Jellyfish

Scripts for planning and accessing information about Aquarium High Throughput Culturing operation types through the Trident API.

Aequorea victoria or the Crystal Jelly, is best known as the source of bioluminescent proteins, aequorin & green fluorescent protein (GFP). Their discoverers, Osamu Shimomura and colleagues, won the 2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work on GFP. This repository automates the phenotypic charaterization of genetically modified organisms expressing fluorecent proteins.

Planned Example and Execution

Scripts automate the planning of 'Define Culture Conditions' operations which take JSON parsable parameters

Once planned the operations sort and organize conditions into a high throughput container.

After execution, the virtual container will have representations of user defined experimental conditions.

Getting Started

1. Go to Jellyfish/Jellyfish/aquarium_resources

2. Using your command line terminal, type the commmands as follows to create a new file.

touch resources.py

Next copy the default_resources.py contents to the new resources.py,

cat default_resources.py > resources.py

3. Finally, use your favorite text editor to fill in the values for username and password details found in the resources.py.
