+ | To successfully produce the components of saffron - i. e. crocin and safranal - it is necessary to ensure that the genes required produce their proper proteins. Thus, we inserted our constructs into <i>E. coli</i> and characterized the protein production of these genes to ensure that we had working biobricks. | ||
