Overall project
Currently biobricks are often assembled and tested in a bacterial chassis however there remains a shortage of biobricks optimized to work in eukaryotes. To this end, we aim to build several biobricks optimized to work in the simple eukaryote S. cerevisiae as well as build a novel yeast chassis capable of robust characterization of these biobricks. In addition, we are developing a new assembly standard that will greatly improve upon the existing standards for biobrick assembly and allow for rapid integration into S. cerevisiae.
