Staphylococcus aureus infections are a major caus of morbidity and mortality in community and hospital settings. Consequently, the emergence of methicillin-resistant and, more recently, vancomysin-resistant strains of S.aureus represents an enormous threat to public health. Since bacterial sensors are attracting more and more biologists' attention owing to its detecting specifically, quickly and accurately, we plan to construct a E.coli consortium consisting of two different engineered populations, which comprises consortium biofilm formation, S.aureus detecting, killing and bacterial lysis devices, that will enable the E.coli consortium to detect and kill a pathogen S.aureus. |
