From 2011.igem.org
In the future our first effort will be to optimize the lysis module such that the Dpn enzymes are efficiently exploited by the synthetic microbes to eradicate its genetic material in a non-native environment. We would like to introduce the following components into our Chop. coli in order to achieve our goal
Future work & Application
On top of this, UNIST team will also introduce more controlled system into E.coli so that it can be more safe to the environment and easy to be handled in the laboratory.
Two light signals before lysis would help in providing a more tight control and ensure that the device would still work even when one of them is mutated.Our team will also introduce a fourth sensing module to the Chop. coli using the quorum sensing system. In case of fermentor E. coli will experience its native original quorum sensing molecule, AI2
UNIST team is going to make that engineer E.coli to recognize different quorum sensing molecules such as AHL to differentiate between the fermentor and the real world.
This system will also help achieve an effective and tight control of lysis device.
