We have designed a switch that works as a function of bacterial division. This switch is naturally oscillatory, as opposed to other engineered switches out there in the iGEM ether. Switch frequency depends on what strain you place the device in. The dif-sites are recombinatorial solutions that are employed universally by bacteria, and so the device will function well outwidth of the E. coli scope.

At the time of writing, we're still waiting for the Division Popper to arrive from GeneArt. Delivery has now been delayed by over a month and it looks like final piece in this jigsaw puzzle will be left out.

This wiki will be updated until the very moment it freezes, so please watch this space. We keep our fingers crossed.
