Abstract
We placed genes from fireflies and bioluminescent bacteria into E.coli. Codon optimisation and single amino acid mutagenesis allowed us to generate bright light output in a range of different colours. Future applications include and quantitative biosensors and biological alternatives to conventional lighting.
Multimedia
If you want a break from hard-core science, check out our Gibson Assembly music video.
You can also see view videos of our bacterial bubble lamp and project overview.
Tools
The Project
A flask lit by E. coli transformed with one of our constructs
E. coli transformed with our different coloured bioluminescent systems
Team members illuminated only by our bacteria
