Team:UC Davis


Welcome

Welcome to iGEM 2012 at UC Davis!

The four of us have been hard at work on this year's project. We've fine tuned a powerful (and simple) part family generation process, and used it to expand the functionality of the LacI promoter, R0010. We also mutated GFP! In addition, we developed an interactive, cross-platform javascript plotting library for displaying scientific data on the web in 3D. We had a great time at the regional competition in Indianapolis and look forward to seeing all of the other teams at the World Championship at MIT!

Our Project

This is the third time a team at UC Davis has competed in the iGEM Jamboree. This year, we are focusing on foundational advances for circuit synthesis. Part families, groups of parts with a unified function and differeing characteristics, are some of the most useful parts of the registry. Our project aims to streamline the process of expanding basic parts into part families, from promoters to protein-coding genes. We set out to create useful mutant libraries of commonly used parts, starting with the repressible LacI promoter. You can read more about our project
We think that thorough characterization should be a priority for all parts submitted to the project. You can view information about our project. You can also review our characterization process and characterization data for LacI on our web page.
This is a template page. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
You are provided with this team page template with which to start the iGEM season. You may choose to personalize it to fit your team but keep the same "look." Or you may choose to take your team wiki to a different level and design your own wiki. You can find some examples.
You MUST have all of the pages listed in the menu below with the names specified. PLEASE keep all of your pages within your teams namespace.



You can write a background of your team here. Give us a background of your team, the members, etc. Or tell us more about something of your choosing.

Tell us more about your project. Give us background. Use this as the abstract of your project. Be descriptive but concise (1-2 paragraphs)
