Re: [DIYbio] Re: Student group needs help genetically modifying foods.

You say that this was done with E coli? How would the experiment have to be altered to fit Vitamin A (beta-carotene) if at all?

Yeah, that method I learnt from the lux operon and from kanamycin biosynthesis (which interestingly starts with glucose, so you can be sure E coli has the precursor substance).

If they would want to spend 2000-3000 Dollar on synthesis, they could have the construct within few weeks.

If you have that much money to burn in one single project I would be happy to help you with the DNA design!
