Team:WHU-China/Project

    Stepping into the IGEM world for the first time, we studied a huge amount of previous projects and found that light sensing bacteria kept arousing general interest but remain an unsettled issue. Despite the great efforts made by previous teams, little progress was made in this field. Therefore we decide to make some attempts. We focus on constructing colorful E.coli.
    Firstly, we came up with the idea of “colorful E.film” based on previous research of bio-imaging. The greatest advantage of our “E.film” against traditional chemical film is the extremely small size of pixels. And we hope to create a colorful film instead of a black-and-white one by constructing three E.coli strains which can produce and secrete three primary colors respectively in the presence of different lights.......
