Data For Our Favorite New Parts
- [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_X0X0X Main Page] - BAR responsive promoter, BBa_X0X0X: promoter can be induced to express a marker gene (GFP) when exposed to skunk smell (Butanethiol, C4H9SH), but not when exposed to pleasant scents
- [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_XXX00 Main Page] - Insulated Vector, BBa_XXX00: un-induced leaky expression is blocked by transcriptional terminators
- [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_000XX Main Page] - BAR Bad Odor Receptor, BBa_000XX: yellow fluorescent protein-tagged BAR (BBa_X00XX) shows that BAR is produced in E. coli

Data For Pre-existing Parts
- [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J45119:Experience Experience] - Wintergreen odor enzyme generator, BBa_J45119 (MIT, iGEM 2006): 98 out of 100 volunteer subjects standing up to 5 feet away from the bacterial cultures could distinguish wintergreen-producing bacteria from negative controls.
- [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J61110:Experience Experience] - RBS, BBa_J61110 (Arkin Lab, 2007): Of the 5 RBS Parts we tested, this RBS works best for expressing yellow fluorescent protein-tagged BAR

We've Also Characterized the Following Parts
- [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_XXXXX Main Page] - Air Freshilizor, BBa_XXXXX: Our mathematical model predicts that the threshold of activation is 10 parts per billion, the concentration of Butanethiol that humans can typically smell
