                In Taiwan, fish farmers lose a large amount of fish, because temperature falls dramatically when cold current comes in winter. Of course, fish farmers try to prevent fish from dying. However, current methods do not work well and even cause damages to the environment. In 2013 iGEM competition, NTU_Taiwan team tries to make a bio-heating device. We transform an UCP homologue from themogenic plants into yeast. UCP is a thermogenic protein which can produce heat by interacting with the electron transport chain. By designing a genetic circuit, we want to well control the power of our bio-heating device. In addition, we want to simulate the effect of our device on fish ponds in reality after testing the heating power of our device.

                There are 4 farming fishing among top 15 fishing output in Taiwan. The output value of farming fish is second only to deep sea fishing. Unfortunately, in winter, we see news about large amount of fish died due to low temperature. In winter, cold current which comes from the Mongolia dramatically decreases the temperature and causes fish to die. As you know that fish is cold-blood animal, they can&rsquo;t get with the rapid temperature change. For example, milkfish (Chanos chanos) dies for two major reasons. The first one is dramatical temperature decrease. The second one is vibrios infection. If the temperature stays low in about 10 degree, the mucosa on the fish body will peel off and cause milkfish to die for vibrios infection. </p><p>Fish farmers currently pump the groundwater to warm up the pound but it will damage the stratum. On the other hand, they build up wind shields and dig deeper pounds to resist the cold wind, but it can only increase about 2-3 degree. In addition, some engineers try to heat up the water by electricity, however, fish farmers can&lsquo;t afford the expenses, The method is not realistic. Fish farmers are in passive position because no one knows whether the fish can survive in this time or not. It just likes a gambling, they can only fish the fish before the coming of cold current. Besides Taiwan, Japanese fish farmers also have this problem. The farming fishers in Japan heat up the water by hot water from nuclear power plant. Lack of this heating source brought huge loss in Japanese farming fish business. In May, 2012, they lost 47% output of white trevally and 35% output of shellfish in Fukui Prefecture.</p><p> To sum up, we want to solve this problem by using a brand new method called synthetic biology. We want to make a device to slow down the decreasing of temperature and keep water in a specific temperature. It will be helpful in lessening the death of fish. Our goal is to make a device which can heat up the water in low temperature.

                White and brown adipose tissues (WAT and BAT) serve important opposite functions in overall energy balance. While WAT is specialized in energy storage in the form of triacylglycerols, BAT functions to dissipate energy in the form of heat (thermogenesis).BAT possess abundant mitochondria with uncoupling proteins 1(UCP1). UCP1 is a 6-transmembrane protein in inner mitochondria membrane, and it has been proposed to constitute three symmetrical membrane-spanning &ldquo;Us&rdquo;, each comprising about 100 amino acids(fig.1).The functional UCP is believed to be dimer.

                Mitochondria uncoupling proteins 1(UCP1) are members of the family of mitochondrial anion carrier proteins (MACP). It facilitates the transfer of anions from the inner to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the return transfer of protons from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane. [2][3]UCPs separate oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis with energy dissipated as heat, also referred to as the mitochondrial proton leak.

            </p><p>

            UCP has been found in several species, including mammals and plants. Skunk cabbage(Symplocarpus foetidus)is a thermogenic plant, using srUCPs to resist in dramatic temperature decreases in the environment. In 1999, Dr. Kikukatsu Ito found that there are two types of SrUCPs, designated as SrUCPA and SrUCPB [4]. SrUCPA is proposed to be the functional thermogenic prtein, and SrUCPB serves as a regulator in thermogenesis in Skunk cabbage.[5][6] We use SrUCPA gene as our material to construct our plasmid.<br/><br/>

            Shuttle vector is a vector that can propagate in different species, used to make gene amplifications quickly in <i>E. coli</i>, mutagenesis, and PCR.[1] Generally, these plasmid vectors contain genetic material derived from the <i>E.coli</i>, origin of replication which enable them to be propagated in <i>E.coli</i> cells prior to transformation into yeast cells, and a selectable marker (mainly the ß-lactamase gene, amp) for the bacterial host.
 +
        </p><p>
 +
            The most common shuttle vector is yeast shuttle which can be propagated in yeast and <i>E.coli</i>.There are four types of shuttle vectors.[2]
 +
            </p>
 +
            (1) Integrative plasmids (YIp) : Foreign DNAs integrate into the host genome(YIp) by homologous recombination, then resulting in one copy of transformed DNA.<br/>
 +
            (2) Episomal plasmids (YEp) : carry part of 2μ plasmid DNA sequence necessary for autonomous replication. Multiple copies of the transformed plasmid are propagated in the yeast cell and maintained as episomes.<br/>
 +
            (3) Autonomously replicating plasmids (YRp) : carry a yeast origin of replication, ARS sequence, that allows the transformed plasmids to be propagated several hundredfold.<br/>
 +
            (4) Cen plasmids (YCp) : carry an ARS sequence and a centromeric sequence which normally guarantees stable mitotic segregation and reduces the copy number of self-replicated plasmid to just one.<br/></p>

