botryococcene. In the current study a diaryltetrazole has been used due to its ability to selectively react with terminal alkenes to produce fluorogenic compounds. Prior research elucidated the genes (SSL1&3) necessary for botryococcene production which have been inserted into a dual expression vector and transformed into an E coli expression host. These E coli were cultured and exposed to the diaryltetrazole before being irradiated by UV to initiate the photoclick reaction between the diaryltetrazole and

Association. He didn’t know about the Thorniley Collection until it came to PLU. Upon further research, Tribby said he’s excited to see it go to such a well respected printing arts program for regular use by the public, as opposed to sitting in cases at a museum. “To be able to see the actual artifacts from that era when they were created, and not a modern reproduction, that’s interesting,” Tribby said. Robinson hopes the major donation will attract others, including funds that could lead to a newer
