Both Rebecca's and Rachel's plates for GFP looked a little dodgy. Rebecca's had not grown at all whereas, Rachel's had but the colonies were rather large. The RFP colonies looked good. However, after double checking in the parts registry, we realised that these BioBricks have no RBS and therefore, we decided to keep these plates for now and went back to the previous BioBricks used with RFP, GFP and CFP. |
. Russell, Rebecca and Khadija used ''Pst''1 and ''Xba''1 to do a double restriction digest of RFP, GFP and CFP that we previously used. We decided that despite the backbone fragment seemingly being too large, we would try it out. | .
