Welcome to the home page of the Illinois iGEM 2009 Wet Lab team! This is our second year in the iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) competition, so we are very excited. We have been working very hard, and we are sure that our project will be very successful!


For a description of our project idea, please see our Project page. Please also view our [http://openwetware.org/wiki/IllinoisSyntheticBio OpenWetWare page] to see early project development.


Our team works very closely with the Illinois Tools team. Please visit their Wiki page to view their project.

Announcements

  • 6/11--We expect to begin lab work on Monday! Four groups will be working for the next week to characterize four different sRNAs via target sequence-GFP fusions and add them to the Parts Registry.
  • 6/11--The Notebook page is now set up. Lab group pages will be set up as research begins.
  • 6/9--The Research page is now set up.
  • 6/9--We have changed a lot on the Wiki page. The Sponsors and Pictures sections, as well as the Protocols, Research, Modeling, and Parts pages, are under construction. Announcements will be posted when each page/section is set up.
  • 6/7--The Team page is now set up.
  • 6/1--The Team, Protocols, Resources, Parts, Notebook, and Pictures pages are still under construction. Please check back regularly, as announcements will be posted when these pages are set up.
  • 6/1--We are currently ordering supplies, as we will begin lab work as soon as possible. We are also continuing research on sRNAs and deciding on which model to use for our project. Testing various parts in the lab will help influence our final decision for a model to use.
