iGEM Dundee 2013 · Toxi-Mop

Dundee iGEM 2013

Meet the Team - Making science happen since 1990

Individuals behind the Team

Microcystin, a toxin released by specific cyanobacteria, is harmful to mammals due to its ability in binding to the PP1 protein and ceasing its operation. ToxiMop uses this binding feature and aims to integrate the PP1 protein into a bacterial cell to mop up the toxin. An example of this was at the Beijing Olympics in 2008, when 10, 000 people were hired to clean up the algae in time for the sailing regatta. The current detection process takes approximately 24 hours. The team’s aim is to reduce this to 1 hour.

The benefit of Teamwork

What comes to people's mind when they hear the word, 'Synthetic biology'? Many people don't know what it is, or have an ambiguous image that it is something dangerous. Synthetic biology is not about the un-natural, think of it as playing with the Universe's lego kit. Building with what is already here, we try to create something better..
