+ | <b>Looking for Boston</b> | ||
+ | <blockquote><p> | ||
+ | During the Regional Jamboree in Amsterdam we focused our attention in collecting any kind of feedbacks from everybody: judges, instructors, advisors and other igemmers.<br/> | ||
+ | This has been really useful also to plan our work during this supplementary month.<br/> | ||
+ | Looking for Boston we decided to change the genetic circuit inside the bacterial strain A.<br/> | ||
+ | At the beginning of this experience we believed that forcing a strong mutualism between the two bacterial strains would represent the best way to build a stable consortium. Following this purpose we designed for Amsterdam a bacterial strain A, which in response to OXOC8 produces OXOC12 and glucosidase and a bacterial strain B, which produces OXOC8 and glucosidase in presence of OXOC12. Both A and B are not sensible to their own language and so A needs B and vice versa. This kind of circuit guarantees a strong mutualism but will also generate a kind of useless redundancy in which both A and B produce the same reward for the whole system.<br/> | ||
+ | Moreover this genetic circuit needs an initial external injection of or OXOC8 or OXOC12 to start the system.<br/> | ||
+ | Our feelings suggested us to keep Symbiome simple and more effective associating to each characters a specific and unique task.<br/> | ||
+ | On these new evidences we decided to give to cell A the role of starting up the system by constitutively producing OC12, leaving to cells B and C the production of the rewards, respectively the beta-glucosidase and the secreted beta-lactamase.<br/> | ||
