Isaree Pitaktong on Wednesday‚ February 20th at a Starbucks in Austin‚ Texas for about fifty minutes. Throughout our conversation‚ she struck me as a passionate and quirky young woman who is authentically interested in the sciences‚ particularly biology. When I asked what drives her‚ Isaree told me that she like to “nerd out” and her curiosity is what allows her to expand beyond herself‚ get to know people‚ and get involved in activities that bring her the most joy and she thrives in environments

most important technique in the field of molecular biology today. What PCR accomplishes in technical terms can be described very simply — it allows the rapid and unlimited amplification of specific nucleic acid sequences that may be present at very low concentrations in very complex mixtures. Within less than a decade after its initial development‚ it has become a critical tool for all practicing molecular biologists‚ and it has served to bring molecular biology into the practice of many other fields

1 Detecting glowing E.Coli Colonies by making recombinant DNA from the lux operon of Vibrio Fischeri to pGEM. Liao‚ Tffany The marine bacterium Vibrio Fischeri produced bioluminescence effect due to lux operon transcription. The purpose of the experiment is to create a genomic library of Vibrio DNA and clone the lux operon by making Recombinant DNA and transform into another organism‚ E. Coli. Chromosomal DNA of vibrio fischeri was first extracted and digested with restriction enzyme Sal I‚ then

The Expression and Purification of Recombinant Green Fluorescent Protein (rGFP) From E. coli strain‚ BL21(DE3)‚ Using Ni2+-Agarose Affinity Chromatography Abstract: The purpose of these series of experiments was to express and purify recombinant Green Fluorescent Protein (rGFP) from the E. coli strain‚ BL21(DE3) by beginning with its purification via a Ni2+-agarose affinity chromatography column. The His6 tag of the rGFP bound to the Ni2+-agarose column and washes and elutions were obtained
