Team IGEM Paris 2011

Collaborations

In the project time we tried to establish as much connection between iGEM teams, labs and our team. Here is the list and the greetings:

iGEM teams

We established a collaboration between our team and the the Pekin iGEM team. Indeed, we re-used their last year's project (the push-on push-off system) in our own project. They kindly sent this device to us as well as microbial strains. We are endebted to their team leader for participating to a couple of our reunions at the beginning of our project during his stay in Paris; his ideas helped us moving forward in the different competing projects we had in mind.

Laboratories

During the project we established communication with several labs which gave us strains and plasmids. We would like to give a special thanks to:

  • M. Elowitz, from Caltech, who gave us his pComG-cfp pComS-yfp contruction
  • L. A. Sonenheim, from Tufts University, who gave us ∆CodY B. Subtilis strains
  • J. V. Veening, from Groningen Usiversity, for the reporter strains he sended us in relation with the sporulation system
  • H. Putzer, from IBPC, for the multi host vector we biobricked
  • S. Serror, from Orsay University, for the help and advices she gave us
