Due to time constraints and issues with prepared screening methods, we were unable to obtain any data that was not purely preliminary. We were able to finish most of the cloning of our lab-built promoters containing the Jungle Express design elements, but were not able to test the constructs in methanotrophs. For the most part we were able to verify that there was indeed no baseline expression when the Jungle Express system was not induced and that the system can be applied to native promoters and still provide tight transcriptional control. We also managed to verify that the system reaches full induction when induced at micromolar concentrations with Crystal Violet. Those conclude the preliminary results of our project, but due to a lack of significant data there will be no other results published on this page.
