The project as University iGEM 2012 teams participate this year is to produce a construct that allows cyanobacteria to emit light when exposed to darkness for an extended period. The advantage of using cyanobacteria over other model organisms such as E. coli, is that Cyanobacteria do not require glucose in growth, but even fix the CO2 in the atmosphere. The construct using promoters of genes which, under natural conditions involved in the circadian rhythm cyanobakteriens. Those associated with a luciferase gene Casette containing all the enzymes necessary for the deployment of biologically generated light.

The result is a sustainable system in which cyanobacteria per day will synthesize the components neces-sary for the production of light and consume them at night during the emission of light.
