The Initiator

Starting Up

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


RBS to BBa_C0051


  • Ligate the RBS and BBa_C0051 fragments together and transform on carb plates.
  • Depending on the outcome of visible colonies on the experimental and control plates, a PCR screening may be needed.


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. Thus, XbaI and SpeI will no longer be able to cut here.

'RBS & BBa_C0051' to Terminator

  • Cultured cells that have parts: 'RBS & BBa_C0051', BBa_B0015
  • Miniprepped 'RBS & BBa_C0051' and BBa_B0015


  • Ligate the RBS and BBa_C0051 fragments together and transform on carb plates.
  • Depending on the outcome of visible colonies on the experimental and control plates, a PCR screening may be needed.
