Helpful Information

Keep in mind that the first half of the paper discusses the creation of an activator. This construct is intended to have red and yellow fluorescence in the presence of galactose. The second part of the paper shows how this activator is then modified to serve as sythetic memory device with three separate states:

Yeast that have never been in the presence of galactose will no fluoresce.
Yeast that are currently in the presence of galactose will fluoresce red (and yellow).
Yeast that have at one time been in the presence of galactose will fluoresce yellow.
