Revision as of 21:42, 16 July 2012
| This year the UCSF iGEM team is excited to have 5 members from Abraham Lincoln High School, 1 member from City College of San Francisco, and 2 returning members from the 2011 team. We are looking forward to a fun and exciting summer of research. | |

Project Description: The 2012 UCSF iGEM team is investigating bacterial symbiosis. We hope to further the understanding of how two bacteria communicate in a mutualistic relationship. We have constructed experiments to demonstrate two methods of symbiosis. We were inspired by a paper (Kerner 2012) that demonstrated tunable symbiosis of two auxotrophic strains of E. coli and attempted to regulate the population ratios of these strains. We have decided to build on thiswork to create strains of bacteria that can work together - lessening the metabolic burden on each one - to create some product. Our proof of priniciple products are easily identifiable (colorimetric) products such as melanin and violacein. | |
