Results
- Plate growing pSB3K3 plasmid grew well. There was no fluorescence expressed.
- Plate growing the device plasmid pSB3K3, BBa_J23102, and E0240 grew well. There was no fluorescence expressed.
Tasks
- Pick colonies and grow overnight.
- Confirm the growing colonies using GFP and RFP reporter.
- Order DNA and IPTG
- Additional promoters were designed. These possessed an up element that is proven to bind with the alpha subunit of RNAP by multiple sources.
Wetlab
