myTXTL T7 Teaching Kit

The myTXTL Teaching Kit for high school classrooms is an accessible and versatile system to teach techniques and concepts related to DNA, protein expression, and synthetic biology. These kits can be used for the cell-free expression of proteins, creating biosensors, and testing gene circuit designs, all exciting fields in synthetic biology. Students are also encouraged to design their own projects that may be of interest. The Teaching Kit is similar to the myTXTL Pro Kit and contains the same high quality, research grade material used by scientists around the world. Check out the videos on the use of the Teaching Kit and those on DNA design, DNA software, and pipetting to help get started!

This video demonstrates the BioBuilder Ready, Set, Glow Protocol using the T7 Teaching Kit. Follow along as one of our lead R&D scientists demonstrates this simple, user-friendly workflow.
