Contents

5:30 Action points from last meeting:

  • Alisa: Wiki "Parts_used status" up to date? -(outstanfding from 19/7/07)
  • Jan: Lecture Timetables spread sheet complete: attached.
  • Phil: Status of #BBa-M30109 & #BBa-V1012 = "will ship this week".
  • Jan: Production of sequence for blue light receptor? " -designed

5:45 Status Reports: (5 minutes each including any discussion)

  • Alisa: Ligation experiments progress.
    • Problem: 1.2KB genes between biobrick forward & reverse primers not being visualised in colony PCR with 1.5min extn time. (300bp fragments do amplify)
      • - craig to try and repeat.
      • - Alisa: has digestion in progress as alternative diagnostic to prove if problem is ligation or PCR.
      • - Alisa: believes alkaline phosphatase damage is cause of problem.
  • Alisa: Red light receptor progress/design/plan- needs.
    • Plan to be completed to be put on wiki this week, estimated at six weeks duration.
    • Phil would like to see lacZ coliphotography parts available for tests due to higher sensitivity of enzyme output.
  • Jan: Blue light receptor design/plan - needs.
    • design completed, Plan to be completed and put on wiki this week -Jan
    • Theory to be put on the wiki this week - Jan,-Alisa to review
    • ComA to be ordered by tuesday under discount plan
    • ComP fusion to be ordered ASAP.
  • Phil: Gas vesicles progress/design/plan - needs.
    • Plan up to basic biobrick complete,
    • Primers not requested for Friday delivery so cant proceed this week end.
    • Mutagenesis primers will be redesigned by hand for delivery next Friday.
    • Biobrick prefix/sufix primers to be designed this week.
    • Plan for support parts/test harness required.
    • Some items require ordering,round bottom falcon tubes, or manufacture NZY broth, blue/white plate.
    • Lac promotor and antibiotic death plasmids required.

.


Documentation wiki status:

    • Priority should be on plans and experimental report analysis and conclusions-----Alisa .
    • If only Pat & Alisa doing lab work not much documentation needed.
    • Equipement:
      • MissingLas3000 method (in lab notebook)
      • Missing DNA measurement protocol (eppendorf)
    • Reagents pages incomplete:
      • Some location pictures not finished or uploaded.
      • Some newer reagents not entered.
    • Secondary reagents pages not made:
      • LB, Plates, TAE , NZY+ Broth
    • Protocol part:
      • No connections from Protocols to reagents.
      • Ligation protocol missing
    • Lab notebook:
      • Format uses too many lines to see connections between days.
      • Latter part missing links
      • Can table of contents be restricted to date level?
    • Experimental reports:
      • Lacks discussion/conclusion
      • Ligation experiment missing
      • Lattest few gells not marked up and entered.
    • Project overview link broken
    • Background:
      • GFP missing ,
      • Red photo sensor to GFP test harness missing.
    • Plan: Only Gas vesicles plan entered.
