Chinese University of Hong Kong iGEM 2011
Project
The project ChloriColight focuses on a light-driven ion pump, halorhodopsin. The CUHK iGEM team 2011 has successfully cloned the gene coding for this ion pump and registered a new part. Effort to relate and integrate light, ion concentration and gene expression level in a system quantitatively is unprecedented. The characterization of the part provides sound evidence and solid foundation for various applications.
Team
4 professors, 3 instructors plus 24 undergraduates! We worked as a team for our project! We are from different departments, including Life Sciences, Chemistry, Engineering as well as Computer Science. Want to know more about us? Just click in to see how we enjoy our journey!
Human Practice
In order to promote synthetic biology, we have implemented a number of ways to raise public’s interest towards this field. For instance, we organized talks about synthetic biology at high school and college. We also took part in a university radio programme as well as conducted an online survey.
