The Initiator

Starting Up

  • Hydrated parts: BBa_B0034, BBa_C0051, BBa_B0015, BBa_R0082.
  • Transformed these parts into DH5α competent cells.


Ligating RBS to BBa_C0051


  • Ligate the RBS and BBa_C0051 together and transform into competent cells.


Assembly notes
  • It is most practical to cut RBS as a vector because RBS is less than 100 bp long as an insert, making it hard to see and extract on the gel.
  • The sticky ends from the XbaI and SpeI, when ligated together, will form an 8 bp scar.
