Collaboration

  • They were concerned with waste, especially plastic waste. One of their projects was using Proteinase K, a peptidase from proteinase K family, to degrade PLA. Therefore, since our project was creating E. coli that synthesize PLA, the collaboration was perfect.
  • Our plan is use our extracted PLA from our E. coli, and use the Imperial's teams E. coli to degrade it.
