Abstract

The OIL oozes and gives the skin a greasy shine, and that’s one of the most fearsome nightmare of human.

We expect ourselves to solve this problem by producing skin-care ingredients with fatty acid metabolism related gene circuits

in our gene modified E-coil, skin-guardian. In our project, we have three kinds of skin-care ingredients to skin whitening,

keratin decomposition and fragrance producing respectively. When skin-guardians uptake excess oil and sebum through

fadL, it will synthesis Acetyl Coenzyme A, which will change the structure of repressor, fadR losing its affinity to promoter.

And our skin-guardian can started to translate genes, make us looks fair and tender.

...

Living through numerous theoretically and practical examinations, our skin- guardians proofed itself to be a great expectations in Aesthetic Medicine.

...

Everyone wants to be a real charmer on appearance, but somehow it’s difficult to reach it with greasy face full of aces. We expect ourselves to produce skin-care ingredients with high efficiency and safety with our gene circuits. Through our project, we can not only find a revolutionary solution to our skin problems, but also significantly lower the cost of manufacturing.
