Send LuxO D47A in psB1AC3 Colony 2 to get sequenced
Although RD and PCR are effective means of verifying the presence of a sequence of DNA, the gold standard for verification is DNA sequencing. LuxO D47A in psB1AC3 Colony 2 was sent to the University of Calgary DNA Sequencing Facility (University Core DNA Services, Calgary, Alberta, Canada). Primers used were VF2 (anneals near the BBK prefix on the BBK vector - used as a forward primer) and VF1 (anneals near the BBK suffix on the BBK vector - used as a reverse primer). The template was prepared such that there was 100ng/1kb of DNA (gene of interest + vector).
After analyzing the sequencing results, it was evident that luxO D47A was absent from the psB1AC3 vector. |

Continuing to Discover
This week, the island has finished processing, but we do not have permission to build yet so our second life team continues to attempt to obtain a competent understanding of manipulating objects within the various public sandboxes, mainly from the Knights Bishop public group sandbox.
We are also working on the manipulation of our avatars: Skins, which are skins worn over the avatars shaped in world by the sliders, are made in any raster based image editor capable of producing .tga files, Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, GIMP being the big ones. The skins are then uploaded and worn. Using sculpted prims (sculpties) seems to be the most promising and flexible method to manipulate an avatar’s look. I also had to do a survey to obtain $150 LD.

Marketing
I spoke to the team about logos. We discussed logo ideas and designs. Also, I contacted the Gauntlet (U of C campus newsletter) about publishing a story on iGEM. I spoke to one of the Journalists and scheduled a meeting to interview some of my teammates.
