Sam i got something.

'''iGEM?'''

Hundreds of undergraduates all over the world spend their summer making Synthetic Biology a reality by participating in the annual International Genetically Engineered Machine competition.

Project Goals

  1. Fuse GFPuv to GhR1 (the gene corresponding with our E3 of choice).
  2. Clone GhR1-GFPuv gene into plasmid.
  3. Sequence to check.
  4. Fuse RFP to ubiquitin.
  5. Clone RFP-ubiquitin gene into separate plasmid.
  6. Sequence to check.
  7. Express proteins in the cell. They will interact with each other and the poly-ubiquitin chain will grow.
  8. Lyse the cells.
  9. Add components for binding.
  10. Run gel.
  11. Analyze gel under UV light.
  • If the protein band is tagged with GFPuv, it will be visible. The expected outcome of expression of both GFPuv and RFP is amber colored light.

Alternatives to co-transforming 2 plasmids into the cell:
a) Perform 2 transformations in 1 pET plasmid.
b) Find another plasmid that has a location to clone RFP into.
