| − | <p id= | + | <p id="pp" style="font-size:200%;">Our project seeks to investigate the effectiveness of different types of kill switch, to quantify their robustness after several generations and compare the stability of these devices when integrated into the genome or carried on a plasmid. We hope to improve the standard of biosafety in the synthetic biology community and provide valuable data for the field to move forward.</p> |
<p id=”pp”>We have developed three types of kill switch; an improved metabolic kill switch which builds on a previous iGEM project , an enzymatic kill switch that uses the production of lysozyme to kill the cell, and DNA degradation mediated by DNAse production.</p> | <p id=”pp”>We have developed three types of kill switch; an improved metabolic kill switch which builds on a previous iGEM project , an enzymatic kill switch that uses the production of lysozyme to kill the cell, and DNA degradation mediated by DNAse production.</p> | ||
