Notebook Overview

Find the notebooks regarding our subgroups below. They show our daily work in chronological order. Summarized strategies, plans and results are found in the project or the HEARTBEAT section respectively. Note that we used abbreviations especially for plasmids and oligos. Find a more detailed description of those in the material section.

• Natural Promoter project:

In this subproject we cloned natural promoters from a variety of sources (e. g. other research groups). We chose promoters that are somewhat specifically inducible. We then tested conditions that we found in literature to induce those promoters. Some of those experiments helped us to determine the induction conditions for our own synthetic promoters.

• Synthetic Promoter project:

This was one of our largest subprojects. During the first few weeks of this year's iGEM we mostly worked on DNA synthesis and cloning of those promoters. Later on, the focus shifted to screening and characterizing those promoters as described in the methods and measurement sections.

• Cell Culture, Promoters.
  

• Stable Cell Line project.
  

• Multi-color Output project.
  

• HEARTBEAT project:

The notebook of the HEARTBEAT (Heidelberg Artificial Transcription Factor Binding Sites Assembly and Engineering Tool) project comprises the work on three sublanes: HEARTBEAT database (DB), HEARTBEAT graphical user interface (GUI) and HEARTBEAT fuzzy modeling (FN) as well as some additional work on logo as well as wiki design.

• Measurement project.
