Virus Construction Kit

info AT biobricks DOT org

Dear Registry-Team,

my name is Volker Morath and I am a undergraduate from the iGEM Team Freiburg 2010. I am working on the description of our parts for the registry and wanted to sort them into the catalog. During this work I realised that all our parts that are designed to produce and modify therapeutical viral vectors based on the Adeno-associated virus do not belong to an already existing function-category. I have already created a function-category for viral vector production and a subcategory for the AAV that will be improved in the next days. The only remaining problem is that I can't create the category in the description of the corresponding BioBricks. [1]. If you are fine with my intention to sort our parts into the catalogue, could you please include the following categories:

//Viral vectors
//Viral vectors/AAV
//Viral vectors/AAV/RepCap
//Viral vectors/AAV/Vectorplasmid

Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

I am looking forward to see you all at the Yamboree.

In the iGEM competition 2010 the Team Freiburg bioware constructed a Virus Construction Kit that makes the Adeno-associated virus (AAV2) available for all users of the parts registry. The Adeno-associated virus is a well studied vector for eukaryotic gene transfer.
