Welcome
Our project
In our project we engineered a synthetic microbial consortium exploiting three different Quorum Sensing systems. Read more about our project here
Results
We engineered two complementing constructs that show regulatory behavior in mixed cultures. In single experiments all operation units were proven to be functional. Using both constructs a synthetic consortium between two strains can be created when they are grown in ampicillin containing medium.
Human Practices
How to reach the public? We developed a guide "How to succeed in Public Relations" for all future iGEM Teams.
Engineering Principles
In nature microorganisms commonly live in symbiosis, be it in form of a protective biofilm or as composite organism[s] such as lichen (a symbiosis of algae/cyanobacteria and fungi). Members of this symbiotic community secrete chemicals that offer protection and nutrition or neutralize toxins.
