So. I’m installed in the lab. I’ve done my initial share of mixing up buffers and LB media for the E.coli bacteria (the ever-present lab workhorse). I’ve created a (tiny) stock of vectors (pRSET based), and should work out the primers for PCR amplifying the two chitin binding proteins I will work on. Trying not [...]

I had a meeting with my supervisor today. He gave me a “tour de labs”, and got me installed. Immediate plans involves setting up an array of useful buffers. I will also have to design primers for a couple of potentially interesting genes that codes for proteins involved in chitin degradation. When the constructs (vector [...]
