Week 8: 8/1/10 through 8/7/10

  • Light sensor: light sensor may have been completed, as Parts A&B&C may have been ligated together. However, we found that the complete part may be questionable, as when we digested them, we find that they are not the right lengths.

  • ON switch progress: All colonies turned red. . Spooky transcription returs. Will continue w/ part regardless. Also, begin next portion:
  • I12006-B0034-C0051-B0034-E1010-F1610
  • I12006 will be cut with Spe & Pst; B0034-C0051-B0034-E1010-F1610 (also known as K327001) will be cut with Xba & pst

  • OFF switch
  • Starting off with new digestions, attempting with the fast digest procedure
  • I12006 (ES)-K327001 (EX)
  • B0034 (ES)-C0052 (EX)-I746352 (SP)-B0034 (XP)-C0040 (ES)-B0015 (EX)
