16 July

  • Focus on the last two parts in the synthesis of vanillin since that pathway has been proven
    • Can always add additional 3 paths
  • Send mail to U. Edinburgh for the proteins for vanillin synthesis [Done]
    • Received mail back from Edinburgh, biobricks of the parts should be done. Will receive answer next week

24 July

Received mail from U. Edinburgh: We will receive:

  • Sam5; no part number, Pst1 site removed
  • Sam8; coding sequence without RBS
  • ComT; coding sequence without RBS
  • ech; RBS + ech, in pSB1A2,
  • fcs; RBS + fcs, in pSB1A2,
