Week 6

Wednesday, July 2nd

We have a clear organization of the different experiments we would like to perform.

We want to optimize quorum sensing to have non-leaky non-cross-talking constructs. We want to prevent cross-talk between integrases and check their dynamics with different quorum sensing promoters. Then we will test the XOR gate without production of LuxI, to check how it works without the loop, and we will finally test our final construct with the loop, hoping that the delay between GFP production and the possible second switching due to AHL production is long enough to have enough fluorescence.

The red line is our critical timeline. Numbers of days are very optimistic,therefore we multiply the whole timeline by 2. The stars stand for modeling inputs.

We have also clear plans for the Gibson assemblies to perform. As an example, here is the plan for regulator plasmids :

We have a facebook page !

We simulated quorum sensing without leakiness on Matlab, with parameters from the literature.
