Introduction

The group proposed to discuss and investigate the working range of the parts and devices of our system

  • The proposed variables to investigate are:
    i) Concentration of activator
    ii) Time
    iii) Temperature

Characterization of Parts

We are interested in characterizing the parts

i) Lactose/IPTG sensitive Promoter pLac [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_R0010 BBa_R0010]

ii) Iron Sensitive Promoter pFe [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_I716014 BBa_I716014]

The characterization is carried out by ligating the desired promoter with the Green Fluorescence protein: [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_E0240 BBa_E02040]

  • For the pLac BBa_R0010, it is already available in the form we desired in the registry as [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_J04430 BBa_J04430]
