A project is like a seed which require some elements to grow up, in order to bud

This is why our team required the help of others specialist in different domain.
The work lab was done by 9 members of the Igem Bordeaux team 2014 during the summer, we were subdivised into groups and each one was responsible for a particular task.



- Justine and Zohra :
- Jean Remy and Edouard :
- Caroline , Laurianne and Cassandra :
- Claudia , Hiba and Gilles :
The students developed the project during several brainstorming sessions at the European Institute of Chemistry and Biology.
All of the designs, constructs, and experiments presented in this Wiki were performed by the students of the team.
The instructors and advisors were providing feedbacks and advices, when we needed it.

Advisors and supervisors

Denis DUPUY, PhD
Denis is a group leader at the European Insitute of Chemistry and Biology (U869 - Inserm) and works on post-transcriptional regulation in C.elegans.
He supervises the Igem Bordeaux team for the 3rd year. His involvement allowed the team to work in his lab where most of the labwork has been done.
He came up with the idea of the « elasticoli » project.

Elisabeth GARANGER, PhD
Elisabeth is a group leader at the European Insitute of Chemistry and Biology (LCPO - CNRS) and works on Peptide-based polymer assemblies. She was present every time to advice the team about Elastin Like Peptid synthesis and let us use different machines and solvents

Marie Beurton-Aimar, PhD
Lecturer at université de Bordeaux and reasearcher at the Laboratoire Bordelais de Recherche en Informatique. She was in charge of the Bio-informatics group.

Host lab :
Bordeaux IGEM team was hosted at the European Institute of Chemistry and Biology(IECB), which allows many scientist to share and develop their projects. It is a multi-disciplinary institute focused on biology, chemistry & informatics.

Several labs hosted in the IECB provided us all the machines necessary for microbiology and molecular biology such as centrifuges, thermocyclers, sterile hoods, freezers, incubators, microscopes, plate readers, glassware, spectrophotometer, etc.. We were in charge of taking care of the stocks as well as ordering lab consumables such as gloves, plates, pipettes, tips, and tubes as well as chemicals and DNA.

Sebastien Fribourg’s Group :
This group works on structural biology, the group leader let us use the sonicator to lyse our cultures before centrifugation, their different centrifuges and materials for protein production was very helpful.
Lionel Beaurepaire is a research engineer and advised us on the production and purification protocol, in order to get more product.

Axel Innis group :
The group led by Axel Innis (PhD) work on translational regulation of gene expression, Axel authorized us to use his lab equipment.
Britta SEIP (Post-doc)and Carolin SEEFELDT (Graduate student) gave us a lot of helpful advices about protein precipitation.
