It is hypothesized that strong gene expression will affect the growth and viability of cells. This experiment was conducted by incorporating a strong promoter from the Anderson Family (BBa_J23101: Registry of Standard Biological Parts) | It is hypothesized that strong gene expression will affect the growth and viability of cells. This experiment was conducted by incorporating a strong promoter from the Anderson Family (BBa_J23101: Registry of Standard Biological Parts) with a medium strength ribosome bonding site (BBa_I13003: Registry of Standard Biological Parts) in <em>Escherichia .coli</em> to test the hypothesis. Quantitative results were obtained by optical density using a spectrophotometer with UV light of 600nm. The results indicated that the growth and viability of cells were not affected by strong gene expression. | ||
