'''Project Goal'''
+
-
 
+
-
The aim is to produce output as a function of cell division. This can have the added potential of performing programmed cell death after a determined number of divisions. We also hope to further analyse cell division and recombinase mechanisms.

'''Project Goal'''
+
-
 
+
-
Engineer lactic acid bacteria, such as ''Lactobacillus acidiphilus'' to synthesise flavours and colours during yoghurt production.  The idea is to stimulate the synthesis of a certain flavour and colour via the addition of an external stimulus.  Due to the nature of the finished product we will be using promoters induced by the disaccharides maltose, trehalose and arabinose.
+
-
 
+
-
The project will be carried out in two steps.  The first step is to generate the flavour and colour biosynthesis pathways in E. coli, before transferring them to ''Lactobacillus''.

Welcome to Edinburgh's iGem Wiki!

Here are some links to different parts of the wiki

  • Ideas - Projects that never came to be
  • IP talk - A Synthetic Biology and Intellectual Property talk given to a local technology group

The Projects!

Currently have two projects we are looking to take forward:

Bacterial counter Self flavouring yoghurt
