Team registration and brainstorm
During this time, we registrated the team SKLMT-China in iGEM. In order to verify the feasibility of our project, we discussed with professors and experts and did some human practice work.
Find promoters with various strength in the light of transcriptom references. Take the sequence from the upstream of a specific gene.

design the PAGE-purified oligonucleotides used to amplify the chloramphenicol
amplify the chloramphnicol and promoter segment and add vector homology arms via series PCR. Purify the PCR products using the TianGen PCR Purification Kit and elute into 30ul of autoclaved ddH2O. Quantify the elution using a NanoDrop UV spectrophotometer, store them at 4℃。
In order to obtain an artificial promoter library suitable for cloning, promoter sequence flanked by homology arms was added a chloramphenicol selection marker. This sequence was synthesized by sangon ®.
