THE ST²OOL PROJECT


Synthetic Biology implies an engineering perspective on biotechnology. Similarly to man-made objects, cells are expected to be decoupled, modified and even built from scratch. However, there is a general assent on the current difficulties for fully -and predictably- engineer living organisms, which are always subjected to strong evolutionary constraints. The ST2OOL project aims at deeply stydying four of the key engineering pillars of Synthetic Biology. ST2OOL stands for STandardization, STability, Orthogonality and Open Licence.

The first approach, an analytical one, will consist of a vast range of analytical studies to find out how standard, stable, orthogonal and patentable are several selected Biobrick parts. The second approach, a synthetic one, will include functional metagenomics: several environmental libraries will be set and screened in E. coli in order to select new biological parts -promoters- not because of their strength but because of their particularly standard, stable or orthogonal behavior. Taken together, the results of our project are expected to contribute to answer this key question: Is life fully engineerable?

Requirements

Please be sure to keep these links, your audience will want to find your:

There are a few wiki requirements teams must follow:

  • All pages, images and files must be hosted on the 2014.igem.org server.
  • All pages must be created under the team’s name space.
  • As part of your documentation, keep the links from the menu to the left.
  • Do not use flash in wiki code.
  • The iGEM logo should be placed on the upper part of every page and should link to 2014.igem.org.

Visit the Wiki How To page for a complete list of requirements, tips and other useful information.

Tips

We are currently working on providing teams with some easy to use design templates.
In the meantime you can also view other team wikis for inspiration! Here are some very good examples

For a full wiki list, you can visit iGEM 2013 web sites and iGEM 2012 web sites lists.

This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started:

  • State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start.
  • Be clear about what you are doing and what you plan to do.
  • You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.
  • Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.
  • Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.
  • Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the iGEM 2013 calendar
  • Have lots of fun!