                UCP1 can transport protons through two different hypothesized mechanisms. In the first model, UCP1 transfers protons from intermembrane space to mitochondria matrix. Fatty acids provide essential free carboxy groups catalyzing proton (H+) translocation. In this model, Coenzyme Q(CoQ) serves as a necessary cofactor of UCP1, activating the protein functions.

                    <div class="span12">

                In the second model, free fatty acids (FFAs) combine with protons with carboxy groups, then flipping across inner mitochondria membrane. After FFAs flipping to the matrix side, UCP1 removes protons from carboxy groups, flipping the anion form FFAs back to the innermembrane space. (fig.??)The anion form FFAs bind to protons again, transferring more protons into the matrix.

                Through these two different mechanisms, proton gradient on either side of inner membrane are formed. Generally, the oxidative phosphorylation of ADP into ATP takes place within the mitochondrial inner membrane respiratory chain. However, the coupling of mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis is not complete (Nicholls, 1974; Brand, 1977). Thus in several tissues there is a proton leak through the inner mitochondrial membrane that is not associated with ATP synthesis. And in these tissues, UCPs produce heat.<i class="tipReveal">[*]</i><br/>

+
-
                                    <p>Student teams are given a kit of biological parts at the beginning of the summer from the Registry of Standard Biological Parts. Working at their own schools over the summer, they use these parts and new parts of their own design to build biological systems and operate them in living cells. Randy Rettberg, an engineer who has worked for technology companies including Apple, Sun and BBN,[1] is the director of the iGEM competition.</p>

                                    <h4>Growth and recent years</h4>
+
-
                                    <p>iGEM developed out of student projects conducted during MIT's Independent Activities Periods in 2003 and 2004.[3][4] Later in 2004, a competition with five teams from various schools was held. In 2005, teams from outside the United States took part for the first time.[5] Since then iGEM has continued to grow, with 130 teams entering in 2010.[6]
+
-
                                    Because of this increasing size, in 2011 the competition was split into three regions: Europe, the Americas, and Asia (though teams from Africa and Australia also entered via "Europe" and "Asia" respectively).[7] Regional jamborees will occur during October; and some subset of teams attending those events will be selected to advance to the World Championship at MIT in November.[8]

 +
                        <p>We also help them in the part "BBa_K1157013". This part is very important, because this biosensor is constructed to sense C-4 AHL molecules through a method different from BBa_K1157012. This time when AHL molecules are sensed, it activates Rhl promoter, which initiates the production of CI. Therefore, CI inhibits pCI and the expression of reporter mCherry is stopped. When compared to control group, the results will be expected to express lower fluorescence level when there is existence of AHL molecules.</p>

                As we known, for most of people who has never learned synthetic biology, it&lsquo;s a magical and crazy idea to take biological parts as the electronic parts. Moreover, someone might be scaried about this technique just like &quot;Witch Hunt&quot; in middle centry, because he don&lsquo;t know what is it.
 +
            </p>
 +
            <p>
 +
                When we talk about synthetic biology, most of our friends will connect this technique with &quot;Genome Modified Organism&quot; and &quot;Terrible Biological Weapon&quot;. They have antagonistic feeling in the first time because they don&lsquo;t know about it. However, beyond our expectation that they still feeling unbelieveble after our explaination......
 +
            </p>
 +
            <p>
 +
                In hence, we decide to make an App to teach them the basic biotech concept and let them know the synthetic biology is not so hazardous. The main idea of this game is let players know if they don&lsquo;t care about the biosafety, they will let environment endanger. But if they are cautious in their operation, most of the results will under their control.

We gave a briefly project introduction and discussed about experimental problems to each other. By the discussion, we found out some bugs but some new ideas in our project. On the other hand, we also gave some advices to UT_Tokyo team. That's a great chance for us to practice how can we express our project entirely and clearly.

