• E. Coli DH10B cells made chemically competent

• Golden Gate Assembly of BB1_01, BB1_02, BB1_03, BB1_04, BB1_05, BB1_06, BB1_07, BB1_08
GG-products are then transformed into competent cells. Colonies with specific antibiotic resistances were selected out by using antibiotic-containing media. The next day, positives clones were confirmed via a OneTaq colony PCR and a gel electrophoresis before a Miniprep was made.
