Confirmed successful ligation of pBad and I746350, I746351, I746352.

Wet Work

Threshold Devices

Attempted the following standard assemblies:

pBad + I746350 to B0015

pBad + I746351 to B0015

pBad + I746352 to B0015

I746351 to B0015

I746352 to B0015

I746352 to B0015

The first three will be used to construct a complete device, with pBad as the sensor promoter and a pigment operon as the pigment-generating device. The pigment we chose for our proof of concept will be placed downstream of each of the 5 phage promoters, and then combined to give 15 combinations of activators and promoters, giving the construction below. We still need to decide which pigment to use for our proof of concept.

The second three will be used to construct a library of threshold devices which can be abstracted to black boxes with PoPS in and PoPS out:
