What We Do

Nitrogen fixing ability of rhizobium is significant for the growth of grass family. The stronger of its ability, the less chemical fertilizer will be used. Molybdenum is a key integral part of nitrogen fixing enzyme in rhizobium and Mo is also important for the growth of plants themselves. However, Mo is heavy mental. The abuse of it will cause environment pollution. Hence, spot application of Mo is of great importance. A plasmid was transfer into E.coli Promethus to make it express fusion protein, one side of which anchors on the out membrane and the other side of which,ModA,catches molybdate. With the help of organic acid tendency system, our Promethus will head for the roots. A suicide system depending on time is also design for the reason of bio-safety. E.coli Promethus will deliver Mo directly to the root of plants. This will also open a new chapter of biological fertilizer.

-      <p>A plasmid was transfer into E.coli Promethus to make it express fusion protein, one side of which anchors on the out membrane and the other side of which catches molybdate. The engineered E.coli Promethus can bind molybdate and with the help of auxin tendency system design by Imperial College 2013, our Promethus will head for the roots. A suicide system depending on time is also design by us for the reason of bio-safety. E.coli Proethus will deliver Mo directly to the root of plants, so the heavy mental pollution of Mo will almost decrease to Zero according to our experiment results. This will also open a new chapter of biological fertilizer.</p>
