Welcome
Welcome to our page! Our team is comprised of 6 dedicated individuals: 4 undergraduates and 2 advisors. This will be the third year that iGEM @ UC Davis participates in the competition. We are hard at work and are looking forward towards the completion of our project.
This year, we're making libraries of mutant promoters and repressors. We would like to contribute well characterized mutants to the registry along with characterization of the wildtype parts that we're mutating. We believe that in order for the parts registry to thrive, characterization must be a top priority when adding new parts. This will ensure that the fundamentals of the registry remain, namely that parts are universal and composable. Along with making mutants, we would like to model their behavior when placed in different simple circuits which could give different behavior (i.e. a switch vs. an oscillator). Once characterized, we will make a predictive algorithm so new mutant interactions can be predicted without the need to physically measure each interaction combination.
Stay tuned for the upcoming results! We are proud to announce that Novozymes has become a corporate sponsor for the 2011 iGEM team at UC Davis!
