  • Project Description
  • A Synthetic-Biological System Controlling Translation Process

    2011 SJTU-BioX iGEM team is designing a system in which we will be able to control the expression of the target gene on the level of translation. Our system has provided a brand-new approach that can be universally applied to any protein expression system. In our system we can strictly switch on/off the translation of the target gene; we can selectively translate a part of the whole open reading frame; we can also shift certain amino acid residues to any of the 20 possible alternatives without altering the sequence of the gene. Our significant design offers a multi-purpose and universal way to regulate gene expression on translation level, to selectively express part of a gene, to introduce mutation to the target position of a protein and to study the important residues or domains of the target protein.
