SubTeam Updates
Format: what is the progress? what are the issues?

Input: Maxine
No updates.

Receiver Head-Unit: Jen M

 * Taking over for Jenny, unless someone else volunteers to.
 * This week:
 * Complete construction of scFv test construct
 * Begin testing
 * expression (cytoplasmic): western blotting. Any favorite protocols? To plan: talk to team mates and lab members. Timescale?
 * fluorescein binding: need help designing an experiment. should have done by end of week.
