Project Summary

We are attempting to integrate a glucose controlled promoter gene (Omp-R) linked to a green flousecence producing gene (eYFP) in order to measure the concentration of glucose recquired to activate the promoter gene. Once this concentration is known, we will be attempting to mutate the Omp-R promoter gene so that it will be activated by glucose concentrations closer to those of the average human.
