Craig and Clay
- Since the Eidenburg team was not able to detect the presence of limonene, after transformation, we will see if we are able to use more sensitive equipment to detect its presence. The synthesized sequence for the LIM1 gene will also be studied to see if a more optimized sequence exists for E. coli. It must be noted that the Eidenburg team also deleted a target sequence at the beginning of the LIM1 gene which may have proven to be detrimental to its expression. Furthermore, the pathway that the LIM1 gene competes with may be critical to cell survival. These possible reasons will be more carefully deconstructed.

- Digestion
- Agarose Gel preparation/Electrophoresis test
- Spectrometry of Miniprepped DNA
| Part No. | A260 (nm) | A280 (nm) | A260/A280 | Volume (µL) | Conc.(µg/mL) | Amount (µg) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| pSB3K3 (1) | 0.011 | 0.010 | 1.10 | 35 | 11 | 0.385 |

| pSB3K3 (3) | 0.010 | 0.008 | 1.25 | 30 | 10 | 0.30 |
- Since it is impossible to do a successful BioBrick assembly with this small amount of concentraiton we combined all 3 vials of pSB3K3 to create a vial containing 100uL of DNA, and the Measurements were retaken
