Inverter
The LMU-Munich 2011 Team started a project to convert a positive input signal into a negative output or a negative input signal into a positive output.
Last year LMU-Munich designed a metal-sensing device. However, it turned out that some of the promoters that respond to metal ions are negativly regulated. So there was a need of an inverter, a genetic part that converts the repression of the metal sensing promoter in a positive output.
Since such a genetic part would be a very beneficial tool, Julia, who also participated in iGEM 2011, continued the work from last year and got some great results.
