RESULTS

Our project aims at designing E. coli to sense its environment and act accordingly. In order to achieve this, we have categorized our projects into three main groups.
Sensory Module
Information Processing Module
Lysis Module

SENSORY MODULE

We have engineered two different sensors into E. coli. The first sensor is an optical sensor that detects the light present in the environment. We used Cph8, hybrid light receptor, as a optical sensor (Fig 1) [1]. The second sensor is to a physical sensor that would sense the temperature of the environment. We used the temperature dependent ribo-switch as a physical sensor to detect the temperature of the environment (Fig 2) [2].
