− | To compete for the silver medal, we have | + | To compete for the silver medal, we have constructed a '''[http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1951004 BBa_K1951004] functionnal composite biobrick''', that works as expected. This biobrick were designed from [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_I0500 I0500] (pARA/araC inducible promoter), [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_B0034 B0034] (Ribosome Binding Site) and our basic biobrick [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1951000 K1951000] (Lysine decarboxylase DesA). |

Our results show even more production than obtained with the WT strain. For more information, please visit this [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1951004:Experience page]. |

− | + | To reach the gold medal, we worked hard to integrate our human practices to our project. | |
+ | You can find all this work and how it helped our project [https://2016.igem.org/Team:Aix-Marseille/Integrated_Practices right here]. | ||

+ | We also improved an existing BioBrick, Glasgow 2014 team's BioBrick ([http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1463604 BBa K1463604]), making our brick ([http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1951008 BBa K1951008]). This BioBrick is an improvement of the orignial BioBrick in three ways: | ||
+ | * The codon usage has been optimized to ensure a strong expression in E.coli, | ||
+ | * The RBS has no mutation so the flagellin is well expressed, | ||
+ | * Our swimming test show that the swimming phenotype of the BioBick is improved thanks to our changes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | All the functional tests and experiments, show this part is functional, are listed [https://2016.igem.org/Team:Aix-Marseille/Composite_Part#BBa_K1951008_:_FliC_E._coli_producer here]. | ||
