My projects

LacZ alpha-GFP fusion

Gemini

  • Summary
  • synBERC poster
  • Current focus
    • What is the unique application for compact (LacZa-GFP) dual reporter?
    • ��What is the dynamic range (transfer function) for the LacZa-GFP fusion construct?�
      • Sequence: understand what we have�.
      • Determine method to modulate PoPS input �(use the existing, different promoters or build with inducible promoter).
      • Set up assays �(plate reader for GFP and beta-gal)��
    • How does this compare to full length LacZ-GFP fusion, GFP, and LacZ?�
      • With information from the above in hand, determine additional work necessary to make genetically identical constructs (same promoter, RBS, reporters – from Meagan)
