To genetically reprogram the chemotactic behaviour of E. coli, through the use of synthetic riboswitches. This will enable bacteria to search a defined area for a particular ligand and return to a set location (the starting point), where they can report on their findings.
+
-
As a proof of principle, we want to test the ability of the reprogrammed cells to locate atrazine/theophylline on a petri-dish, and return to the initial point of departure for reporting. To do this we have three constructs that will make the bacteria toggle between two states of chemotactic responsiveness to different substances.</p>

<p>A defining characteristic of humanity is the constantly evolving sophistication with which human beings communicate and store information. Biologically, data communication networks exist too. The transfer of data occurs via signalling molecules incorporated into highly regulated and integrated networks.Our goal is to construct a bacterial communication network that will allow a group of engineered bacteria to transport messages in a directed manner, with the final aim of completing location-based functional tasks.We have focused on one aspect of this network: the directed transport of the message-carrying “communication modules” within our biological network. These communication modules will take the form of bacteria, which can move over physical distances carrying information. We have achieved this through engineering the exogenously controlled chemotactic behaviour of bacteria using synthetic riboswitches to regulate the expression of the CheZ protein required for bacterial motility.

                      This project could have important implications in the fields of medicine, mining and water treatment. One would be able to send a "bacterial-messenger" out to detect certain substances which can act as chemoattractants - such as disease biomarkers or elemental metals. Via chemotaxis, the messenger ''E.coli'' will be able to search an area and locate the source of the chemoattractant. It will then travel back to the starting point to report back on its findings. Based on the information provided by these "messenger bacteria" a probability density map can be generated, from which the location of the chemoattractant source can be determined. A potential application in diagnostics could be the non-invasive detection and localisation of cancerous cells in the colon, for example.              </div>

Biotweet iGem

A defining characteristic of humanity is the constantly evolving sophistication with which human beings communicate and store information. Biologically, data communication networks exist too. The transfer of data occurs via signalling molecules incorporated into highly regulated and integrated networks.Our goal is to construct a bacterial communication network that will allow a group of engineered bacteria to transport messages in a directed manner, with the final aim of completing location-based functional tasks.We have focused on one aspect of this network: the directed transport of the message-carrying “communication modules” within our biological network. These communication modules will take the form of bacteria, which can move over physical distances carrying information. We have achieved this through engineering the exogenously controlled chemotactic behaviour of bacteria using synthetic riboswitches to regulate the expression of the CheZ protein required for bacterial motility.
