Balancing gene expression

According to the simulation result, we have found that the relative strength of the promoters of both sides, or relative expression levels of the downstream genes should be changed in order to reach our model. It might be possible to get closer to our goal by extremely focusing on such Wet experiments undergoing a number of trial-and-errors. However, now that we have almost obtained the strong methods of Dry approaches that compensate Wet ones, we can employ even more sophisticated methods as we have done in this project. We have estimated based on the simulation what should be done next. One option is to changing the ribosomal binding sites (RBS) to modulate largely expression level of the downstream genes. There are different RBS available as BioBrick parts, we could choose proper strength of RBS. Balancing the expression levels of both sides must be a great leap to our goal.

Adapters

遺伝子回路の設計では、今回のように、ある程度コンストラクトを進めたのちにパーツの交換(TSDを使っても一度入れたパーツを取り外せるわけではないのでここは交換ではなく”新たなパーツの挿入”としたい）をしたくなるようなことが多々あるであろう。残念ながら、iGEMパーツは前後にパーツを組み合わせていくものになるので、途中のパーツの入れ替えは難しい。 そこで我々は昨年提案したTSDstandard　と合わせてアダプターという概念を提唱したい。⇒パーツページへリンク。

In construction of genetic circuit, the exchange of parts after validation of circuit is required. However, current Biobrick method does not allow the insertion of new parts between two connected parts. Team Tokyo Alliance in iGEM2006 constructed TSDstandard to solve this problem. In the project, Extending the idea of Biobrick standard, together with TSDstandard that allows the insertion of parts in between, we would like to suggest the importance of Adapters.

Adapters will provide more convenient Biobrick-parts-construction methods.
