Long Term Goals

miRNA Profile

  •  Read literature
  •  Choose profile

Building the Cell Detector Circuit

  •  Build  Choose profile
  •  Verify sensors
  •  Create mathematical model
  •  Make test bed
    •  Controlled miRNA expression
    •  Constructed miRNA sensors

Mini experiments

    •  Single miRNA detector circuit

Experiments

    •  L7ae repression
    •  TAL14 repression
    •  TAL21 repression
    •  Single input sensors
    •  Multiple input sensors

Alzheimer's Model

  •  Agree on a team wide, full Alzheimer's model

Today's Agenda

How To Please Ron/Brain

  •  Create a list/diagram of plasmids based on morning meeting
    • Use AND logic --> each sensor on it's own plasmid?
    • Create a workflow of plasmids to build (in parallel)
  •  Update the parts list on the wiki

miRNA Sensors (Theory)

  •  Prepare to meet with Jake Beal
  •  Re-analyze all of our data in MATLAB (Gary)
  •  Learn how to acquire MATLAB from Brian
  •  Find natural concentrations of relevant miRNAs.

miRNA Sensors (Lab Work)

  •  Re-transform MAV1212
  •  Re-transform MAV1212-Hef1a-eBFP2
  •  Mini prep MAV1212-Hef1a-eBFP2
  •  Gateway MAV1212-Hef1a-mKate2
  •  Gateway MAV1212-Hef1a-L7ae

Cell Models

  •  Figure out what's going on
  • Midi-prep hEF1a:rtTA and hEF1a: Gal4VP16 2A rtTA3
  •  Mini-prep MAV1212 hEF1A Tal14
  •  Digest and Map MAV1212 hEF1A Tal14
  •  Transform third LR trial if not verified
  •  Pick/Streak hEF1a: Gal4VP16 2A rtTA3

NOTES:

hEF1a: Gal4VP16 2A rtTA3 culture did not grow so
