Guide RNA (gRNA) target for XylE (middle of gene)
This part is a guide RNA (gRNA) that targets the middle of the XylE gene, when bound to Cas9.

Usage and Biology
In both of our projects, we used gRNAs and dCas9 as: 1) To specifically target and repress the "virulence gene" (we used flourescent proteins as a proof of concept) in our conjugation project 2) Improve past circuits with better decision making by using dCas9 instead of traditional repressors. However, the gRNA for GFP is not used in the conjugation project since the green fluorescent protein is to represent the donor strain of the project.
Conjugation Project
The GFP gRNA was not used in the Conjugation Project
