The TU Delft team also works on a part which can provide stickiness to E. coli. Thus, we have decided to collaborate to improve the results and characterization of our respective parts.
Their project is about mussel glue and protein responsible of the attachement of mussel to rocks. The strength of this adherence, transposed to bacteria, could be an efficient way to fix bacteria on a support for various purposes, like the production of biofuels.
After an exchange of e-mails and a visioconference, we were able to find different ways to help each other.
- Both team had issues with a promoter existing in the registry, we have decided to synthesise a strong promoter (trc promoter) and to provide it to TU Delft team.
- We have shared our stickiness characterization protocol in 24 well plate and by violet crystal in order to help them characterize their part. With theses protocols, they were also able to repeat our experiment to confirm our results.
- They provide us an access to their confocal microscope to get some detailled pictures of our sticky strain.
