From 2013.igem.org
Before our team was founded, we heard that a great deal of energy and money has been consumed in fermentation to cool down the fermenter. There are almost 100,000,000 Yuan wasted every year all around China. So, we planned to design a chassis host which can work in higher temperature with the production of heat controlled.
We have extracted new heat shock proteins (HSPs) from thermophilic bacteria. Then we combine it with an RNA thermometer, letting the HSPs be translated at a suitable temperature to release the burden of the cell in its logarithmic phase.
BIT-China is founded in 28th Feb and our slogan is ‘for one green earth’. To settle the problem of energy consumption of cooling system in fermentation, we set up two artificial systems with the method of synthetic biology.

Dr. Iloc is a nice man who likes to help bacteria.
E, created by Dr. Iloc, was the most powerful electrical assistant in this world.
