With an eye to combat the environmental issues related to nitrogen oxides, we designed some circuits that can produce several kinds of nitrogen oxides reductases and transcriptional regulator into our organisms so that those harmful nitrogen oxides can eventually reduce to nitrogen. Combined with sulfur metabolism pathway and Calvin cycle inherent in cyanobacteria, we provide an eco-friendly, multi-function solution to the air pollution problem.

This is a very promising project with huge commercialized potential since the mass production of bioreactors full of our organisms is foreseeable. What’s more interesting, with the help of division inhibitor, gene for invasion, we can install our designation into human cells as artificial organelles and grant human being the ability to survive in extreme environments such as Venus without wearing bulky space suits.

Every year, iGEMers create plenty of parts, they code for peptides, proteins or composite parts for multiple functions. However, they are just DNA sequence. But what if we create parts as the scale of organelles? With the technique, we can implant any cells into the host depends on what kinds of functions we hope to see in it. Compare with transforming cells using merely simple DNA sequence, implanting new organelles can bring more complicated function and more precise controlling system. Maybe someday we can make eukaryote to fix nitrogen, reduced sulfite, or even make animal to photosynthesize! Or we can create an organism that can lives in other planets! Quite promising, isn’t it?

Our Ultimate Goal !

 

Due to rapid population growth, the environmental problems are worsened and even threatening to ruin our lovely Earth. Yet somehow, human being will be able to come up with the solution to such problem, just like the famous quote from Jurassic Park: “Life finds way”. In the 16th century, when every street in Europe is overfilled with people, a remarkable era called Great Navigations started, in which people migrated and colonized to the new world. And now, our project aims to do something familiar. We offer a novel approach to solve the environmental crisis. Our project can not only reduce pollutants but also adapt human being to the contaminated environment. That is, endue mankind with special ability by artificial endosymbiosis. The simple conceptual principle is, an unicellular cyanobacteria with novel sulfur and nitrogen metabolizing bio-bricks could automatically invade into human by a invasin system similar to Listeria. As the cell was equipped with engineered cyanobacteria, we not only reconstruct the primal processes of endosymbiosis but also pioneer a new way to engineer organisms. Eventually, a new human species will be created.

Welcome to our Campus
Founded in 1974, National Yang-Ming University, formerly known as National Yang-Ming College of Medicine, has been adhering to the school motto of "benevolent mind and art, putting knowledge into practice" while training excellent humane doctors to provide service by solving medical problems in remote and rural areas.
