Building a Synchronized Oscillatory System

Welcome to the iGEM wiki of Team Wageningen UR

The international Genetically Engineered Machine competition (iGEM) is a major competition in Synthetic Biology for undergraduate students. This year will be the eighth time this competition is held and the first time that a team from Wageningen University will participate. Our team aims to use a synthetic biology approach to engineer artificial cell-to-cell communication systems. Our main project is to create a "Synchronized Oscillatory System" hereafter named "Synchroscillator" and we also have a side project which we call: "Fungal Track 'n Trace". The aim of the Synchroscillator project is to produce periodic oscillatory protein expression in E. coli, synchronized across a population, using the quorum sensing machinery from Vibrio fischerii. The Fungal Track 'n Trace project aims to implement an artificial intercellular communication system in the hyphal fungus Aspergillus nidulans.

-from Wageningen University will participate. Our team aims to advance the knowledge in cell-to-cell communication. We are working on two projects, called "Synchronized Oscillatory System" and "Fungal Track 'n Trace". The aim of the Synchronized Oscillatory System project is synchronized oscillatory protein expression in a population of ''E. coli'' cells, using their natural quorum sensing system. The Fungal Track 'n Trace project is about visualizing cell-to-cell communication in ''Aspergillus nidulans''.