                NTU Azalea Festival is a anneal event for introducing each department to senior high school students. By this chance, we wanted to spread the iGEM idea to high school students. We design a simple computer game which contain the concept of synthetic biology, molecular biology and bio-Technology. First, we asked them to choose a right enzyme to digest the glactose. And in second level, we asked them to make the enzyme they used in previous level by amino acids, right RNA, and right enzyme. In the last level, we asked them to build up a operon for galactase production.

                         <h4>UCP in unicellular eukaryotes</h4>
+
                         <div class="body1"></div>
-
                         <p>When activated, UCP enhances cellular lipid metabolism in mitochondria. However in plants or unicellular eukaryotes, lipid metabolism is working mainly in glyoxysomes and peroxisomes; activation of UCP does not seem to accelerate lipid metabolism. In previous study, a higher activity of UCP of a non-fermentative yeast Yarrowia lipolytica was reached in stationary phase during which lipid droplets inside the cell is degraded and predominantly released as fatty acids.</p>
+
                         <div class="body2"></div>
-
                         <p>Even so, the main function of UCP in unicellular eukaryotes is not regarded to be heat production because their living environment generally consists of water which causes heat to dissipate very fast and makes them unable to maintain a temperature different from the environment.</p>

                         <h1>Our Plans</h1>
+
                        <div class="body3"></div>
-
                         <p>Concerning the experimental procedure, we will start from testing the functionality of heterologously expressed UCP1 in yeasts by monitoring the temperature of culture medium. Besides analyzing the amount of UCP, cellular localization assay is also a method to identify the reason of transformants to be non-thermogenic. Next, since culture condition may affect the efficiency of heat production, this influence may be observed from finding the optimal growth temperature and then changing the culture temperature of transformants. Third, after functional expression of UCP and growth condition optimization, we will then proceed to large scale fermentation testing and precise measurement of the heating power, which provides us the parameters to simulate the situation of warming fish ponds against cold wave. Fourth, to give our yeast strain a better heat-buffering capacity, we seek to engineered a yeast strain producing UCP under certain temperature range. This part can be attained by introducing an cold shock promoter. However, biobricks submitted from previous iGEM teams are designed for prokaryotes like E. coli; besides, the range of thermo-sensitivity of those bricks might be so wide that not suitable for our purpose. So, we are planning to clone a cold shock promoter  known in S. cerevisiae, test its range of thermo-sensitivity and enhance its thermo-sensitivity by means of introducing a regulatory circuit. Eventually, we hope to construct a gene cassette with range of thermo-sensitivity between 10~20℃ or even gene cassettes with different ranges of thermo-sensitivity.</p>
+
                         <div class="body4"></div>
-
                         <p>After the assessment of heating power of yeast transformants, our next goal is to improve the heating ability of microbes furthermore. As it is proposed in previous studies that the uncoupling activity of UCP1 may be restricted by the efficiency of mitochondrial ETC, we will try to look into the possibility of increasing the uncoupling activity by stimulating the activity of ETC. While in previous studies, stimulating the activity of ETC with FCCP is not feasible, we are searching for ways to stimulate the activity of ETC on transcriptional or translational steps. It is possible to identify the regulation points of ETC activity by means of computational simulation. Eventually, experimental measurement of the heating power of transformants with altered ETC activity will be necessary to verify this idea.<br/>Ultimately, we are looking forward to developing an energy-saving efficient microbial thermogenic device.</p>

                <p>All the work for this project was performed by the iGEM NTU_Taiwan 2013 team members, the lab work started from July 2013 onwards.</p>
 +
               
 +
                <p>The original SrUCP gene was provided by Dr.Ito from Iwate University in Japan. The pRS424 and pRS423 shuttle vectors was provided by Dr. Jing-Jer Lin from Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of NTU. The pGAPZA plasmid was provided from Dr. Ching-Tsan Huang from the Department of Biochemical Science and Technology of NTU.</p>
 +
               
 +
                <p>All of the following DNA were designed, cloned, or constructed by our wetlab team members:</p>
 +
                1. TAP protein tag was cloned from pRS424 shuttle vector.<br/>
 +
                2. Tir1 promoter sequence was amplified from genomic DNA of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>.<br/>
 +
                3. 26s and 5.8s ITS rDNA was cloned from <i>Rhodotorula glutinis</i>.<br/>
 +
                4. All of the PCR primers of cloning were design by ourselves.<br/>
 +
                5. The construction of pRS424:GAL1:SrUCP:TAP, pGAPZA:26s, pGAPZA:5.8s ITS.<br/>
 +
               
 +
                The idea of controlling the expression of UCP by cold-shock signal was developed by the team before starting our lab works. All of the experiments, the modeling, team wiki design, Android app were planned and carried out by the team.

