[DIYbio] Re: Finally a chance to create a glowing plant?

Here's a website I found recently that may be of interest. IdeaConnection Crowdfunding is a service for creative scientists, engineers, innovators and inventors to raise funds in order to do research, to obtain a provisional patent or a patent, to fund a startup, or to build an invention. It says that last year, crowdfunding projects raised  $1.5 billion.

Once again, this old topic :D

I'm gonna get that DNA synthesized, but first I have to go haunting for fundings.... If you say it will work. It will cost some 3800$ so I have to be sure it works.



The bacterial luciferin-luciferase system per se should work in plants. (Why not?)

If I have it synthesized like this: best viral Plant promotor known - RBS - LuxA (codon usage modified!) - Terminator  ---  same for Lux B,C,D,E....  it will definitely create the substances needed to glow in planta???

The company will insert it into any vector, so I choose an agrobacterium Ti-Plasmid.

Insert Plasmids (binary system) into agrobacterium. Put it on plant seemen. Goal - a glowing plant??
