Welcome to the wiki for Boston University's iGEM 2007 Team!

Our project is aimed at increasing current production from Shewanella Oneidensis by directed evolution of global transcription factors Our plan so far:

1. Mutate global transcription factors

  a.  Design primers for amplification
  b.  Perform error-prone PCR

2. Transform mutated genes into E. coli

  a.  Choose plasmids
  b.  Restriction enzyme digestion
  c.  Ligation
  d.  Transformation into E. coli
  

3. Conjugate E. coli with Shewanella

4. Screen/select for increased current production due to mutations
