Hydrargium

A revolutionary method to Hg bioremediation in E. coli

Project

Synthetic Biology allow us design new biological system for a specific function. We built an innovative system in Escherichia coli for mercury (Hg) bioremediation. Our project consists in two steps: designing a new promoter regulated by Hg and mer operon. To learn more about our project click below.

Parts

We built a library of new parts which are essential for the design of new biological circuits for mercury bioremediation, going from regulatory protein gene to structural region of enzymes. To see all the biobricks click below.

Out Reach

School lectures seems to be quite stressful sometimes and because students miss the focus quickly. The school evasion is easily noticed. We developed a program of practical classes that get out of that ordinary line. We did a program with funny and interactive lectures related to biological themes, synthetic biology and genetic engineering. We had a huge success. Check this out!
