| - | <u>'''Jason'''</u>:<br>
| |
| - | <ul><li> Started investigating the Cry1 blue light detection pathway
| |
| - | <li> Started to build the LUX operon plant biobrick
| |
| - | <li> Went to Dougs awesome Modeling Course</ul><br>
| |
| - | <u>'''James'''</u>:<br>
| |
| - | <ul><li>Checked all O/N's set up by SZ and WX - all grew except 023 WX. Will set up again tonight.<br>
| |
| - | <li>Followed standard Qiagen miniprep protocol for all o/n's.</ul><br>
| |
| - |
| |
| - | <u>'''Winnie''' and '''Saima'''</u>:
| |
| - | <ul><li>Digested J61003 using Xba and Pst
| |
| - | <li>Digested minipreps of last year's genes using Xba and Pst
| |
| - | <li>Began sequencing the o/n minipreps</ul>
| |

| |
| - | <u>'''Chris'''</u>:
| |
| - | Got the results back from the thiolase gene sequencing. Chromatograms look good; unfortunately the sequence doesnt seem to be correct. I BLASTed the sequences and came up with Acetyl-CoA Acetyltransferase. Very odd indeed.

| - | ==The Good and Bad news==
| |
| - | <u>'''The Good News'''</U><br>
| |
| - | Our system will work in E.coli<br>
| |
| - | <u>'''The Bad News'''</U><br>
| |
| - | In 2004 Texas submitted the cyanbacterial equivalent of our system, so... Our biobricks would be unique but they would do the exact same thing.<br>
| |
| - | <u>'''The Good News'''</U><br>
| |
| - | I looked up a very promising pathway that detects blue light instead<br>
| |
| - | <u>'''The Bad News'''</U><br>
| |
| - | I can only find a summary of the paper... Here is the link to it

| - | ==Lab Tip of the Day==
| |
| - | When using the NanoVu to measure your DNA concentration, please ensure that you press the ''measure'' button and not the ''calibration'' button. Also, remember that the instructions for using the NanoVu are posted above the NanoVu. Please refer to these instructions in times of doubt instead of getting Chris to do it for you.
