Tigem
The Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine (TIGEM) was created by the Italian Telethon Foundation in 1994. TIGEM mission is the understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of genetic diseases with the aim of developing preventive and therapeutic strategies.TIGEM currently hosts 17 research groups, and a total of more than 120 persons, including students, postdoctoral fellows, staff scientists, technicians, and administrators and offers training programs in medical human genetics and Synthetic Biology in cooperation with the University of Naples Federico II.

Our Project
The aim of our project is to engineer a synthetic biological network and modifying Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells so that we would be able to change colour at differents oleate concentrations.
Oleate is the principal olive oil element and acidity indicator. The olive oil is defined "extra vergine" if it has an acidity lower than 0.8 %,"vergine" with an acidity lower than 2% and not commestible if has an acidity higher than 3%.
Materials & Methods
We have adopted a strategy of parallel cloning and expression.Reporter genes of interest are cloned in parallel into a vector containing different promoters.
