By constructing robust circuits in E.coli, we want to build a gene network capable of synchronizing genetic oscillations in multiple levels. Cells can be synchronized at the colony level via quorum sensing, and a gas-phase redox will be signaling (mainly H2O2) between colonies simultaneously. Two scales of coupling ensured extremely consistent oscillations.

<h2>Xia Zhang (Tina)</h2>
 +
<p style="width:1000;font-size:18 ">
 +
Tina Zhang is our advisor. She guided us to open the door of synthetic biology and walked us all the way through this competition. Although she knows quite a lot about molecular biology experiments as far as we’re concerned, she’s still humble and fond of learning. As a stringent experimenter, she corrected everyone’s experimental performances. Sometimes we could not help murmuring at her rigorousness and strictness to some extent. But we all feel lucky to have such an awesome advisor from the bottom of our hearts. Tina Zhang always encouraged us to fight tooth and nail to this competition and she told us ”Your strength will equal your days”. Her firmness and persistence which shoulder the heavy responsibilities for our team encouraged every members of XMU-China 2013.

<p style="width:1000;font-size:18 ">
 +
Xin Wu has taken part in iGEM twice. The past three years have witnessed his great contribution to iGEM and synthetic biology. As an experienced iGEMer, he gave us countless insightful suggestions from team development to improvement efficiency of our teamwork. Researching in synthetic biology, he gave us some piece of good advice when brainstorming. Furthermore, owing to his two years' experiences about iGEM, he helped us a lot in numerous things such as registration and payment. The last but not the least important, he’s really a humorous man and good at improving the team’s morale. We couldn't get this far without his encouragement and help.

So far the circuit construction has already been accomplished, and their performances are under testing right now. On a liquid crystal display (LCD)-like microfluidic array bacteria grow in separate colonies, so that synchronization in single colony and gas-phase communication among different colonies could be verified.

<p>Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are considered the main factor in synchronizing separate colonies, so organisms that can generate ROS will have an impact on our oscillation. By measuring different fluorescent signals (GFP is used as reporter), quantitative analysis of ROS in inflammation or malignant tissues is our ultimate aim. Quorum sensing can lead communication over tens of micrometers. However, coordination between colonies over millimeter scales is better at environmental sensitivity owing to its larger cell number, which made our devices a hypersensitive detector in heavy metals and pathogens.

Xiamen is a coastal city located in the southeast coast of China popularly known as the <i>Garden on the Sea.</i> An early poet once described the city in this way: "A city leans on stones like a flower; millions of mountains embrace the sea", which was a true portrayal of the scenery of <i>Garden on the Sea.</i> There are many good reasons to visit Xiamen: With good food, some great architecture and a mild to hot climate, Xiamen is hard to beat.<a style="Font-size: 16px" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiamen"> See more</a>

Our Instructors

Associate Prof. I-Son Ng

Dr. I-Son Ng is an associate professor in College of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering at Xiamen University. Her research interests are biofuel, engineering of enzyme and protein, zymology, genetic engineering, biochemical separation procedures and proteomics. Her role for the project is to provide suggestions and instruments.



Prof. Baishan Fang

Dr. Baishan Fang is the professor in College of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering at Xiamen University. In the group of biocatalysis and biotransformation, his research mainly focuses on synthetic biology, mining and the transformation of enzyme, construction of bio-molecular machines, the application of new biocatalysts. His major role of XMU iGEM team is to mentor all and to enlighten the members.



Prof. Chaoyong James Yang

Dr. Chaoyong James Yang is an professor in College of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering at Xiamen University. His research focuses on microfluidics, molecular recognitions, DNA self-assembly and early diagnosis of cancer. He provided us with equipment for microfluidic experiments.

Our Advisors

Xia Zhang (Tina)

Tina Zhang is our advisor. She guided us to open the door of synthetic biology and walked us all the way through this competition. Although she knows quite a lot about molecular biology experiments as far as we’re concerned, she’s still humble and fond of learning. As a stringent experimenter, she corrected everyone’s experimental performances. Sometimes we could not help murmuring at her rigorousness and strictness to some extent. But we all feel lucky to have such an awesome advisor from the bottom of our hearts. Tina Zhang always encouraged us to fight tooth and nail to this competition and she told us ”Your strength will equal your days”. Her firmness and persistence which shoulder the heavy responsibilities for our team encouraged every members of XMU-China 2013. We all love you, Xia Jiejie!



Xin Wu

Xin Wu has taken part in iGEM twice. The past three years have witnessed his great contribution to iGEM and synthetic biology. As an experienced iGEMer, he gave us countless insightful suggestions from team development to improvement efficiency of our teamwork. Researching in synthetic biology, he gave us some piece of good advice when brainstorming. Furthermore, owing to his two years' experiences about iGEM, he helped us a lot in numerous things such as registration and payment. The last but not the least important, he’s really a humorous man and good at improving the team’s morale. We couldn't get this far without his encouragement and help.



Zhichao Guan

Zhichao Guan is a graduate from Prof. Chaoyong Yang’s lab. He gave us selflessly help in everything about microfluidic experiments. He taught us how to collect microfluidic pictures, how to process a mass amount of data and how to extract useful messages from the data. In addition, he helped building our microfluidic chip and gave us some important suggestions. Although sometimes he appeared to be severe and cool, we were all aware of his trustworthiness.

Our University

Xiamen University

Xiamen University was founded in 1921 by Tan Kah Kee, the well-known patriotic overseas Chinese leader. Over the past ninety years, as the result of following the school motto: Pursue Excellence, Strive for Perfection, Xiamen University has accumulated rich experience in offering its educational programs and has presented its distinctive features in running the programs. The main campus of XMU locates in a picturesque setting between the sea and a scenic mountain, spreading over 150 hectares, and is generally regarded as the most beautiful campus in China. See more

Our City

Xiamen

Xiamen is a coastal city located in the southeast coast of China popularly known as the Garden on the Sea. An early poet once described the city in this way: "A city leans on stones like a flower; millions of mountains embrace the sea", which was a true portrayal of the scenery of Garden on the Sea. There are many good reasons to visit Xiamen: With good food, some great architecture and a mild to hot climate, Xiamen is hard to beat. See more
