Some bacteria have been genetically modified to detect certain metals in a water supply. However, it has not been done in yeast. If yeast is genetically engineered to do so, it would be a much safer procedure. The objective for was to create a bio-brick. The creation of the part will enable next year's team to complete the overall goal, which is to create and insert a plasmid into yeast that will cause it to glow red in the presence of a certain metal.
