| The spider silk gene and the Pdes (cold sensing) promoter with CheY (movement) gene downstream of it are put in our backbone, and inserted into the Bacillus subtilis genome |
|
| The transformed B. subtilis is then put in a bath with a heated implant. As the cells sense the heat close to the implant, they will stop moving |
|
| The secreted spider silk with strep-tag attaches to the implant its streptavidin coating. The coating is processed with evaporation, treated with kosmotropic ions and heated thoroughly |
|
| The implant is now coated by the Coating GEMs and is ready for use! |
