          Front: Black characters, with the sundial and the bauhinia color changed to red
          Back: Add Hong Kong's Chinese characters

Lab Work

  • Jingjing's design:

http://openwetware.org/wiki/Image:Latest_version_Sep.7.doc

  • Progress: GFP changed to Peking U.'s and primers were ordered, which will be arrived on Monday. Meanwhile, Jingjing and Jean are still trying to use other parts extracted from the DNA book as template.
  • Plan for next two weeks:
    • After primers arrive, Winnie starts to conduct PCR to amplify GFP part and RFP part.
    • Then, Qing ligates both sides together.
    • Sylvia conducts deletion PCR to delete the enzyme cutting site between two promoters and also constructs other trials of overlapping promoters.
    • Jingjing and Jean: Left and Right test

Simulation

By Jiahui

Parameters are needed:

  1. diffusion rate of T7 polymerase and two repressors (Jean)
  2. affinity of binding: T7 polymerase and two repressors (Sylvia)
  3. transcription and translation rate: T7 polymerase and two repressors (Winnie)
  4. degradation rate: T7 polymerase and two repressors (Qing)

Preparation of Jamboree

  • starts preparation of presentation on Jamboree
  • 3 people, 20 slides within 15min
  • on Sep. 20, the background part should be presented (Jiahui)
  • team wiki website--by high school studetns (taking photos)
