Week 3 - Development

Monday

Primer Design

Primers were designed to convert MelA into a biobrick. Primers A and F are for either end (including prefix and suffix - highlighted in green). The other primers surround the unwanted restiction sites (highlighted in yellow) with the changed base in red.

Orange Pigment

Used plasmid editor to examine the genes used for the production of orange pigments. The (supposedly) orange-producing pigment from the biobricks:

We also tried a preliminary design for a biobrick we could construct, in case the orange biobrick does not function. This uses the same genetic synthetic pathway for gene consruction:

Transformed Pigments

The MelA plate left on the bench overnight produced a brown-coloured pigment! Growth on media containing IPTG should produce this pigment a lot faster.

Amplification system

Activators

Found parts submitted by Cambridge '07 team amplifier project. Three translational units (ribosome binding sites and protein coding sequence) for the three activators. Sequence below.
