    What would it take to make bacteria produce an electrical circuit? One of the most exciting uses for synthetic biology is in the design of biological systems that can replace and improve industrial processes. By achieving industrial goals using biological processes, we predict dramatic reductions in economic and environmental manufacturing costs. Our project is a first step towards biologically synthesized electronic circuits. Based on precedence of naturally redox-capable bacteria, we generated a system in E. coli that reduces metal in solution. Depending on the application, this system has the ability to form a conductive copper sulfide that can be localized with high precision. In the future our bacteria could catalyze metal deposition to form electrical circuits of any desired dimension and complexity.

1) Successfully expressed four different antifreeze protein constructs in BL21 and Origami strain E. coli cells (verified by observing green pellets, fluorimetry, SDS/PAGE Gel electrophoresis, and Western blotting)

-
We have received the synthetic novel Siberian beetle antifreeze protein gene that was sponsored by IDT and have begun cloning and subsequent experiments on this construct.  We are also developing an ice recrystallization inhibition assay and finishing the cloning of several more BioBricks. Soon, we hope to begin optimizing expression of the antifreeze proteins using directed evolution technologies.
