Module 1: Phyto-Route
Movement performed by bacteria based on attraction or repulsion of chemicals is known as chemotaxis. In our project we are engineering this mechanism in order to enable our microbes to swim towards plant roots. Plant roots naturally secrete a variety of compounds that Escherichia coli are not attracted to naturally. Accordingly, we engineered a chemoreceptor that can sense the root exudates into our chassis. This receptor will enable the bacteria to swim towards roots.
