@ATinyGreenCell This happened to a friend of mine, but it was an unannonated critical 4 bases critical for expression. Discovered months later after rounds of yeast experiments with no effect 😭

A great teaching moment here for genetic design students: NEVER assume any annotation that just says "promoter" and always inspect the elements along with the publication where said genetic part was designed/discovered no matter how long ago the article was written.

Arrg, 3bp messed up my experiments lol. I was having problems getting any expression from this UBQ1 promoter from lotus, and it turns out the promoter is actually promoter+exon1+INTRON where the YAG acceptor is CRITICAL for proper splicing. Wasted 1 month on 3bp; fixed it now. 🤦‍♂️

Putting this together was easier than RE cloning 😅 - thanks to @GenScript!

Excited to kick off another year teaching the practical component of BioE300: Introduction to Genetic Engineering of Algae! Proud to still wear my badge from ACPFG's "Get Into Genes" program. Here's to another amazing semester! 🌱🧫 🦠✨

Ah, turns out to be unrelated. Our bot needed a device reset. Wasn't clear from the logs 🙄

Sent off plasmids for sequencing to @plasmidsaurus last Thursday. Data back today! So quick! Even after travelling ~11,100 km(~7000 mi/freedom units) 🤯🤯

Much more comfortable being behind the camera with BioE300 students in the SSB lab today 😅 PhD students/TAs @razanzyahya & Malak taking them & @tk_ozawa through #Chlamy transformations 🧫

Doing an initial sweep of the blue substance that oozed out of the #BlueSoup swab sample. I rung out the swab in DH2O and spun down twice to remove debris. Interesting peak at 590nm! I was using polystyrene cuvettes so disregard the left-most side of the curve. Will quartz later!

My oldest friend from school days and I are having "big birthdays" this year, so we decided to treat ourselves to a few days in Portugal in May. Any sightseeing recommendations? (I like plants and botanic gardens and we both like museums and history).

Slightly frustrating aspect of agro rhizogens K599 strains is the clumping in rich media (LB). Need to find a nice minimal media like that used for tumefaciens LBA4404. Slower, but less aggregation which hampers plant transformation efficiency. Every strain's a different beast!

Stay humble my friends, you're never too experienced to perform retrophoresis 😐

Surprisingly good brushless shaker for the price. You have to use these rubber bands that look suspiciously like hair ties, but you can easily gecko-tape a sheet of steel for mag mounts. Fairly quiet too. 40-200RPM. Capacity 2Kg. $130. a.co/d/3IcAj8u
