Part families are a great asset to the Parts Registry, and they're easy to make. Our process for expanding basic parts into part families is quick, easy, and prioritizes the use of materials that most iGEM teams already have on hand. By following these steps, you can expand your favorite part into a part family and make it available for use around the world.

Welcome to iGEM 2011 at UC Davis!<br><br>

The four of us have been hard at work on this year's project. We've fine tuned a powerful (and simple) part family generation process, created, screened and characterized a set of LacI promoter mutants. We even mutated GFP!<br><br>

We also developed <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:UC_Davis/KO3D">KO3D</a>, an interactive, cross-platform javascript plotting library for displaying scientific data on the web in 3D. <br><br>

<p>This is the third time a team at UC Davis has competed in the iGEM Jamboree. This year, we are focusing on foundational advances for <a href="http://biobricks.org/" target="_blank">BioBrick</a> circuit synthesis. Part families, groups of parts with a unified function and differeing characteristics, are some of the most useful parts of the registry. Our project aims to streamline the process of expanding basic parts into part families, from promoters to protein-coding genes.

Want to Make a Part Family?

Part families are a great asset to the Parts Registry, and they're easy to make. Our process for expanding basic parts into part families is quick, easy, and prioritizes the use of materials that most iGEM teams already have on hand. By following these steps, you can expand your favorite part into a part family and make it available for use around the world.
