Current Stock:

Engineer brewing or baking yeast to produce fluorescent proteins.

Using plasmid DNA and yeast transformation techniques, you will introduce a gene encoding a fluorescent protein into yeast cells. Once expressed, colonies glow under blue light, demonstrating successful genetic engineering.

What You'll Do

• Transform yeast with engineered plasmids
• Express fluorescent proteins in yeast cells
• Grow glowing yeast colonies

What You'll Learn

• Genetic engineering in eukaryotic cells
• Yeast transformation techniques
• Gene expression and protein production

Perfect For: Brewers, students, and biotechnology learners.

What’s Included:

Biological Materials

  • Saccharomyces cerevisiaeyeast strain  

  • Preengineered strain of yeast containing GFP plasmid, freeze dried

    I’d be very appreciative if Odin started selling crispr kits for insects! I love the yeast and bacteria kits I’ve gotten so far, feel free to contact me if insect kits ever happen

    Started as a demo for Intro to Biotech course and students made a project out of it to mass produce the protein and add to other food stuffs.
