Our project

linie rot 8pix hoch

modellvereinfacht



In our project we engineered a synthetic microbial consortium exploiting three different Quorum Sensing systems. Read more about our project here

Results

modellvereinfacht

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

modellvereinfacht

Our devices were assembled in a modular manner out of individual operation units. Each of them fulfills a specific task within the whole construct. The design with distinct operation units guarantees high flexibility during assembly of the final construct.

Impact

With our engineered microbial consortium we contribute to the establishment of a universal and widely applicable system.
