PUT STUFF HERE.Parts Constructed
Type: Regulatory Length: 1275
This part encodes a promoter with low-level, constitutive activity that can be repressed by variants of the LacI transcriptional repressor. Repression by LacI-KRAB through chromatin packing is quite effective.

Our instructors were very helpful not only in giving feedback on our designs, cloning strategies, and data, but also in training us for lab work. The training for tissue culture work was conducted by Linda Stockdale in the Griffiths lab. Gibson assembly techniques and FACS training from Deepak Mishra, one of our instructors.
Other than the initial training, all work was done by our undergraduate team.
Special credit belongs to Semon Rezchikov and Jenny Cheng for simulations and modeling, and Tiffany Huang for wiki design.
