Ideas

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you see these three words: tree, neon lights and dinner service? Christmas! Well, exactly, and that is what our project is all about. Our synthetic biology project will modify several E.coli to perform different jobs:
Christmas Tree

E.tree

The tree includes the leaf part and the trunk part. The “leaves” will change color according to the nutrients in the “soil”: if the soil is rich in nitrates, the “leaves” are green and healthy; otherwise, the leaves will turn yellow. E.tree

Neon Lights

Each engineered E.coli can emit one light at first (such as red); after a while, the red light fades and another light is emitted. The different combination of such E.coli could therefore achieve the effect of neon lights. E.light

Dinner service

The genetically modified bacteria involve a certain self-feedback system. When the “customer” is starving, it orders dinner from the “chef”; and the chef serves meals. While the “customer” is full, it releases a signal molecule and tells the “chef” that no more food is wanted, so the “chef” stops cooking.
