A2+rbs+crtB), plates 63-66, failed.
 * Transformation of L25 (pSB1A2+glgC-mut1,2) to plates 67-68 (Yan)
 * Cut out putative cenA and cex (both ~1.5kb) fragments from gel 27 (repeat of Gel 26 but stained with SYBRsafe). Purified DNA from gel fragments. (AM)
 * Digests of M49-M54 (pSB1A2+rbs+crtI) with EcoRI alone. This should generate a single 4 kb band (doing an EcoRI/PstI double digest would give a vector and insert band both around 2 kb, which would probably run at the same place, making it hard to tell whether there was an insert). These were run on Gel 28. All showed a single band at the expected place. (CF)
 * Minipreps of pSB1A2+PzntA (M55-M60) from L23, pSB1A2+rbs+crtE (M61-M66) from L22 and pSB1A2+rbs+crtB (M67) from L21. (Yan, Nimisha)
 * Double digests of M55-M66 with EcoRI/PstI. This should generate the following bands: ~2.2 kb for PzntA (M55-M60), ~1.1 kb for rbs+crtE (M61 to M66), and ~2 kb for the pSB1A2 vector. These were run on Gel 29. M55-M60 unsuccessful; M61-M66 showed a band at the expected location for rbs+crtE but seemed to indicate that L22 was still ligated into BABEL2 instead of pSB1A2. (Yan, AM)
