Gameplay overview

We had problems with the leakiness of our system and the missing promoter library in Lyon, but solve those for Boston.
After finding out the analytical solution (see here of the solution) needed for the second promoter detecting two mines around, we decided to do partial sensitivity recovery of the first PLuxR variant (G1) (see here for the library). This worked very well and we isolated promoters with different EC50. Then thanks to the model prediction we could easily select one of those 7 promoters which fits well in our system (single mutant 1 , SM1).
Meanwhile the leakiness could be reduced by introducing a positive feedback loop (see here the optimization of the circuit) and our two problems were finally solved.

The GFP-RFP gameplay

First of all we set-up a simple version of the game using GFP and RFP as reporters for 1 and 2 mines respectively, using the newly isolated and predicted PLuxR (SM1) as promoter in the Plac-LuxR-pLuxRBBa_J09855 construct with RFP as reporter and the native BBa_R0062 in the PLac-LuxR-PLuxR BBa_J09855 construct with the GFP as reporter.
