Color Blindness (CB) Bottom Hits

We assembled the Color Blindness Bottom library, transformed it into the proper selection strain, and plated on incomplete media with varying concentrations of 3-AT. We saw colonies form, with more on the less stringent plates (NM) and fewer colonies on the higher 3-AT concentrations. Several colonies were picked and tested under varying concentrations of 3-AT in plate reader overnight, and there was a clear difference in growth between the colonies and the negative control (CB bottom binding site with Zif268). After sequencing, we identified xx novel zinc fingers!
