About the Author

Thanks to our professor George Aranjuez, for the continuous knowledge and guidance, as well, as our fellow laboratory partners who have created a safe and fun atmosphere for learning.

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

This project focused on creating viable drosophila models that could be used to evaluate and understand the significance of the N-tarp portion in the effector genes of Chlamydia Trachomatis. During our project we performed multiple DNA clean ups, PCR's, gel electrophoresis, double digestions, and DNA ligations. In this we learned not only the methodological importance within these laboratory techniques but that a great deal of learning occurs in being able to evaluate and analyze ways to troubleshoot when intended results from an experiment are not observed.
