Formal Meeting - 26th July 2010
Roll call
- Everyone present except Da, Prof. Colin Harwood, Dr Colin Davie and Dr Wendy Smith
Research feedback
- Levan glue - Levan requires sucrose to work
- Test how much sucrose is needed - Phil
- Kill switch - Use of mazE and mazF
- How much sucrose is needed for it to work?
- How fast does the bug use up all the sucrose?
- Stochastic switch - Use of hinC as the invertase
- Matt to work with Phil to work out the probability of the switching
- Have to work out what is wrong with the iGEM 2009 stochastic switch first
- Gibson protocol
- rocF to require 6 pair of primers, therefore try doing up 2 fragments first
- Protocol for yneA
- Do up the characterization separately, one bacteria to contain yneA to show filamentous, the other to have the lacI
- Could have nice photo with the different morphology on agar
- Do not shine UV light on during the gel extraction step to avoid DNA mutation
- Make up lots of DNA to allow better transformation
Lab feedback
- Arginine test - Alan and Harsh
- Test worked fine.
- Could refine the test by using universal liquid pH indicator or to use the pH meter
- DNA extraction - Harsh and Racheal
- Could only confirm the result on 27.07.2010
Wiki
- Not able to do the drop down menu with the shadow test, therefore could try using htm5
- Horizontal strip to change to purple
Visas
- Deena to travel to London on 12.08.2010
Action point
- Talk to Louela - Phil and Harsh
- Email to iGEM HQ to get stickers and badges - Harsh
- Hyperlink the protocol page to the lab notebook
- Lab wiki checker - Alan and Harsh
- Send reminder to Jen to add Jane to the mailing list - Jannetta
- Put CBCB and Biomedical school logo onto the wiki - Janetta
- Write to Chris Voigt to get the source code - Steven
- Tutorial for Inkscape - Jannetta
- To check if the extra USA visa immigration form is valid for 2 years - Jen
- Remind Neil about the MrGene logo - Steven
Next meeting
- Chair: Phil, Computer: Alan, Minutes: Rachel
- Next Wednesday, 3pm
