Salmonella selection:abstract A

Salmonella typhimurium

VNP20009 (VNP) has unique characteristics of high tumor targeting and low toxicity. It can highly colonize central parts of tumor tissues. Our project aims to decrease the influence of the bacteria on normal tissues by enhancing the bacteria's ability of tumor targeting through modifying the amino acid metabolism pathways. We also use VNP as a vector to express exogenous genes with anaerobic promoters in the upper stream to further improve the effect of tumor targeting. Thus, it can be a efficient method of cancer treatment with the bacteria. ...learn more>>

Salmonella:a kind of harmful bacterium may be the light to a harmful disease.
Anaerobic promoter:it can lead to the expression of some antitumor agents directly inside the tumor

Our team consists of senior and junior students from departments of Life Science, Computer Science and Journalism and Communication. We come together and work together for one common goal. Though there were difficulties and obstacles during the process, we didn't give up and gave all our efforts. Thanks to iGEM for giving us a chance for us to meet each other and work together and we will do our best.
5.12(all) This is our first regular meeting since we formed our iGEM team. During this meeting, we introduced ourselves to each other, and learned more about our goal. Our team consists of sophomore and junior students from different departments.
The first section was given by Kevin about the general background of iGEM and the specific requirements of the competition. The techniques that could be used in our experiments were also introduced, and it's lucky to know that we have already learned the fundamental knowledge of these techniques.
