Below are some resources that may come in handy as you're working on your projects for iGEM 2014 High School!
Wiki editing
- MediaWiki has detailed instructions for wiki editing, including the following:
Purchasing laboratory reagents and materials
- Fisher Scientific offers a wide array of common laboratory materials and reagents
- Sigma Aldrich offers many chemical compounds, including antibiotics
Databases and websites to explain concepts:
- Parts Registry Help page is where you can find information about BioBrick Parts and how to use them
- Team Virginia 2013 developed a high school education series including slides, lab exercises, and readings
- BioBuilder has a series of synthetic biology laboratory exercises
- Labster provides exercises in an interactive virtual learning environment
- OpenWetWare is a source for protocols and other lab-related information
- CompuBioTicDB is a database of biological components for synthetic biology
Tutorials:

- Primer design and ordering (OpenWetWare)
- Ligation and plasmid construction (BioBuilder)
Software tools:
- FAQ section on iGEM.org answers questions about wiki-editing
- TinkerCell is a free "Computer-Aided Design software tool for Synthetic Biology"
- GENtle is free software that allows users to edit DNA sequences, generate plasmid maps, and more
Protocols:
- Making competent cells (Registry)
- Competent cell transformation (Registry)
