This space will be used starting April, 2009 for brainstorming and a shared whiteboard space.
We need to learn more about these topics:
- What is msDNA?
- How is msDNA normally produced?
- How is msDNA stored in E. coli? How many copies are carried per cell?
- What is the sequence of bacterial reverse transcriptase and can we clone that gene?
- Can we redesign the normal msDNA pathway to produce new segments of DNA of our choosing?
- What interesting challenges or problems does origami offer?
- Can we produce a series of increasingly difficult goals that might be possible to produce in the lab?
- What has been done before and how can we improve upon that?
- We can perform some pilot experiments using synthesized DNA and later switch to msDNA (maybe).
