After letting the transformation solutions sit out overnight, there are enough cells to do bead plating. Bead plated control (pUC19), LacZalpha, and LacY genes, and let incubate at 37C o/n.
Found via email from Chris French (Edinburgh) that RFP will make a visible red color. Therefore, we don't need any fancy MacConkey agar combined with a lac operon. Yay!
Revision 10385: First reporter = phr + RFP, 2nd reporter = SOS (recA) + LacZ. We'll still put X-gal in the substrate.
