What We've Accomplished
Plasmid and Restriction Enzyme Choice
Week's (Ambitious) Goals
Wednesday 5/30
- Get all protocols
- Identify materials/prepare order
- Design Primers
- Learn about budget/POs
Thursday 5/31
- Do primer order
- Start conjugation practice
- Confirm restriction enzymes, ligases
- Order confirmed/needed materials
- Team Revew Meeting
- Draft Thank-You Letters for our Sponsors
Friday 6/1
- Evaluate/continue conjugation, practice electroporation for E. coli
- Revise proposal to include possibility of screening with alginate beads and fluorocytometer
- Meeting with Tim: Budgets/protocols, Pfizer/fundraising, iGEM registration, beads
Week of 6/4:
1. Evaluate the transformation that was done on Friday.
2. Confirm the correct plasmid (pJQ200)
3. Find appropriate restriction enzymes that cut by BLASTing all the plasmid's restriction enzyme sites onto the global transcription factors.
4. Re-design primers for the global transcription factors based on the restriction enzymes we have selected.
5. Order primers.
6. Practice regular (non-error prone) PCR with the primers to check that they work.
7. Incorporate the global transcription factors into the plasmid and transform this plasmid into the E.coli.
8. Conjugate this plasmid into Shewy.
