| − | <div class=" | + | We discussed the foundations of synthetic biology itself, the core problems in the synthetic biology field and potential routes to go down with our project. Our following discussion focused on taking a measurements based approach to iGEM instead, testing components to identify their optimum operating conditions. The idea was to attempt to identify how environmentally dependant the biobricks are. |

| + | We discussed the idea of a killswitch in the pathogen responsible for Rice Blast disease and realised that we would need to spray an entire rice field for it to be effective. To overcome this issue we came up with the idea of using a genetic clock to construct a “time bomb kill switch” in which the killswitch was triggered by the build up of a specific protein. | ||

| + | Today we had a meeting with Dr Nick Harmer who suggested we look at secretion systems in regards to the PAF idea. This would allow PAF to pass through the outer membrane of E.coli. He also put forward the idea of using a gram positive bacteria to get around the problem of the double membrane of the gram-negative <i>E. coli</i>. | ||
| + | </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | There was a new idea created involving a novel method of spreading a killswitch throughout a population of fungi: a virus would act as a vector for a killswitch which would pass throughout a population of fungi via its natural sexual reproduction.. The virus could have the genes that codes for the production of PAF so when the viral genetic information is inserted into the fungus PAF would be expressed, killing the fungus. However our main concern thus far is how the public would perceive an idea like this. | ||

| − | + | There was a new idea created involving a novel method of spreading a killswitch throughout a population of fungi: a virus would act as a vector for a killswitch which would pass throughout a population of fungi via its natural sexual reproduction.. The virus could have the genes that codes for the production of PAF so when the viral genetic information is inserted into the fungus PAF would be expressed, killing the fungus. However our main concern thus far is how the public would perceive an idea like this. | |

| − | + | Following this we carried out research into current education on synthetic biology and unfortunately found there was very little education prior to postgraduate level, despite there being a fair amount of funding going into the field. In 2015, £40M was invested into synthetic biology research in the UK (see link) <sup>1</sup>. This has encouraged our team to want to look at potential ways to close that gap between funding and education, and introduce the synthetic biology earlier on. One way of doing this is developing a new module for the university. | |

| + | The work experience student worked through iGEM Labster and his feedback was that he thinks it needs better prompts to be more accessible. We spoke with him about his current GCSE syllabus, and found that synthetic biology could be taught alongside genetic modification and cloning. However, some students are confused between the differences of cloning and genetic modification. He also gave us his thoughts on the board game and overall he said it looks fun. | ||

| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | Peter Reader, a past Exeter iGEM team member, spoke with us about potential problems to be careful of. He advised us to be wary of parts which haven’t been used much, as it tends to mean they haven’t been characterised well meaning more room for error. He also advised meeting multiple lecturers to have them pull our ideas apart, point out potential flaws and make suggestions to amend these problems. | ||

| + | </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | We also spoke with Ryan Edginton, a former iGEM member, about the wiki and the presentation. He gave us basic facts about the wiki, for example what happens on the day of the wiki freeze and required content. | ||
| + | |||
| + | </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | He also gave us some more detailed advice about developing a brand for the project, including a logo and colour scheme, establishing a team leader for each section, fully defining the meaning of all equations used and explain the symbols and constants involved, and constantly keep testing on all internet browsers to ensure the wiki works on all browsers. | ||

| − | + | Today was the first day with the majority of the team back together, so the key focus today was sitting down and re-brainstorming ideas before we settle on one. As can be seen in the mind map below, the PAF idea was fleshed out and developed in more detail. | |

| + | Some of the team spoke to Dr Mark Ramsdale, a fungal cell biologist. He gave feedback on the PAF dea, raising the question as to why we wanted to express PAF in E. coli as opposed to a fungus. Dr Ramsdale pointed out that due to how small PAF was as a protein, using GFP as a tag could affect how it is transported around the cell, and therefore skew the results. He told us about fungi specific promoters in Neurospora crassa which acts as a Circadian Clock using light and heat as inducers. | ||
| + | </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | This prompted a discussion about using a viral vector that contains a killswitch that. The viral vector will insert its genetic information in the host, a strain of Magnaportha oryzae. The Magnaportha oryzae would breed and the population would be infected with the virus containing the killswitch. The possibility of this being a heat activated killswitch was considered, so during the warmer months when plants grow the killswitch fungi is active to produce PAF. | ||
| + | </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | Some of the team also met with Dr Nicky King, who is going to get us a stand at the Big Bang Science Fair for the South West (29.06.16) and the Britain Needs Scientists fair (06.07.16). She also discussed with us the possibility of writing an undergraduate Synthetic Biology module to be taken up by either Natural Sciences or Biosciences, and seemed very keen on the possibility of this. | ||
| + | </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp" style="padding-left:0;padding-right:0;padding-top:0;"> | ||
| + | We also met with Professor Rob Beardmore to discuss the genome integration idea. He said it sounds interesting but raised concerns about if it would even be possible to mathematically model it. He also liked the killswitch idea and said testing KillerRed and KillerOrange under a gradient of slowly increasing light intensity could be the strongest selector for resistance. | ||

We finished and printed off a poster showing how biology, chemistry, engineering and maths are all important in synthetic biology, a Synthetic Biology leaflet and an iGEM leaflet, the front and back of which are pictured below. | |

| + | The abstract for our project was written up and a basic form was uploaded to the Wiki. It focuses on how we can improve killswitches, as opposed to the initial killswitch idea of characterising the parts extensively. We intend to submit KillerOrange as our new part, and compare its functionality against that of KillerRed with a continuous culture. We also want to test if it is beneficial to have two killswitches in a system as opposed to one and look at the difference in stability of the killswitch if we integrate into into the chromosome. | ||

