<p> Promoters can be used to control the gene expression of whichever gene they are placed upstream of. Most promoters which are currently in the iGEM registry can be separated into one of two categories. There are constitutive, or “always on,” promoters of various strengths. There are also inducible promoters, which activate transcription based environmental factors such as light, pH, or the presence of any number of molecules.

For our project, UIUC_Illinois is characterizing a promoter library that will give users more control over gene expression, without the need for inducers. We are currently working to isolate a set of e. coli promoters that turn on and off according to the host’s growth phase. For example, one promoter may become active during exponential growth but shut off once stationary phase is reached. Another promoter may be active only during the initial lag phase before shutting off for the rest of the growth curve. It is our hope that these promoters will be useful tools for any teams wishing to time protein production in vivo, whether the intended applications are metabolic engineering, probiotics, or any number of related topics.

+
 
−
<ul>
+
                                </div>
−
<li>State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start. </li>
+
−
<li>Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.</li>
+
−
<li>You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.</li>
+
−
<li>Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.  </li>
+
−
<li>Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.  </li>
+
−
<li>Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the <a href="https://2016.igem.org/Calendar">iGEM 2016 calendar</a> </li>

UIUC_Illinois iGEM 2016

Promoters can be used to control the gene expression of whichever gene they are placed upstream of. Most promoters which are currently in the iGEM registry can be separated into one of two categories. There are constitutive, or “always on,” promoters of various strengths. There are also inducible promoters, which activate transcription based environmental factors such as light, pH, or the presence of any number of molecules.

For this year's competition, UIUC_Illinois is characterizing a promoter library that will give users more control over gene expression, without the need for inducers.











Just in Time.

A library of growth phase dependent promoters.





Project

See our team's project description and motivation for a promoter-driven project. Project design and safety considerations are also included.

Human Practices

iGEM teams strive to make an influence outside of wet lab work. This area includes exploring issues relating to the environment, community, ethics, and other humane topics of interest.

Wet Lab

See our team's work regarding the benchtop work done for the project. This includes our team's notebook, experiment, and results. See undergraduate lab research in action!

Interlab Study

View our team's interlab study considerations and data geared toward the future of iGEM.

Meet the Team

See the 2016 UIUC Illinois iGEM team members! Collaboration details with another iGEM team is also included.

Get in Touch!

Contact the UIUC Illinois iGEM team, whether it's the 2016 members or future teams.
