Week 16

  • lac promoter added to glgC and glgC16 biobricks, which were then grown overnight in LB and LB+40mM glucose.
    • Cells were subsequently resuspended in iodine reagent to test glycogen levels - results are quite promising. See Results section. (CF)
  • xylE and lacZ reporter genes added to cstA promoter, then grown overnight in LB and LB+40mM glucose.
    • xylE assays performed - results are very promising. See Results section. (CF)
  • cenA (M237~238) and cex (M233~235) biobricks confirmed. Ribosome binding sites are now being added. (CF)
  • bglX clones (M240, 247) were all wrong. Troubleshooting in progress. (CF)
  • ISA1 (M229) and ISA2 (M231) clones correct but contained messed-up suffixes. Other clones which, by digestion, seem to have intact XbaI and Spe1 sites have been submitted for sequencing. (CF)
  • Plac-dxs-lims-appY device is ready to test. Hope to do next week if the GC is available. (CF)
  • Attempts to make crt construct failed for some unexplained reason - apparently no DNA in the ligations. (CF)
