June 3rd, 2010 1. TEAM MEETING: Workshop report: Possible regionalization for the next year, ghost LCG-Laboratory for synthetic biology. Jamboree: November 5-8 Deadlines: Team name and logo, OpenWetWare for June 6th. Think about Human practices and Colaborations June 8th. Resources, IMJUVE and other institutions. My new goals are my old goals, I couldn’t extract the blue promoter from genomic DNA by PCR, now we’ll synthesize it, we’ll take only 50 bp from the original promoter of 86 bp, this 50 bp include the -35 an -10 boxes, one spacer between the two boxes and 2 inverted repeats. We also added 22 bp of preffix at the 5’ end, to prime a plasmid in which we’ll insert this promoter and a restriction site for SpeI at the 3’ end. Primer sequence is in the file “Minimum blue promoter.fasta” in the “Dropbox/iGEM_LCG_2010/WiFi Colli/Blue receptor” folder. When I have the promoter, I’ll ligate it to a reporter (BBa_K145015) to test functionality. Before the ligation I have to insert a RBS into the reporter because it lacks it.
