Agenda
9am St. John 515
- Update progress on experiments performed this week
- competent cell creation (taken 2 days), and testing results
- Part B proposals
- Grace
- Krystle
- Margaret (teleconference in from US mainland)
Minutes
Present: GK, KS, MR, SC, GP, KS, NW, LG Presentations: Grace: lux operon night light
- Discussion Points
- rbc may be too strong a promoter for use in the proposed construct
- test the strength of RBC and explore if it is leaky by creating a lacZ/GFP fusion protein
- use the fusion protein plasmid from SC, use amplifier to get the RBCL promoter, cut out the fusion site and put into pCC1383. -> 'It can be made into a biobrick if it works.'
- expression of lux as controlled by lac may not be enough without available lactose
- question: Is lactose membrane permeable for S. PCC6803? 'yes'
- may need to find a membrane permeable substance that can bind to the lac promoter
Krystle: bacterial export system, soluble proteins
- Discussion Points
- it will be best to focus on pilA and slr2016, signal sequences that have already been experimentally confirmed
Margaret: synthetic plasmid biobricks
- Discussion Points
