2007 VGEM Team Projects

The two following projects represent a small fraction of the plethora of project ideas that we brainstormed during the spring semester and early summer. Many of our initial project ideas were either too expensive or depended on knowledge that does not exist yet. A fraction of these were deemed plausible near the beginning of the summer, but most eventually met similar roadblocks. Our focus for the iGEM competition will be on Butanol Biosynthesis for biofuel and on Bacterial Melanogenesis, a medically-oriented project. It is our wish that the 2008 VGEM Team will investigate the four other projects in more detail and hopefully implement our theory into a working biological system.
