In our most recent post we describe fragmenting a halophilic genome 🔪, building functional libraries 🪡 and selecting them 🤼 to find genes that measurably 📏 improved salt tolerance🛠🧂! Lab notebook links once more included if you want to dive into the details! open.substack.com/pub/pioneerl...
The first turn of our engineering crank 🛠🧂

Our second post outlined our first measurement, where we link lab notebooks showing how we reliably quantify salt tolerance 📏🧂 . We also talk about several things that didn't work! pioneerlabs.substack.com/p/we-can-rel...
We can reliably measure salt tolerance 📏🧂
We have achieved Traction!
