Conformational Switching

Schedule

• 1st December, 2014 : Submit final draft of Conformational Switching paper to Marco
• 22nd November, 2014 : Finish first draft of Conformational Switching paper
• 8th November, 2014 : Finalise results, create plots
• 1st November, 2014 : Finalise plan for experiments and collect preliminary data

Todo

• Outline by 8th November
• Mount existing container on shaker

Experiments

• Setting of the speed for experiments
  • Result: self-assembly time distribution for each speed; use in experiments speed with lowest average time to completion + 2 std. dev.
• Test to verify role of seed
  • Passive components, no seed
  • Passive components, AND seed

Particulars of experiments (10 trials each)

• Assembly of one target structure (Data to be collected: number of individual components, number of compatible substructures, number of incompatible substructures, number of targets)
  • All components are seeds
  • Passive components, no seed
  • Passive components, AND seed

• Assembly of two target structures (Data to be collected: number of individual components, number of compatible substructures, number of incompatible substructures, number of targets)
  • All components are seeds
  • Passive components, no seed
  • Passive components, AND seed
