Wow. Thanks for the great advice. I didn't even know about iGem. I now have a new avenue to direct my personal research towards. I'm actually aware of the plethora of O2 producing microbes. My reasoning for wanting to genetically modify some is an idea I have to eliminate man's need to breath. I reason its possible to take the most oxygen demanding microbes in the human body and alter them to breath CO2. I want to use microbes already present in the human body since they already parasitize their energy from us and also to reduce the likelihood of making something dangerous or lethal tho I know its still a possibility. Also, it would not only eliminate an oxygen consumer in the body but make it an oxygen producer. The microbes in our lungs might be a good place to start if I ever can begin such research. If the need to breath was optional then it would open new avenues of exploration in space and in the ocean's depths. That's one project I'd like to work on anyway. Green fluorescent protein sounds like an excellent place to start and you gave some great advice on how to start building my first lab. Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into this more and maybe soon can start some post on making progress. Oh and I know facebook is awful for getting noticed but I'm actually a recluse so not being noticed is my thing. lol. I post interesting things I find mainly for my own benefit just so I have an organized space for it. If I do try to branch out in the future tho I will look into starting a blog. Thanks again for the advice and more is always welcome.
