Polymerase Chain Reaction Info and Protocols
PCR is the foundation for everything we will do ever. Below are some links on the basic principles and practice of pcr; as we begin our own protocols those specific steps will be recorded here.
I would start here for a nice intro to the historical context of PCR.
The wikipedia page on PCR is good; I would skip the sections on 'variants' and history. Also their page on cloning genes into cells is good, and subcloning, all of which we'll probably end up using. And BACs and YACs.
Decent explanation and some examples of Recombinant DNA techniques.
Yeast Culture
Longterm storage and streaking protocols
Growth and manipulation of yeast
Yeast transformation protocols

Yeast Info on OWW Contains General, Protocols, Materials, and References Info - Alzar
Directed Evolution
Malaria
The malaria group has found that malaria would be a poor target as the protazoan is never found in the water during its lifecycle. Our new target is typhoid or cholera.
E. coli
check e.coli research articles
Opimization of recombitant E. coli protein expression in growth medium
