Eukaryotic Cell
"Eukaryopedia" in progress
In the world of synthetic biology and specifically in the iGEM competition, most of the teams work on prokaryotic cells. However some of them tried to "legitimate" the use of Eukaryote as another model. Our project fully supports this mindset introduced with Eukaryopedia by Heidelberg Team in 2009.Introduction to Eukaryote
The term eukaryote means the entire living organisms on our planet whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within membranes. Eukaryotic cell is part of the three reigns of living systems including Bacteria and Archaea, both prokaryotes. Nucleus, within which the genetic material is carried, is the membrane-bound structure that set eukaryotes apart from prokaryotes. Indeed Prokaryote includes many unicellular organisms whose cells lack a cell nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelles.Differences between a typical animal cell and a bacterium
