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 <a href="https://2008.igem.org/Help:Template/Examples">HERE</a>.

Pollution is a major problem in our society, especially on cities, where the high population density and pollution are congregated. Actually there are some methods for pollutants detection in soil and water, but few methods are available for detecting air pollutants, this type of contamination may seem less obvious, but is alike dangerous for human health and life quality. One of the most released pollutants to the atmosphere is carbon dioxide (<math>$CO_2$</math>), direct product of fossil fuel combustion and mostly responsible for climate change. Our goal is to generate a biobrick whose function is to indirectly detect atmospheric <math>$CO_2$</math> by detecting the compounds formed by the dissociation of <math>$CO_2$</math> in water product of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase.

-
The enzyme carbonic anhydrease’s reaction, in his reduced form is:
+
-
                              <math>$$H_20 + CO_2 \rightarrow HCO_{3}^{-} + H^{+}$$</math>
+
-
This is done almost instantly and is used as a signal by distinct organisms like E.coli, C.albicans and B.antracis associated in the regulation of various virulence factors. Also, an association of the <math>$H^{+}/HCO_{3}^{-}$</math> ratio and the signaling pathway of adenilate cyclase has been seen. The utilization of these genes with reporter proteins can be used to indirectly calculate the concentration of environmental <math>CO_2</math> as a function of the partial pressure  and the speed is assimilated by the liquid medium, the fastest it gets to the saturation point <math>$5\%$</math> the higher is the <math>$CO_2$</math> concentration.
+
-
This is added to the effort of design a possible system for in situ air bioremediation applicable to cities and a campaign of awareness for the population about biology methods, specifically synthetic biology that can improve the quality of the environment and our lives without leaving aside the importance of conservation and environmental care. Our human practices are focus on that direction with workshops, scientific diffusion talks and the possible development of mobile applications that promotes consciousness about the importance of the environmental care and its impact on synthetic biology.
