  1. Excellent presentation. Could you elaborate more about the “Compassionate Care Act” of 1994 and how it limits the usage of your phage?

    1. The Compassionate Care act limited certain treatments on people with illnesses, including the use of temperate phage. Probably due to their ineffectiveness not outweighing the risks of this kind of therapy.

  2. Great job, I what are the limitations of the n cluster phages in vaccines? What are the n clusters increased sporulation mean?

  3. What specifically would you hope to gain from a sequencing of BDragon’s genome? Specifically, how could this genomic information be used in future studies?

    1. Sequencing BDragon’s genome would help us with research on temperate phage genomes in particular. Future studies might see testing on this genome to see how it compares or contrasts to other temperate and N cluster genomes.

    1. N Cluster phage have been found to have multiple unique defense mechanisms inlcuding a single subunit restriction system that enables effecient lysogeny.
