In nature, a lemon is firstly green and becomes yellow after some month. We would like to follow this ripeness transforming our lemon from green to yellow. In order to make our lemon looks green and having reported that there is no green chromoprotein in the RFC, we would like to fuse a yellow chromoprotein with a blue one separated by a linker containing two amber stop codon. Thus, the expression of a tRNA suppressor would suppress amber stop codon and allow the translation of the yellow and blue fusion chromoprotein, hopefully resulting in a green chromoprotein. Then, in the absence of the tRNA suppressor, only the yellow chromoprotein would be translated, allowing our lemon to switch from green to yellow.

# Making bacteria change its color gradually from green to yellow through time. This part required the design of a color switch system.

Project

In a collaboration with iGEM Paris-Bettencourt team in our iGEM French Meeting, we made a video to introduce the project.

Countdown

This page is under Marie's responsibility

  • Deadline: 08/oct.
    • General introduction of the project.
    • Introduction text of each part of the project
    • Sean's video (bettencourt)
  • Deadline: 12/oct
    • Final review par Maher.

Inspirations

Scientific part

Our project is based on the construction of a bacteria lemon that will look like lemon but made by only Escherichia coli modified to produce lemon scent and change colour from green to yellow. Thus, we will achieved our project by genetically modifying Escherichia coli to be free of any unpleasant odour mutating genes involved, by introducing genes for the production of lemon scent and amplifying this pathway and finally adding a yellow-bleu chromoprotein which its expression is controlled by tRNA suppressor for the colour changing.
