 Cloning of PCR product successful: in progress
 Sequencing of cloned PCR product successful: not done
 Joining of validated part to adjacent part(s) status: not done
 Problems to be solved: to be determined
 Current status of this part: PCR was being troubleshooted, appeared to
 have good results with regular PCR protocol (not touchdown) in which
 there was a constant annealing temperature of 55 degrees C - see gel

 Cloning of PCR product successful: in progress
 Sequencing of cloned PCR product successful: not done
 Joining of validated part to adjacent part(s) status: not done
 Problems to be solved: to be determined
 Current status of this part: Both PCR protocols (touchdown and second
 PCR with constant annealing temperature) produced product of the
 correct size. BBa_K110016 was used as a control in the second PCR with
 BBa_K110008.
 Status report by Allison and Nate
 Part no.: BBa_K110008
 Part Description: MFA1 (L+R)
 Part Location: same as above, plates are at 4 degrees refrigerator near front door
