Our iGEM 2014 Jamboree Plant Workshop

We have the pleasure to announce that along with the Valencia and UEA team, we will be holding a workshop during the 2014 iGEM Jamborees. The workshop aims to introduce and explore the potential of Plant Synthetic Biology. We will present the cohesive standards across the field, new transformation techniques and introduce the novel organism Marchantia polymorpha. We hope you will be able to attend.

There will be three stations: A- Standardized Plant Syntax
held by Valencia B- Transient Expression in Plants
held by UEA C- Marchantia polymorpha, a model organism
held by Cambridge

Station A: Standardized Plant Syntax

Outline 1- A common Type IIs Grammar for Eukaryotic transcriptional units 2- Introduction to Golden Gate Standards 3- Part Standards 4- Assembly Rules 5- Multi-genic constructs 6- Applications Valencia will be presenting and share the unified standards of Eukaryotic Synthetic Biology as described in our RFC 105. The station will explain the concept behind Type IIS restriction enzyme cloning via systems such as GB2.0 or MoClo. You can find more information about the systems via: https://gbcloning.org/ or visit Valenca’s Wiki at 2014.igem.org/Team:Valencia_Biocampus
