Smell The Roses

  • Created BioBricks coding for sequences for different enzymes to nullify the bad odor produced by E. coli.
  • We produced the smells that compose the main odor categories perceived by humans.
  • BioBricks submitted to be BioBrick registry:BBa_K1403003, BBa_K1403006, BBa_K1403009, BBa_K1403012, BBa_K1403017, BBa_K1403019

    • Teen Spirit

    ‘

    • Isolated 4 bacterial species capable of growing on 2-nonenal as a carbon source.
    • Determined the critical smell detection limit of 2-nonenal.
    • Analyzed 2-nonenal tolerance and degradation in natural isolates.

    Something Fishy

    • Cloned tmm into E.coli using pSB1C3 and pSEVA315 vectors, creating a new Biobrick: BBa_K1403015.
    • Characterized and quantified the activity of TMM by a colorimetric assay.
    • Confirmed the degradation of trimethylamine by gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC/MS).
    .

    Goody Two Shoes

  • Demonstrated that mutant strains of B. subtilis produce less odor.
  • Measured growth and viability of mutants in synthetic sweat media and on socks.

    • Don't Sweat It

  • Expressed the odor gene agaA in E. coli (BBa_K1403002).
  • Designed and used CRISPRs to enrich for loss-of-function mutants 1000x in a mixed population.
  • Identified potential CRISPR targets as odor genes with variability hotspots in metagenome data.
  • Formulated a simple skin cream encorporating live bacteria.

    • Interlab study

  • Successfully built the three devices
  • Sequenced and gel verified the three devices
  • Characterised all the three devices with the OD600 and fluorescence measurements in a Tecan micro-plate reader
  • Reported the results on the Interlab Study page of the iGEM wiki
  • Completed the description of the BBa_I20260 (Device 1)
  • Submitted and send parts: BBa_K1403000 (Device 2) and BBa_K1403001 (Device 3) to the Biobricks registry

    • Collaborations
