Introduction: Motivation
- We seek to develop a BioBrick that will allow researchers in the field of synthetic biology to accurately measure translational efficiency, and transcriptional strength.
- We believe that we can use Spinach as a biosensor to reflect these metrics in vivo, rather than in vitro, which has previously proven to be very costly and impractical.
- We will characterize the relationship between genetic expression of Spinach (upstream), translational efficiency, and transcriptional strength.

Primary Objective: A Useful BioBrick for Synthetic Biologists
We believe the development of this unprecedented BioBrick will help synthetic biologists in a variety of applications, for a variety of purposes such as the following:
- example application
- example application
- example application
Our proposed BioBrick is novel, and potentially very useful in practice.
Secondary Objective: Humanistic Practice
FAQ/Terminology in engineering Escherichia coli to monitor these variables via fluorescence. Find out more about Carnegie Mellon: (CMU Home Page).
Further Considerations
In the pursuit of our project, as well as the biological aspects, we:
- Considered aspects of scale-up, including the ethical, legal and social implications of our BioBrick,
- Programmed a new piece of software for modeling our BioBrick to students,
- Developed and tested techniques for measuring translational efficiency and transcriptional strength,
- Participated in human practices demonstration xxx.
