Experiments

  • To test whether the scFvs are expressed? How?
  • We need constitutive promoter with RBS upstream of it. There is one in the library available. Biobrick scFv onto RBS/promoter, and it should express. Do a western blot to see if protein expression by using FLAG tag. We need anti-FLAG antibody (ask Natalie).
