Achievements
We smile. We shed tears. We strive for the best. These are the little BIG things we have done.
For light-regulated system
- Installed a “two component system(cph8)” that can respond to red light
- To construct a more directly sensor to red light, we designed a new promoter, Pred, which originated from PompC
- Improved the biobrick BBa_I15010, and constructed a functional counterpart, BBa_K1017301
- Proved that the Pred is able to work by experiment
For temperature-regulated system
- Designed a great RNA thermometer it can regulate the translation efficiency as temperature changing
- Proved that this system can work by comparing the GFP expression at different temperature
For small RNA-regulated system
- Designed a regulated system its inhibition work under RNA level
- Constructed a functional sRNA biobrick
- Constructed the target RBS of sRNA
- Proved that the target RBS can really work as a RBS and performed better than other iGEM common RBS
- Proved our small RNA-regulated system can really work
For Human Practice
- Held a conference in this summer time, many Chinese teams and Taiwanese teams participated this conference.
- Promoted Synthetic Biology communication in Asia by the conference
- Held a summer camp to senior high school students, teaching them many knowledge of Synthetic Biology
- Used a Chinese guiding book about iGEM to teach people who want to know Synthetic Biology
- Did a survey to understand the knowing Synthetic Biology level of the publics in Taiwan
