We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Gregory Gloor, for providing us with a plasmid (pUC1813ICE) which contains the ice nucleating protein gene inaZ. Prof. Dr. Gregory Gloor currently does research at the University of Western Ontario, examining the vaginal microbiome, since the number and type of bacteria in the vagina, have a profound effect on a woman's health. An article in which he uses the pUC1813ICE with inaZ can be found here.
We also want to thank Prof. Dr. Filip Rolland. He extracted genomic DNA from the Pseudomonas syringae DC3000 strain. Unfortunately, attempts to clone the INP with this template failed, possibly due to mismatches between the template and primer sequences. In addition, successfull ligation reactions were performed using a protocol optimized in his lab. Prof. Dr. Filip Rolland is a researcher and professor at the K.U. Leuven and works on plantmetabolism and the interaction with fungi.
