·Acquire pET-Duet plasmid as the future expression vector
·Ttart to prepare the paralleled lysosome signal part
·Get the 2nd-round PCR product of riboswitch advancing and purify the product
·The transformation results in not so good, bacterial colony grows too tiny and thick ,but we still think it will work

2012.8.26
·Retry the PCR for the second and the third round
·The primer may out of work
·Reorder the primer to be synthesized
·Pick the signal and positive colony of 1st riboswitch
