Collaborations
Parts Collaboration
We have collaborated with iGEM teams from across the world in a few ways, one of which is providing parts for other teams to use. We supplied the Valencia_UPV team with our chromoproteins (AmilCP (Bba_K1467201) and AmilGFP (Bba_K1467202)) so they could test both their system and our parts as we both worked in the same plant chassis (Nicotiana benthamiana).
New RFC with Cambridge and Valencia_UPV iGEM teams
We joined forces with both the Cambridge-JIC and Valencia_UPV teams to develop a RFC (Request For Comments) as we hope to define a standard that is based on type-IIS restriction enzymes. All three projects used this method of assembly as well as employing a plant chassis. We are also running a workshop at the Jamboree to tell everyone about the benefits of using plants and the type-IIS restriction endonuclease-mediated parallel assembly method.

Meetups
Part of the iGEM ethos is open communication and the collaborative nature of scientific research, which requires interactions between teams and projects. We have attended all the UK meetups (Oxford, Sheffield and UCL) in order to see how or if we can help any other projects or if any projects could help us. We also had a great time meeting and talking to everyone!
