Can you feel the smoke tonight?

Data page

SmoColi cells are engineered to sense toxic substances found in cigarette smoke. They are immobilized in a microfluidic channel, in which a concentration gradient of the toxic substance is established. The sensor is linked to a band-pass filter that leads to input-concentration-dependent GFP expression. Continuous increase of the input concentration and its detection, therefore, establishes a moving fluorescent band in the channel. Finally, if the input concentration exceeds a certain threshold, cells produce RFP and the device turns red.

Data For Our Favorite New Parts

  1. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625000 MainPage]-LacIM1, BBa_K625000; E. coli codon-modified LacI designed to avoid recombination with the wild type LacI in a system where both variants are present, LacIM1 binds to Plac and inhibits transcription. (Characterization)
  2. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625005 MainPage]-Psb6A5, BBa_K625005; improved Plasmid pSB6A1 (ETHZ, 2007): transcriptional terminators added. (Characterization)
  3. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625003 MainPage]-PU promoter, BBa_K625003; Promoter regulated by the transcriptional activator XylR (shortened version) (Characterization)


Characterized Existing Parts

  1. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625001 MainPage]- PTet - LacIM1 - Termination, BBa_K625001 (Characterization)
  2. [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K625002 MainPage]-PU promoter, BBa_K625002; Promoter regulated by the transcriptional activator XylR (long version with stop codon) (Characterization)