                             <li>For the same reasons above, there would be minimum chance of the organisms causing any great harm to the environment. Our <i>E. coli</i> transformants do carry an ampicillin resistant gene, so accidental release of the bacteria might result in a spread of the antibiotic resistant phenotype. However, all our experiments are conducted under safe procedures and the equipment used for bacteria cells and/or cultures are properly autoclaved. </li>

 +
                        <p>In case of an accidental release of the thermogenic yeasts from our device to the environment, we have designed a kill switch that would ideologically lead the yeasts to death under such circumstance.<p/>
 +
                        <p>When faced with an increasing osmolarity of the environment, the HOG pathway is activated in yeasts and the final result is the accumulation of glycerol in yeast cells to balance the exterior osmotic pressure. Sensors of the ambient osmolarity rise activates a MAPK cascade and eventually leads to the phosphorylation and activation of the Hog1 protein. Activated Hog1 then translocates into the nucleus and activates a number of transcriptional factors via protein-protein interactions or phosphorylation.(fig.3) These transcriptional factors (mostly activators) then mediate the expression of hundreds of genes related to cell integrity and adaptation to osmostress. Among these, the GPD1 gene and the STL1 gene are the most significant targets of the HOG pathway. GPD1 encodes the sequences for NAD-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, which is the key enzyme of glycerol synthesis. Following activation of the HOG pathway, activated Hog1 binds to the transcriptional activator Hot1 and upregulates the expression of GPD1. On the other hand, STL1 codes for a glycerol/proton symporter in the plasma membrane of S. cerevisiae. Upon sensing a rise in osmolarity, STL1 is strongly and transiently induced by transcriptional activators Hot1 and Smp1, both members of the HOG pathway. Hot1 activation is as mentioned above, and Smp1 is phosphorylated and activated by the active Hog1 protein. We thus utilize, the sensing of osmolarity and the induction of GPD1 and STL1 expression in yeasts to make up the first part of our kill switch.<p/>
 +
                        <p>In order to complete our kill switch so that increasing osmolarity not only activates the HOG pathway, but also leads to cell death, we further integrate a kill gene following the promoter sequence of GPD1 or STL1. The most suitable genes would be those encoding proteins that have nuclease activity. A couple of chosen examples are NUC1 (encoding endonuclease G) and YBL055C (encoding Tat-D nuclease). Endonuclease G is the major mitochondrial nuclease in S. cerevisiae, and it induces apoptosis in yeast independently of metacaspase or of apoptosis inducing factors. Tat-D is an endo-/exo-nuclease that incises the double stranded DNA without obvious specificity via its endonuclease activity and excises the DNA from 3' to 5' end by its exonuclease activity. These proteins are intrinsically expressed during apoptosis. By placing the genes downstream of the GDP1 or STL1 promoter, their expression will be induced under increasing osmolarity and cause irreversible harm to the yeasts, in the end killing them.</p>
 +
                        <p>According to data from current milkfish farms in Taiwan, which are saltwater farms, water osmolarity is way higher than yeast culturing environments. Therefore the HOG pathway would surely be activated once the yeasts escape from the thermogenic device, and with our design of kill switch, cell death follows. If the device is to be used in a fish farm with fresh water, the osmolarity would very likely be lower than the yeast culture. In light of this possibility, we are also looking into another mechanism of S. cerevisiae that is used when it is subjected to low osmolarity stress. It is called the cell integrity pathway, and is activated upon decreasing osmolarity of the environment. We hope to find similar functioning effectors downstream of the pathway like we did in the HOG pathway, and integrate the activated promoters with kill genes. If succeeded, our safety design will not be restricted to saltwater fish farms.</p>

                <b>What is Saccharomyces cerevisiae?</b>
 +
                    <p>
 +
                        <i><b>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</b></i> is a species of yeast. It is perhaps the most useful yeast, having been instrumental to winemaking, baking and brewing since ancient times. It is believed that it was originally isolated from the skin of grapes (one can see the yeast as a component of the thin white film on the skins of some dark-colored fruits such as plums; it exists among the waxes of the cuticle). It is one of the most intensively studied eukaryotic model organisms in molecular and cell biology, much like Escherichia coli as the model bacterium. It is the microorganism behind the most common type of fermentation. S. cerevisiae cells are round to ovoid, 5–10 micrometres in diameter. It reproduces by a division process known as budding.

