| Our project aims at creating a carrier bacteria, which could be used to deliver genes coding a chosen protein into the human cell. Some bacteria have a natural ability to enter eukaryotic cells. Our goal is to introduce this feature to bacteria which do not exhibit it normally, and which can be safely used to carry the “load” into an animal organism, and in the future the human body. As a result, thanks to the introduced gene, the eukaryotic cell has the ability to produce a new, normally not produced protein and the bacterial carrier decomposes after fulfilling its mission. This arrangement is not only an impressive scientific toy, but it also has important applications. | File:Warsaw logo.png 200px |
