Week Four

June 8th- 17th

What are we trying to do?

We want the bacteria to lyse, to kill itself from the inside.

Well then, to do that we had to get a lysis gene in it. The thing is, with the lysis gene needs to be turned on by this specific substance called a promoter

There are two kinds of promoters, ones that make the gene they're attached to , be 'on' all the time. Then, you have ones that turn on when you want them to, in our case, when you add a mystery enzyme.

Our Step-wise Process:

How we tried to do this:

[http://hackteria.org/wiki/index.php/Step_2_-_Transforming_competent_cells Step 2 - Transforming competent cells]

Step 3 - Picking a single colony.

Step 4 - Inoculating broth with Ampicillin-R (an antibiotic) and letting it grow for 18 hours.

Step 5 - Using the resulting culture for [http://hackteria.org/wiki/index.php/Mini-prep. mini-prep.] - a process used to purify plasmids and yields clean, usable DNA.

Step 6 - [http://hackteria.org/wiki/index.php/Digesting_the_DNA Digesting the DNA]