This time, she interviewed Dr Sara Burton, a senior Biosciences lecturer at the University of Exeter. Dr Mark Ramsdale also agreed to be interviewed for our series, and we have begun to reach out to people outside of the university so we can expand our series.</p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">We also had a Skype session with the UCC iGEM team today, who were hilarious! They’ve said they’ll show us around Boston at the Jamboree as some of their current members have been on past teams, and we also sorted a collaboration with them for later down the line of testing out each others parts.</p> | ||

Their whole idea of a database is really cool though, as it means it’ll be so much easier for future teams to look at relevant past projects, to find out what has previously been done and what can be built upon.</p> | |

They resuspended Killer Red DNA from the iGEM parts we had been sent, then attempted to transform it into competent cells. They made 9 plates for incubation - positive and negative controls, 3 chloramphenicol resistance plates and 4 ampicillin resistance plates.</p> | |

| − | + | <p id="pp">Dr John Love, one of our lead supervisors, came back from a conference trip today. We met with him this morning (at 8am!!!) in Costa (so at least we could get some coffee) to discuss what we’ve done so far on lab work, human practises, wiki and modelling, and get some feedback. </p> | |
| − | + | </div> | |
| − | + | <div class="col-xs-12 div_log"> | |
| − | + | <p id="pp">He gave some incredibly useful advice on how we could expand our lab work more, looking at different ways to characterise the kill switches. In regards to human practises, he loves the board game (and gave us funding for 16 more physical copies), and suggested using surveys to quantify the impact of the board game on the students using it. He also agreed to take part in ‘Desert Island… Science?’ which is fantastic!</p> | |
| − | + | <p id="pp">We’ll be meeting with Dr Love and Dr James, our two lead supervisors, in sub teams next Tuesday, so it’s time to start finalising who fits into what roles so we can organise those teams.</p> | |
| − | + | <p id="pp">The KillerRed transformations from yesterday were unsuccessful - there was either no growth of 1-2 colonies on all the plates. However, we believe we know the error - we attempted to transform 1μl of DNA, which may be too low of a DNA concentration, so the transformations will be reattempted with 5μl.</p> | |

We will officially be expanding outside of just academics based at the University of Exeter - Dr Jon Marles-Wright and Dr Thomas Howard, both academics at the University of Newcastle, have agreed to be interviewed for our series! We’ve sent out a few more messages, but haven’t had any more responses yet - fingers crossed for over the weekend!</p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">Today was incredibly exciting in terms of our board game too - we received the 16 printed copies of BioMech, and they look incredible! We released a photo of the finalised board game on Twitter earlier, with this being the first time we’ve publically mentioned our board game, and the response has been fantastic so far! It really has been so wonderful how well it has been received!</p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">We have also been in touch with The Sutton Trust in regards to the game, and they seem quite interested in the idea. Hopefully we will be able to sort something out with them in regards to widening participation.</p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">The Killer Red transformations were successful this time, which is great news and means it was only a concentration issue and not a procedure error. The lab team today - Dan, Eloise, Emily, Jack and Pablo - worked on transforming Killer Orange into plasmids using a 3:1 ratio for insert to backbone. They made both ampicillin and chloramphenicol plates again for incubating the transformations. They also prepared more chloramphenicol stocks for future lab sessions.</p> | ||

| − | + | <p id="pp">They also left behind three board games so the school could get extended use out of them, and continue to send us surveys on board game reception - we’re hoping to receive the first batch back within the next few days so we can get an idea of how effective the game is.</p> | |
| − | + | <p id="pp">We also had two very exciting confirmations for ‘Desert Island… Science?’ today - Professor Paul Freemont of Imperial College London, and Professor Jim Al-Khalili of the University of Surrey (and presenter/guest presenter on several shows, including ‘Horizon’, ‘Light and Dark’ and ‘Shock and Awe’).</p> | |

| + | <p id="pp">Of the LB flasks prepared yesterday, three were inoculated with Killer Orange and one was used as a control. The OD was measured every hour, and the proteins were left to mature for an hour. The lab team spread plated the cultures and tested two in the light box, then placed the spread plates in the cold room so they can be tested on Monday. The transformed Killer Red plate was put in the cold room with them so it can be overnighted on Monday.</p> | ||

They took a sample of the Killer Orange cultures from the flasks and left them in the light box for the full day this time. The samples were tested in the FACS machine, which showed Killer Orange proteins only being produced in the non-induced culture due to a leaky T7 promoter.</p> | ||

| + | <p id="pp">Emily and Pablo worked in the lab today - they did CFU counts on plates. Two of the spread plates - RFP 10<sup>-3</sup> in the dark and KO 10<sup>-5</sup> not induced - were found to be anomalous due to an issue with the spread plates used.</p> | ||

| + | <p id="pp">Today was a day that focused on writing up wiki content. Dan uploaded and started to analyse the Killer Red and Killer Orange data from the last few weeks, and typed up the latest few lab book entries. </p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">Emily had a meeting with Dr John Love and Dr Paul James about the second and third year modules we are developing - the meeting was very positive, with them giving advice on how to improve on the current module ideas. She also worked on the wiki home page, improving on what is currently written.</p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">Leanne worked on writing up sections for the Human Practises page on the wiki - she typed up about the science fairs (Big Bang Science Fair and Britain Needs Scientists Fair), the work experience students who have joined us through the summer (Barnaby, Juliet and Jorge) and the data analysis on the BioMech survey we conducted at Colyton Grammar School.</p> | ||
| + | <p id="pp">Today’s lab team - Emily and Dan - prepared and autoclaved the ministat chambers so they are now ready for use, and set up a new configuration using 1L Duran bottles to deal with previous effluent problems. They also prepared overnights of Killer Red, Killer Orange, Lysozyme, RFP and the wild type.</p> | ||
