The Recombinase Team ! When we decided at the beginning of our project to use recombinase systems, we found that last year a USA iGEM team had worked a lot on a specific recombinase system called fimE. We contacted them first in order to get some relevant information about the recombinases and understand better how they worked. That is why after several mail exchanges we planned a videoconference between our teams to discuss about our project and the different biobricks that could have been interesting for us or them. Thus, we received their improved fimE system from last year with the IRR and IRL sequences. In counterpart we send them our riboregulation system, but unfortunately it was too late for us to use it in their new system.

In order to help the iGEM Norwich team (to make a new biosensor that can detect new antibiotics), we collected soil samples from the famous "Canal du Midi". We hope that it served them in their great project!

Also thank you to all the other teams who helped us:
