    <h2>A Synthetic-Biological System Controlling Translation Process</h2>
+
<html>
-
    <p>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.</p>

    The Project: Codon Switch Controlling Protein Biosynthesis

    SJTU-BioX-Shanghai iGEM team is designing a set of Codon-Switches that regulate target protein biosynthesis (translation).

    In our Rare-Codon Switch, the translation of the protein can be finely turned up/down with the control of rare tRNA amount, aaRS that charges the rare tRNA and rare codons.

    Besides, our device can be made into switches that can be turned on/off without background noise in two ways. One is to use stop codon as the controlling element, the Stop-Codon Switch. The other is to use any codon but the original start codon to initiate translation, the Initial-Codon Switch.

    Project

    Our design has expanded the regulating tools for synthetic biology and introduced brand-new methods for protein function analysis. See more about project applications, click here.