                <p>Most yeast expression vectors have been based on the multi-copy 2p plasmid and contain sequences for propagation in E.coli and in yeast, as well as a yeast promoter and terminator for efficient transcription of the foreign gene. The recent rapid expansion in yeast molecular genetics has led to a great increase in our understanding of these components, and as a result there is now a bewildering choice of promoter systems and methods for propagating foreign DNA in yeast. In many cases ingenious new approaches have been employed, for example in increasing the strength of native promoters or the stability of expression vectors.</p>

                <p>UCP1 can transport protons through two different hypothesized mechanisms. In the first model, UCP1 transfers protons from intermembrane space to mitochondria matrix. Fatty acids provide essential free carboxy groups catalyzing proton (H+) translocation. In this model, Coenzyme Q(CoQ) serves as a necessary cofactor of UCP1, activating the protein functions.</p>
 +
                <p>In the second model, free fatty acids (FFAs) combine with protons with carboxy groups, then flipping across inner mitochondria membrane. After FFAs flipping to the matrix side, UCP1 removes protons from carboxy groups, flipping the anion form FFAs back to the innermembrane space. (fig.2)The anion form FFAs bind to protons again, transferring more protons into the matrix. </p>

                <p>Through these two div mechanisms, proton gradient on either side of inner membrane are formed. Generally, the oxidative phosphorylation of ADP into ATP takes place within the mitochondrial inner membrane respiratory chain. However, the coupling of mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthesis is not complete (Nicholls, 1974; Brand, 1977). Thus in several tissues there is a proton leak through the inner mitochondrial membrane that is not associated with ATP synthesis. And in these tissues, UCPs produce heat.

But cold shock promotor have not been find in yeast, we choose sequence prior to one of the cold-shock protein, TIR1, as potential cold shock promoter.</p>
 +
            <p><b>What is <i>TIR1</i> gene ?</b></p>
 +
                <p>S. cerevisiae has rigid cell wall that protects the cells from mechanical injury, hypotonic lysis, and damaging extracellular enzymes. The cell well is mainly composed of P-glucan and mannoproteins. When the cell faces severe environment stresses, such as cold shock and anaerobiosis, it will express TIR gene family, producing cell wall mannoproteins.[1] Among the TIR family, TPS1, TPS2, HSP12, HSP26, HSP42, HSP104, YRO2, SSE2, Tip1, Tir1, and Tir2 genes are supposed to express after exposure to low temperature.[2] Tir1 and TPS1 are most studied gene fragments as yet.</i>
 +
                <p><b>Potential Cold Shock Promoter</b></p>
 +
                <p>Since <i>TPS1</i> is observed in cold-shock studies under near-freezing conditions, which is much lower than the low temperature ( 10℃) designed in our experiment, we choose <i>Tir1</i> promoter as our cold shock promoter.[3] <i>Tir1</i> promoter is induced by temperature decrease from 30℃to 10℃.[4] When exposing to low temperature environment (about 10~20℃), our plasmids start transcription, producing SrUCP. Once SrUCP is formed, they will generate heat to enhance environment temperature.</p>
 +
                <p>The most important thing is, owing to no certain cold shock promoter have been find in yeast, whether this sequence can be induce by low temperature, it have significance in yeast genetic engineering.</p>

