Experiments

Details of the experiments carried out throughout the project are linked from this page. These experiments should also be linked to from the appropriate diary page.

Preliminary Exercise

Initial exercise during our 2 weeks crash course in synthetic biology with the aim of familiarising us with common laboratory methods of preparing and assembling DNA.

Main Project - 'Bactiridescence'

Extraction of Genomic DNA for PCR

Reflectin genes were amplified directly from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loligo Loligo] tissue. Tissue from the Loligo genus was commercially available from fishing bait suppliers and culinary wholesalers. Primers were designed from the nucleotide sequences of three reflectin proteins identified in L. pealei, and used in a PCR reaction upon L. vulgaris genomic DNA.
