Can you feel the smoke tonight?
 

Contents

SmoColi-Data page

SmoColi cells are engineered to sense toxic substances found in cigarette smoke. They are immobilized in a microfluidic channel, in which a concentration gradient of the toxic substance is established. The sensor is linked to a band-pass filter that leads to input-concentration-dependent GFP expression. Continuous increase of the input concentration and its detection, therefore, establishes a moving fluorescent band in the channel. Finally, if the input concentration exceeds a certain threshold, cells produce RFP and the device turns red.

How Our System Works


Our Favorite New Parts

  1. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625000 MainPage]-LacIM1, BBa_K625000; E. coli codon-modified LacI designed to avoid recombination with the wild type LacI in a system where both variants are present, LacIM1 binds to Plac and inhibits transcription. (Characterization)
  2. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625005 MainPage]-Psb6A5, BBa_K625005; improved Plasmid [http://partsregistry.org/Part:pSB6A1 pSB6A1] (ETHZ, 2007): transcriptional terminators added. (Characterization)
  3. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625003 MainPage]-PU promoter BBa_K625003; improved version of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I723138 BBa_I723138] (Glasgow 2007) Promoter regulated by the transcriptional activator XylR (shortened version) (Characterization and Dose response fit)


Characterized New Parts

  1. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625001 MainPage]- PTet - LacIM1 - Termination, BBa_K625001 (Characterization)
  2. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625002 MainPage]-PU promoter, BBa_K625002; improved version of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I723138 BBa_I723138] (Glasgow 2007); Promoter regulated by the transcriptional activator XylR (long version with stop codon) (Characterization)


Characterized Pre-existing Parts

  1. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I13453:Experience Experience]-PBAD promoter, BBa_I13453 (Endy Lab, 2005) dose response for homogenous expression of the PBAD in BW27783 (Characterization)