                <p>In case of an accidental release of the thermogenic yeasts from our device to the environment, we have designed a kill switch that would ideologically lead the yeasts to death under such circumstance.<p/>
 +
                <b>The HOG pathway</b>
 +
                <p>When faced with an increasing osmolarity of the environment, the HOG pathway is activated in yeasts and the final result is the accumulation of glycerol in yeast cells to balance the exterior osmotic pressure. Sensors of the ambient osmolarity rise activates a MAPK cascade and eventually leads to the phosphorylation and activation of the Hog1 protein. Activated Hog1 then translocates into the nucleus and activates a number of transcriptional factors via protein-protein interactions or phosphorylation.(fig.3) These transcriptional factors (mostly activators) then mediate the expression of hundreds of genes related to cell integrity and adaptation to osmostress.</p>
 +
                <b>The GPD1 gene and the STL1 gene</b>
 +
                <p>Among these, the GPD1 gene and the STL1 gene are the most significant targets of the HOG pathway. GPD1 encodes the sequences for NAD-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, which is the key enzyme of glycerol synthesis. Following activation of the HOG pathway, activated Hog1 binds to the transcriptional activator Hot1 and upregulates the expression of GPD1. On the other hand, STL1 codes for a glycerol/proton symporter in the plasma membrane of S. cerevisiae. Upon sensing a rise in osmolarity, STL1 is strongly and transiently induced by transcriptional activators Hot1 and Smp1, both members of the HOG pathway. Hot1 activation is as mentioned above, and Smp1 is phosphorylated and activated by the active Hog1 protein. We thus utilize, the sensing of osmolarity and the induction of GPD1 and STL1 expression in yeasts to make up the first part of our kill switch.<p/>
 +
                <b>Suicide mechanism</b>
 +
                <p>In order to complete our kill switch so that increasing osmolarity not only activates the HOG pathway, but also leads to cell death, we further integrate a kill gene following the promoter sequence of GPD1 or STL1. The most suitable genes would be those encoding proteins that have nuclease activity. A couple of chosen examples are NUC1 (encoding endonuclease G) and YBL055C (encoding Tat-D nuclease). Endonuclease G is the major mitochondrial nuclease in S. cerevisiae, and it induces apoptosis in yeast independently of metacaspase or of apoptosis inducing factors. Tat-D is an endo-/exo-nuclease that incises the double stranded DNA without obvious specificity via its endonuclease activity and excises the DNA from 3' to 5' end by its exonuclease activity. These proteins are intrinsically expressed during apoptosis. By placing the genes downstream of the GDP1 or STL1 promoter, their expression will be induced under increasing osmolarity and cause irreversible harm to the yeasts, in the end killing them.</p>
 +
                <b>Use in milkfish farms</b>
 +
                <p>According to data from current milkfish farms in Taiwan, which are saltwater farms, water osmolarity is way higher than yeast culturing environments. Therefore the HOG pathway would surely be activated once the yeasts escape from the thermogenic device, and with our design of kill switch, cell death follows. If the device is to be used in a fish farm with fresh water, the osmolarity would very likely be lower than the yeast culture. In light of this possibility, we are also looking into another mechanism of S. cerevisiae that is used when it is subjected to low osmolarity stress. It is called the cell integrity pathway, and is activated upon decreasing osmolarity of the environment. We hope to find similar functioning effectors downstream of the pathway like we did in the HOG pathway, and integrate the activated promoters with kill genes. If succeeded, our safety design will not be restricted to saltwater fish farms.</p>

                <p><b>What is <i>Rhodotorula glutinis</i> ?</b></p>
 +
                    <p><i><u>Rhodotorula</u></i> is an oleaginous yeast which is able to activate non-esterified fatty acids for the synthesis of triacylglycerol. <i>Rhodotorula</i> also a common environmental inhabitant. It can be cultured from soil, water, and air samples. It is able to scavenge nitrogenous compounds from its environment remarkably well, growing even in air which has been carefully cleaned of any fixed nitrogen contaminants. In such conditions, the nitrogen content of the dry weight of <i>Rhodotorula</i> can drop as low as 1%, compared to around 14% for most bacteria growing in normal conditions.</p>
 +
                <p><b>The oleaginous yeast</b></p>
 +
                <p>
 +
                    The increasing cost of vegetable oils is turning the use of microbial lipids into a competitive alternative for the production of biodiesel fuel. The oleaginous yeast <i>R. glutinis</i> is able to use a broad range of carbon sources for lipid production, and is able to resist some of the inhibitors commonly released during hydrolysis of lignocellulose materials.</p>
 +
                <p><b>Why <i>Rhodotorula glutinis</i> ?</b></p>
 +
                <p>
 +
                Thermogenic yeast relies on cultural media to grow and to generate heat. This way, the Yeastherm is kind of like burning media as fuel, which is expensive compared with other heating methods such as gas, coal, or electricity. To make our project a more competitive choice when considering large-scale heat production such as heating up a pound in the winter, it is necessary to reduce the cost of culturing yeast. Thanks to previous study in the field of biofuel, we have several solutions of cheaper substitutions of cultural medium contents.</p>
 +
                <p>According to Jie Tao and his colleague’s study, agricultural and forestry residues can be used as an alternative of carbon source, taking advantage of <i>R. glutinis</i>’s ability to assimilate xylose.[1] Agricultural residues such as rice straw and corn stalk are usually burned after harvest. Using these materials not only lower the expense but also benefits the environment. Raw materials like rice or wheat straw are first cut into pieces of appropriate size. They are then hydrolyzed using sulfuric acid with boiling water bath, turninig into hemicellulosic hydrolyzate. Saccharides can be obtained in supernatant after centrifugation and washings of the residue with hot water.</p>
 +
               
