| - | == '''2. Human Voice Induced Gene Circuit Using Electrically Induced Promoters:''' ==
| |
| - |
| |
| - | In this project, our aim is to use human voice as a signal, and stimulate
| |
| - | a biological system in bacteria by this signal. For this purpose, first
| |
| - | human voice is converted to electrical signals by an designed electronic
| |
| - | device. In the second part of the project electrical signals coming from
| |
| - | electronical device stimulate a promoter and induce a gene expression.
| |
| - | According to frequency of voice, different currents are created by device,
| |
| - | and we will try to activate different systems in bacteria by different
| |
| - | currents.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | To see whether this system will work or not, we are planning to use marker
| |
| - | genes (such as GFP, RFP or luciferase) as activated by electric stimulus.
| |
| - | If we succeed to run this system, the future perspectives are to put more
| |
| - | complicated gene circuits under this mechanism.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | We will use Bacillus Subtilis 168 strain for this project since it is more
| |
| - | resistant to environmental stress than E.coli.
