Biosafety is a big issue in synthetic biology. Awareness needs to be raised in the population so as to increase the confidence in this new technology and its applications.
+
A lack of quantitative data in the area of Kill Switches is a major barrier to this. 
+
Our team have decided to extensively test the viability of kill switches, especially those currently available from the iGEM registry, to try to improve the robustness of biocontainment systems.
+
The core of our project will be based around using simple kill switches from the registry.
+
We are proposing to perform a continuous culture of the transformed E.coli to determine the length of time until functional loss of the kill switch gene.
+
  
As the project moves further we are interested to test whether two kill switches implemented in a system provide a failsafe.

We aim to test <span style="color:#ff0000;">KillerRed</span> and a new part <span style="color:#ff6600;">KillerOrange</span>, a homologue of KillerRed excited by a different wavelength of light,
+
in isolation and together in the hope of improving the stability.
+
  
In addition to this we aim to test if the stability of kill switches is improved by integration into the genome vs expression on a plasmid.

the second focused on measurement. Lots of research was done into anti-fungal proteins and a delivery system by which we could attach E.coli to the fungus using a novel prokaryote-eukaryote bridge. We looked into using a viral vector to introduce a killswitch into fungal pathogen and have it spread sexually through the population.

Welcome to iGEM 2016!

Your team has been approved and you are ready to start the iGEM season!

Before you start:

Please read the following pages:

Styling your wiki

You may style this page as you like or you can simply leave the style as it is. You can easily keep the styling and edit the content of these default wiki pages with your project information and completely fulfill the requirement to document your project.

While you may not win Best Wiki with this styling, your team is still eligible for all other awards. This default wiki meets the requirements, it improves navigability and ease of use for visitors, and you should not feel it is necessary to style beyond what has been provided.

Wiki template information

We have created these wiki template pages to help you get started and to help you think about how your team will be evaluated. You can find a list of all the pages tied to awards here at the Pages for awards link. You must edit these pages to be evaluated for medals and awards, but ultimately the design, layout, style and all other elements of your team wiki is up to you!

Editing your wiki

On this page you can document your project, introduce your team members, document your progress and share your iGEM experience with the rest of the world!

Click here to edit this page!

Tips

This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started:

  • State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start.
  • Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.
  • You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.
  • Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.
  • Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.
  • 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 iGEM 2016 calendar
  • Have lots of fun!
Inspiration

You can also view other team wikis for inspiration! Here are some examples:

Uploading pictures and files

You can upload your pictures and files to the iGEM 2016 server. Remember to keep all your pictures and files within your team's namespace or at least include your team's name in the file name.
When you upload, set the "Destination Filename" to Team:YourOfficialTeamName/NameOfFile.jpg. (If you don't do this, someone else might upload a different file with the same "Destination Filename", and your file would be erased!)
