    <p>Information processing through living things remains a challenge to science. Genetic logic-gates and switches have been used to this purpose<a href="#references" class="references-link">[1]</a>; however, most of these constructions use chemical inputs. Nonetheless, light induction systems have been constructed and characterized in the last few years<a href="#references" class="references-link">[2]</a>. Our project aims to enable a bacterial community, constituted by three <i>E. coli</i> strains that communicate through quorum sensing, to overall interpret a simple light based code. We attempt to insert the necessary genes for the light induction into <i>E. coli</i>'s chromosome, in order to create three different light responsive strains. Since light induction is becoming increasingly used in synthetic biology, we propose these modified <i>E. coli</i> strains as photochassis that could make useful tools in the field. </p><p> Furthermore, each strain will contain different plasmids carrying the genetic constructions needed for the interpretation of the code. This mechanism will mainly rely on genetic logic-gates and switches. The use of phage lambda's based biphasic switch<a href="#references" class="references-link">[3]</a>, which will theoretically allow the independent control of transcription from two different promoters through a single input, is introduced to iGEM.

    <p>This video deals with the following points:
 
-
    <div class="br2"></div>
 
-
- Construction of two genetic <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Contributions/Photochassis">photocassettes</a>, the induction systems for green and red lights.
 
-
<div class="br2"></div>
 
-
- Chromosome insertion of the previous constructions and birth of two new <i>E. coli</i> strains, which we dubbed <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Contributions/Photochassis">photochassis</a>! (responsive to green and red lights, respectively).
 
-
<div class="br2"></div>
 
-
- DNA synthesis of the <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Project/Mechanism">interpretation</a> genetic <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Project/Circuit">circuits</a> by our dear sponsor <a href="http://www.genscript.com/" target="_new">GenScript</a> (not that we did not try traditional assembly). Note there are three different constructions, which will make three smart bacteria.
 
-
<div class="br2"></div>
 
-
- Finally the <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Project/The_Code#Community">community</a> processing the information, sent through the <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Project/The_Code">light-code</a> (inside the <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UANL_Mty-Mexico/Contributions/Light_Machine">light-machine</a>!). Note how the cells within the community work together through quorum sensing.
