The construction team works on the realization of a reverse microbial fuel cell (rMFC). The challenge is to reduce a mediator at the electrodes which afterwards enters the cells and transfers the carried electrons onto the cells.

A mediator must have the ability to be reducable by electricity at the electrodes and must have perfect constraints for an uptake of the cell. These constraints are for example the size to pass the first membrane or there has to exist the right genes for oxidation in the cell.

This subteam works with the transformation of a heterotroph organism to an autotroph organism. The aim is to realize the whole Calvin cycle. The main focus lies on the use of the carboxysome.

For a proof of concept one team works on the production of isobutanol. In theory there are more carbon sources which can be used by producing pyruate. This work bases on the work of iGEM Team Formosa 2011 and 2012.

The homepage and wiki team publishes new information about the team and the project on both webpages.

Our social media and design team is responsable for facebook and twitter where our latest information are published in addition with some pictures. Additionally they are designing all our project graphics for presentations and webpages.

This subteam goes in contact with different sponsors for our project. The aim is to get enough support to pay all costs for participation, travel and other. All sponsors are mentioned in the category partners.

Our iGEM team participates at the SYNENERGENE project of the Rathenau Institute. In cooperation we work on some future scenarios for our project. This subteam has contact to different firms which could participate at the realization of our project.
