[DIYbio] Re: Chloroplast Transfection?

Hi,

as I'll be getting Agrobacterium plasmids quite soon,
and there was that paper that said chloroplast transformation using agrobacterium is feasible,
do you think it would be worth a try?

Basically, I'd use an empty Ti plasmid, PCR a kanamycin resistance and lux operon within it.

I think, I wouldn't even need a promoter etc. because the chloroplasts can express operons. So in some of the transformed chloroplasts the gene cassete is inserted correctly between two genes of an operon.


Am I completely wrong?
