Find the documentation of our research here.
-
Protein Engineering
We wanted to engineer Cry3Aa to become toxic to Varroa destructor.
-
In Vitro Assay
To provide an alternative for tests on live Varroa mites, we designed an assay that uses brush border membrane vesicles.
-
Varroa isolates
We tried to find our own Varroa entomopathogen.
-
Riboswitches
To detect the presence of Varroa mites in the beehive, we made a B12 and a guanine riboswitch.
-
Quorum Sensing
A quorum sensing system was characterized to regulate toxin production in BeeT.
-
Light Kill Switch
The light-induced kill switch was one of our biocontainment methods.
-
Modelling
How we modelled .
-
Chitinases
As a back-up, we wanted to use chitinases which are more harmful to Varroa destructor than honeybees.
-
Cas9-based Kill Switch
The Cas9-based kill switch was one of our biocontainment methods.
-
Toxin Scanner
We made a software tool for finding new Cry proteins toxic to Varroa destructor.
-
Metabolic Modelling
We wanted to use a metabolic model to see the effect of our BeeT distribution method.
-
Testing E. coli survival
Following the results of the Metabolic Model, we needed more data.
