beta-pinene

  • PCR off the synthase using yeast primers (contains XhoI and SpeI restriction enzyme sites) in order to put into the yeast plasmid
  • PCR off the synthase using biobrick primers (contains EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI, PstI restriction enzyme sites) in order to put into psb1C3
  • Gel verification for both PCRs shows bands at the correct length

(-)-limonene

  • PCR off the synthase using yeast primers (contains SpeI and NotI restriction enzyme sites) in order to put into the yeast plasmid
  • Gel veriification shows 4 bands - PCR failed
  • SDM PCR the synthase using new primers
