Team:Arizona State/Collaborations

Collaboration

Throughout the year, we contacted several iGEM teams to collaborate on our projects. We reached out to high school teams, which may not have the resources to sequence plasmids or parts. The two teams that we collaborated with were the Urban Tundra team from Edmonton and Broad Run Northern VA from Baltimore. We helped characterize their parts by sequencing plasmids and aligning them with predicted sequences.

Urban Tundra

We collaborated with the Urban Tundra iGEM team from Edmonton, Canada. The team was unable to sequence the plasmid that they designed, so the ASU team offered to sequence their plasmid via the Core Laboratory at ASU. The sequence information was collected, aligned using Benchling.com, and then the Urban Tundra team was sent instructions on how to view the shared data.
