Donny

I switched the database over from sqlite to mysql so that it can run smoothly with Dr. Bhalerao's server. In this process, I got a chance to verify and utilize Nate's new updater scripts. In addition, I was able to get a more updated version of the network built that incorporated any changes in Kegg.

Riyad

Wrote a biobrick program that analyzes a sequence for biobrick restriction enzyme sites and then adds the associated prefix and suffix

Palak

I looked at some final features we could add to our program given the time that we have left. We are all busy with school now, it's been hard trying to find time to finish our project. I determined that creating a stochiometric matrix should be feasible. I also gathered some of our old resources and began documenting them in the resources section of our wiki.

Nate

I finished writing the gene data updater script. It was difficult, but I was able to get it done. Once I finished this, I sent this and the enzyme data updater script to Donny for tweaking and integration into our webtool

Kanishka

Helped write proposal and future changes to our project for potential donors and organizations that could support us.
