One of the resources that MIT provides teams competing in iGEM is a copy of parts that have been submitted to the Registry. These parts also include those that were submitted as a result of previous iGEM competitions (a big reason why we want you to keep on top of [http://partsregistry.org/Help:How_to_send_parts sending] us your parts as you create them!). For iGEM 2006, the Registry will send out parts in the form of dry DNA.
Sometime in the next several weeks you will receive a package in the mail containing a plate that looks like this:
[Insert pic of last year's dry DNA]
What do you do with this plate once you have received it?
- The DNA at the bottom of the wells needs to be resuspended. To do this you must:
- Peel off the foil cover OR puncture a whole through the foil with a pipette tip
- Add X ul of TE Buffer (Tris-HCl?)
It is your DNA "sandbox" to play with.
