Project presentation:
Earlier this year we spoke about plastics and we agreed that plastics are useful for many reasons, they’re durable, flexible and can be molded. But plastics also are problems because of the destruction of ecosystems, pollution of some natural resources, and the reduction of dump area.
So we try to make E.Coli produce elastic protein, and this is ELASTICOLI.
We select 3 elastic proteins, the elastin from mammals, the resilin from insect and the dragline silks from spiders.
The elastin is responsible of the elasticity of the skin and muscles. The resilin enables insects to jump or pivot their wings efficiently to fly. Finally the dragline silk allow spiders to dangle because of the high tensile strength and extensibility.
How to design consensus?
