iGEM competition includes about 160 teams (more or less 2000 students) over the world. There will be a first regional jamboree in different regions such as Europe, Asia, America,… and then a third of us will go to Boston for the last jamboree. This will be the first opportunities for most of students to meet people from so many universities at once ! We ‘ll be hosting at the same places, sharing breakfast and even partying together !... We ‘ll be able to discuss abouts many topics related to our fields, share ideas, and to see how others managed their work by watching their presentations.

iGEM competition is not just about doing scientific work in order to get a medal, but is also about doing all of what an engineer or researcher needs to do ! Each team needs to set up contacts and collaboration with other groups. Sharing bricks or helping others is a criteria for winning a gold medal! We also need to get funds in order to finance our work…. So we  must make a project that fits some challenge of our society ! As every one knows, new technologies rise up new ethical issues. This aspect has to be considered on every single project !

Now that we have found an interesting  project and can be useful for the society, we are on the way for 4 month of intense work ! Our group is made of 12 people with very different education , that have to understand and synchronise each other. Since we are spread out in multiple places, we already meet once a week in order to coordinate or work. This need of an efficient communication within the team is an exiting part of the project !

Grenoble 2011, Mercuro-Coli iGEM

Mercuro-Coli: A new way to quantify heavy metals.

Our project aims at constructing an easy to use, transportable sensor capable of quantifying the concentration of mercury, in an aqueous sample.

Our system is based on a comparison between an unknown mercury concentration and a known IPTG concentration. A linear IPTG gradient is present on a test-strip containing the engineered bacteria. When the mercury solution is added, the regulatory network will switch to one of two states depending on the IPTG/mercury ratio.

Bacteria become either “sender” or “receiver”. The bacteria sensing a predominance of mercury over IPTG, the “senders”, will release a quorum sensing molecule which is detected by the nearby “receivers”. The reception of quorum sensing molecules will induce the expression of a red dye in the “receivers”. In this way, a red line emerges at a position in the IPTG gradient from which the unknown mercury concentration can be deduced.
