- Transformation
- About 16 kinds of parts
We transform these following 14 parts today. B0015 Plate 1 23L S03878 Plate2 16M C0179 Pate 2 8MC0070 Plate2 12HF1610 Plate2 24G B0034 Plate1 2M I0462 Plate1 8OC0078 Plate1 14DC0077 Plate1 14AI1466 Plate1 23J

Design genetic circuits
We have thus far focused our attention on signaling molecules used in quorum sensing systems of bacteria. The ones we will be using are as shown below:
*Inducer ⇒(synthesize) Signal molecule ⇒ Receptor
* LuxI ⇒ 3OC6HSL ⇒ LuxR → positive regulation * LasI ⇒ AI-1(3OC12HSL) ⇒ LasR → positive regulation * CinI ⇒ 3OH,C14:1-HSl ⇒ CinR → positive regulation * RhlI ⇒ AI-1(C4HSL) ⇒ RhlR → positive regulation * AgrB synthesizes AIP from AgrD ⇒ AIP diffuses and attaches to AgrC ⇒ AgrC phosphorylates
and activates AgrA which then promotes transcription at P2 and P3 promoters.
From now on,We have to do what I mention below 1.Investigate other cell-cell comunication systems (besides those used in quorum-sensing). 2.Check to ensure that system components are working properly. 3.Create new systems or implement additional cell functions. 4.Investigate the possibility and extent of cross talk between various signaling molecules. reported by Tadasi Nakamura
