|---|
| Team | Year | Project Name | Project Summary | Biosafety Idea |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kill switch | <Kill switch.> Our kill switch is designed by inserting an antimicrobial peptide (AMP) gene into E.Coli Read More | |||
| Engineer bacteria to accelerate plant root development | Toxin/antitoxin. Consits of the insertion of the Holin + Endolysine and Anti Holin genes. Read More | |||
| Bacteria that detects and signals the presence of nitrates | Encapsulation in a gel. We encapsulated our bacteria in beeds made out of a non toxic gel.Read More | |||
| Detect chitin,and alert the plant by stimulating an early hypersensitive response against infection. | A few ideas but no design:
1. amplification mostly from start to stop codon to avoid hidden pathogenicity + blast of sequences to confirm 2. Cloning in vectors without a mobilizable origin or TRA region. 3.growth curve of the strain to confirm low dissemination. 4. develop a strategy to monitory the presence of the modified bacteria in the crops fields based on color markers (no design made).

| Heavy metal bioreporter and bioabsorbent engineering | A few superficial ideas
(1. make the plasmid toxic for any bacteria it may transfer to. 2. plasmid can’t be replicated in another bacteria) Read More | |||
