Today you will take a gene from one organism, jelly fish, and insert it into a different organism, bacteria. The gene is called GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein) codes for a protein that glows green when it is struck by ultraviolet light. This protein give the jelly fish the ability to create bioluminescence and should be able to give bacteria the same ability.

With your lab group, follow the procedure in the pGLO lab manual. You will have to work quickly to get through all the steps of the transformation.