 +
                <p><b>Conclusion</b></p>
 +
                <p>
 +
                    Because of the ability of <i>R. glutinis</i> to synthesis  triacylglycerol, we choose <i>R. glutinis</i> as one ofour expression system. After expressing SrUCP in <i>R. glutinis</i>, we will test for appropriate concentration for Agricultural residue extraction considering growth condition and heating power. The optimized heat power will then be used in large scale simulation as well as calculation of cost reduced. If time permitted, we will dig further into the component of the hemicellulosic hydrolyzate, as it is reviewed that there might be inhibiting compound.[2][3]

            <p>
 +
                In hope of putting more values in our biological heating device, we strive to improving the sensitivity of our sensor － the cold shock promoter. This final goal can be break down on two parts: 1. tuning the temperature-responsive range of cold shock promoter 2. amplifying its signal under low temperature. In order to understand what kind of structure of a genetic circuit and what kinds of characteristics of activator and repressor are needed for our purpose, we create several mathematical models to explore the problem. In the end, we expect to get some useful information as a guidance to screen possible biological parts when we actually start to construct the genetic circuit.

            <legend><b>Fitting results of βCsp(T) and βHsp(T) show no overlapping range of promoter activity.</b></legend>
 +
            <p>
 +
                βCsp(T) was obtained by fitting previous studies on related cold shock promoter in human. The curve of βCsp(T) reaches a maximum at 10℃ and a minimum at 20℃ (Fig. 2). In other words, its temperature-responsive range is between 10℃ and 20℃. The value of βHsp(T) is defined by us, reaching a maximum at 37℃ and a minimum at 30℃ (Fig. 3). This setting of parameter is based on certain physiological considerations where the optimal growth temperature of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is 30℃ and where heat shock response is observed at temperatures higher than 37℃. Next, comparing Fig. 2and Fig. 3, it is obvious that the activity range of these two promoters are not overlapping, which is an critical problem to our genetic circuit. We believed that this phenomenon is going to be the flaw of our genetic circuit because two signals produced by two promoters are not able to crosstalk. Hence, the expression profile of GFP along these temperatures might not be changed. This suspect will be proved by simulation in the next paragraph.

 +
            <p>
 +
                To better understand the role of Hsp and constitutive promoter in our circuit, we analyze the expression pattern difference between repressor-regulated-Csp and Csp alone. By an steady state approach, we may validate if our genetic circuit is in effect changing the sensitivity of Csp. In order to define "markers" that help us discriminate between "bad" results and "good" results, "GFP maximal concentration" (abbreviated as <b>GFP<sub>max</sub></b>) and "temperature corresponding to half of the maximal concentration of GFP" (abbreviated as T1/2) as taken into consideration (Fig. 4). As the value of GFPmax goes up, we are more able to observe the signal under low temperatures; as T1/2 goes down, the temperature-responsive range of Csp narrows down which implies more <b>sensitive</b>. However, in our constitutive promoter model, the two markers do not become "better". The repressor suppresses the activity of Csp significantly when αR becomes small (Fig. 5). Likewise, the markers of Hsp model are "bad" too. Since the active ranges of Csp and Hsp are not overlapping, expression of GFP cannot be suppressed at all as predicted in the last paragraph (Fig. 6). We are going to solve this problem using another genetic circuit!

        1, 10 pL of 10X reaction buffer, prepared as follows:<br/>
 +
        For 10 mL of 10 X PCR reaction buffer:<br/>
 +
        &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspa. 0.5 mL of 1M KCl, final concentration of 50 mM.<br/>
 +
        &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspb. 0.1 mL of 1M Tris-HCI, pH 8.4, final concentration of 10 mM.<br/>
 +
        &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspc. 15 pL of 1M MgCl,, final concentration of 1.5 mM.<br/>
 +
        &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspd. 100 pL of a 1% solution of gelatin (heated and dissolved in water), final concentratton 100 clg/mL.<br/>
 +
        2. 100-500 ng of each primer (0.2-l .O pL of a 500 pg/rnL stock).<br/><br/>
 +
       
