Abstract

One of the main things that I have learned over the course of this project is that things work better in theory than in practice. I spent two semesters attempting to builda plasmid containing the the p17 cDNA sequence in order to test the ability of p17 as an activator of the Coll11a2 gene. Unfortunately, I was not able to produce the plasmid given to me.
