Luxilla Biolamp takes advantage of one the most fascinating natural phenomena: bioluminescence.
We chose for the chassis the cyanobacteria Synechocystis PCC 6803, because it is a photoautotroph and is regulated by circadian rhythms.
Using the lux operon and circadian promoters, we designed two plasmids: the Lusiferase generator is to produce bioluminiscence, and the substrate generator recovers substainably the substrates necessary for the reactions.

Al being lit by bioluminescent bacteria!
