Week 15 (22~28 September 08)

  • Clones for ISA1/zm1 (M229) and ISA2/zm2 (M230, 231, 232) obtained.
    • These have the internal EcoRI as expected so they are probably the right genes but should be sequenced to confirm that the ends are intact.
    • M229 (ISA1) and M231 (ISA2) submitted for sequencing. (CF)
  • Clones for cex mutant (M233, 234, 235) obtained.
    • These clearly do not have the internal PstI site.
    • M233 submitted for sequencing. (CF)
  • Candidate clones for cenA (M237, 238) obtained.
    • These seem to possess the expected internal SalI sites.
    • One of these has been submitted for sequencing. (CF)
  • Candidate clones for bglX (M240, 247) obtained.
    • Submitted for sequencing but not so confident about these: the ratio of white to blue colonies was very low. There might be a problem with the restriction site in one of the primers.
  • rbs added to glgC and glgC16; cloned as M243 and M245. Both submitted for sequencing. (CF)
  • lac promoter (J33207) added to dxs+lims+appY Biobrick.
    • Does not smell of lemons but E. coli has a strong smell so this might not be significant.
    • Arranged for GC to be done to test for limonene production. (CF)
  • Ligation and transformation to add crtBI upstream of dxs+crtE. Minipreps to be done.
    • None of the patches are pink, but then, there is no promoter. (CF)
  • C. fimi genomic DNA submitted for sequencing. (CF)
