       <p>In order to port MAGE from E. Coli to other organisms, we had to first find inducible promoters that worked in Cyanobacteria and Sinorhizobia, and then beta-homolog proteins (reference to MAGE section of our wiki) for both organisms. At this point in the project, we began with finding cyanobacterial inducible promoters. We found promoters in Cyanobacteria which should, in theory, be inducible, and one constitutive promoter. The promoters were a nitrate-inducible promoter nirA, an iron-inducible promoter isiAB, a green-light-inducible promoter pCpG2, and a constitutive promoter, psaA. We designed and ordered primers to isolate all of these promoters from their respective backbones, whether they were Synechococcus sp. 7002 or Synechocystis sp. 6803. We also focused our efforts on growing up copies of a backbone plasmid, BBa_K125000, which was to contain our primers.</p>