 +
       
 +
        1. Whenever possible, design primers such that the G + C composition IS 50-60%. If the target DNA sequence is A + T rich, choose a primer with one or more G or C nucleotldes at or near the 3’ termim. This will stabilize the primer-template annealing at the end of the primer that will be extended.<br/>
 +
        2. Primer pairs should have approximately the same temperature of denaturation. The approximate temperature of denaturation (TJ for a primer may be calculated as follows: Td = 2[A + T] + 4[G + C] (20).<br/>
 +
3. Primers 17-30 nucleotldes in length work well. Since shorter primers cost less to synthesize, start with pnmers m the range of 18-22 nucleotldes.<br/>
 +
4. Determine that there is not extensive complementarity at the 3’ ends of a prrmer pair. Complementarrty ~111 cause the generatton of prtmerdrmer artifacts that ~111 reduce the yield of the desired product.<br/>
 +
5. An annealing temperature of 5 degrees below the Td will generally work well. Higher temperatures produce more strmgent annealing conditions and will decrease primer bmdmg to mismatched sequences.<br/>
 +
6. For most reactions the standard magnesium ion concentration of 1.5 mM works well. The magnesium concentration can affect both the product yield and the specificity of the reaction; the optimum will generally be in the range of 1.0-3.5 mM.<br/>
 +
7. Primer design is still an imperfect science. If after optrmizing the reaction conditions the product yield or reaction speclftcity remams poor, try a different primer pair.<br/>

        <p>Mutiple colonies of <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> strain BJ2168 carrying either pRS424-GAL1-SrUCP-TAP or pRS424-GAL1∆ were suspended in 2 mL SD+DO(Trp-) medium supplemented with 2% raffinose until O.D.600 = 3~5. Transfer 1 mL of suspended colonies into 50 mL SD+DO(Trp-) medium supplemented with 2% raffinose and incubate at 30℃ overnight. Dilute the overnight culture to O.D.600 = 0.3~0.8 with fresh SD+DO(Trp-) medium supplemented with 2% raffinose and grow for an additional 2 hr if O.D.600 is higher than 0.8. Before adding galactose and adjusting to 2% for induction, collect 2.5 O.D.600 of yeast cells. After induction, also collect 2.5 O.D.600 of yeast cells at certain time point. After all samples collected, total protein extraction was performed using post-alkaline extraction (Kushnirov, V.V., 2000). Treated samples were run on 10% SDS-PAGE. Transfer and Western blot were performed with normal procedures. SrUCP-TAP fusion protein was detected with primary anti-TAP antibody (Thermo #CAB1001) and secondary anti-rabbit IgG antibody.</p>

Overnight yeast culture was then inoculate into 10 mL same fresh medium and grown at 30℃ overnight. O.D.600 of overnight yeast culture was measured and calculated the cell amount needed for inoculation into 10 mL fresh SD+DO(Trp-) medium to O.D.600 = 2. The yeast cells needed is then collected, washed twice with 1mL distilled H2O, inoculated into medium and subject to 2% galactose induction.

Yeast culture was then immediately analyzed by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), where yeast culture was placed in injection tube and sterile medium in the two cells. Heating power (mcal/s/O.D.600 of yeasts) of the yeast transformant is calculated from integration of the titration curve and normalized by time and O.D.600. SrUCP-responsible heat production was calculated from subtracting the heating power of the control group from that of the experimental group. Baseline of the titration curve was obtained from another control group where supernatant of yeast culture was injected into the same cell.</p><br/>

                    Experimental: Heat(E) = Fermentation(1) + SrUCP<br/>
 +
                    Control: Heat(C) = Fermentation(2)<br/>
 +
                    Because the heat of fermentation(1) is lower than fermentation(2), even if SrUCP produce heat, the total Heat(E) equal to Heat(C).
 +
                    In hence, the better method to test heat production is incubate in isothermal environment or use the isothermal titration calorimetry. We will try these more precise method.

                <p>To realize our ultimate goal, that is, to express SrUCP in Rhodotorula glutinis, we analyze this organism’s growth property. This information is useful for use to prepare the competent cell of Rhodotorula glutinis. This is the fundamental and important step to express exogenous gene in this species.</p>

                Results: <br/>
 +
                <p>At 25℃, R.glutinis has the optimal growth curve, it’s lower than the S. cerevisiae. Also, no matter under 25 or 15℃, the growth rates are both slower than S. cerevisiae. However, the lag phase of these two curves are close to each other.(fig2, fig3). Interestingly, this strain has a faster growth rate at 4℃ relatively. This phenomenon is easily to be observed when inoculating on agar plate.(The result is not shown) Therefore, R. glutinis maybe a better chassis than S. cerevisiae to produce heat in low temperature.</p>
 +
                <p>According to the growth curve, we suppose that between 6 to 8 hours (at early log phase) would be the best time for making competent cell of R.glutinis, but we still need more experiments for further characterization.</p>
