- Proceed with analytical work and ordering DNA.
Craig and Clay
- The three parts for limonene synthesis (BBa I742111, BBa_K118024, and BBa_K118025) will be electrotransformed today. They will also be plated and grown overnight on ampicillin-selective media.
- Tomorrow colonies will be selected and grown in ampicillin-selective liquid media during the day. Later in the evening a miniprep will be performed on the grown parts.
Wetlab
Afton and Maria

Craig and Clay
- The following parts for limonene synthesis were electrotransformed into the NEB 10 beta strain of E coli: BBa_I742111, BBa_K118024, and BBa_K118025. All DNA was obtained from the distribution plates. These electrotransformed parts were then plated on ampicillin-selective plates and left to grow overnight.
