IGEM Project is our number one priority. As we worked really hard for our project it is important for us to make our dreams come true which is taking a gold medal. Questioning different items like experiment time, materials and methods and the efficiency of the experiments improved our skills and we started to look as a scientist to problems we faced. There were lots of challenging parts and sometimes we thought to quit but we listened to “Eye of The Tiger” and we did not give up from our experiments we delayed them yes, but we never gave up. <p>

    Biodegradation of TNT and TNT derivatives by nfsI-transfected Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii

    Abstract

    Kardesim su yazıları degistirin artik.

    Yenisini gonderdik ekleyin We aim for the genetic modification of the unicellular microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii by introducing the nfsI gene belonging to the bacterium Enterobacter cloacae in order to investigate how nitroreductase expressing-microalgae respond to trinitrotoluene (TNT) exposure. Our experimental design is as follows: firstly, obtain a synthetic gene of nfsI with flanking prefix and suffix of standard Biobricks, and ligate this insert to pRbcBRL, a vector with appropriate expression and selection system for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and obtain pRbcnfsI. Then, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii will be transfected with the with the designed plasmid. The transfected algae will then be grown in presence of TNT and/or TNT derivatives and the effectiveness of nitroreductase activity on biological degradation of TNT will be investigated.
  • Something about spirit of being team

  • In this summer; we learned about iGEM, how it works, what the biggest part of competition is and how we can win a medallion.

    When we were newbie, we organized a lot of meeting to find out our main project than we got idea for improving human welfare so we choose an idea from brainstorm results. We searched to get a gene to work on. As a result; lab works began. We added our protocols which are helpful to transform Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Escherichia coli. Basic cloning protocols are available on our protocol page. Experiments and safety questions also available from link at the top section.

  • IGEM Project is our number one priority. As we worked really hard for our project it is important for us to make our dreams come true which is taking a gold medal. Questioning different items like experiment time, materials and methods and the efficiency of the experiments improved our skills and we started to look as a scientist to problems we faced. There were lots of challenging parts and sometimes we thought to quit but we listened to “Eye of The Tiger” and we did not give up from our experiments we delayed them yes, but we never gave up.

    IGEM team- meet-up was a great opportunity for us to communicate with the other groups, understood their projects and share our ideas. As we had a chance for an interview with Anatolia Agency, we also used media power to get attention to our project, iGEM and the importance of synthetic biology.

    Apart from that we did not forget having fun apart from our lab. As we planned a BBQ party, it was also a great chance for us to relax and gain some energy for our experiments, I did not even mention about the delicious foods and how joyful was our activities. Also like in iGEM team meeting up, we had a chance to introduce our project and main aim to other scientists and researchers in different areas.

    Links at above lead you to specific event and its photos suppose to be at that link. If not, look at gallery link. Thanks and get great time.

  • We are really grateful to Gulce Itir Percin, Aydan Torun and Zeynep E. Ulger for their help and especially guidance of Mrs. Ulger about unknown lab equipments. Prof. Dr. Tayfun Özçelik and Assistant Prof. Ali Güre are helped us to start iGEM team. Assistant Prof. Ayşe Tekinay and her lab were assisted our project a lot. Also we thanks to other members of SBL and NBT for patience.
