Our team of 8 undergrads spent a summer conceiving, designing, constructing, and testing a new system for sensing and reporting alternative fuel source concentrations. We were lucky enough to be invited to the world championship jamboree at MIT in Cambridge, MA, and this was our presentation for our 20 minute talk. Let me just say, I absolutely love how these slides turned out. However, it definitely makes more sense with our explanations, so check the whole talk out at the iGEM results website: http://2011.igem.org/files/video/Wisconsin-Madison_Championship.mp4

Notas del editor
- Centers funded by the DoE
- 10% oxygenate components to burn cleaner originally. 40% of corn goes to ethanol (look this up!)Credit right Amyris Biotech
- More general (proteins/RNAs, turn something on somehow)
- J-to-E
- Shorten like hell
- 10h
- Directed evolution is an extremely powerful process that allows us to fine tune reporters to our liking but one of its side effects is that during the mutagenesis process, we end with a large collection of mutants or a mutant library. Adding these mutants to the registry allows other teams to access to our previous work and would eventually help create a diverse library of mutants.
- The current method of submitting these mutants would be to create a brand new part for each mutant.The is problem with this is that there is no native method of indicating the relation between the mutagenized part and its parent part without just explicitly stating it in the description and This becomes an issue as more and more mutants are added and the registry gets flooded with mutants, making navigation more difficult.
- What we propose is to introduce native functions to the registry that allows for the addition of mutant libraries in a clear and well-organized fashion. Currently, this is what the top bar right now looks like the registry.First we propose to add another tab called the mutant library tab.
- This tab would display any and all information regarding mutants related to the part if applicable as well as allow the modification of the mutant library.
- The real meat and potatoes of our proposal is in our second addition, which appends any part that has a mutant library with a mutant library information section shown in the red box above. It would contain an auto-generated mutagenesis tree as well as display information about the part’s direct offspring.
- Taking a look at the mutagenesis tree itself, we see that parent-offspring relations are marked with a solid line and arranged vertically, while sibling relations are marked with a dashed line and arranged horizontally.Upon mouseover of any part, we see a popup displaying a condensed version of the parents, siblings, offspring parts in addition to the ability to edit this library.
- If our mutant library proposal is incorporated into the registry. We believe that we will create a much more organized system in relation to mutants which will provide a much more user friendly experience to future users. By making the system easy to use, we hope that teams will take advantage of it and keep improving the registry.
- So we talked a little about sharing mutangenized parts, but with iGEM, sharing doesn’t have to just mean parts…”
- We also wanted to share our experiences in being a part of iGEM to others.This is a picture taken of the national science Olympiad jamboree in which we set up a table and talked about what we learned from igem and synthethic biology hollisiticallyWe also created a game that involved the pairing of reporters, inducers and genes which we plan on submitting to community bricks.
- In addition, we also served as peer mentors to the madion’s REU program. We represented the synthetic biology division among the other sciences at the REU program. This is part of our team at the poster session near the end of the summer.
- Finally, we also pursued outreach through social media. You guys can follow us at LabBadger to see how our project is progressing in the future.
- We would like to thank the college of engineering at madison,JohnGreenler, Andrew Greenberg and the great lakes bioenergy research center for funding our efforts.
- Any questions?
