-
This synthetic biology project will engineer a bacterium from the human gut, Escherichia coli, to detect and fix leaking pipes. Engineered E. coli will detect leaks by homing in on a chemical signal released at the leak site. As the bacteria migrate towards the leak, they will synthesise two proteins, one on the outside of the cell, the other inside, which represent the two components of a biological, protein glue. The adhesive is only activated when the two components mix. The E. coli cells will be engineered to burst at the leak site, mixing the two glue components and creating a sticky protein plug to repair the pipe.

Waehrend die bakterien sich auf die undichtheit zubewegen, fangen sie an zwei proteine zu produzieren, das erste von welchen auserhalb der celle an der cell-wand aufbewahrt wird, waehrend das andere in der cell bleibt. Diese zwei proteine representieren die zwei komponenten eines biologischen protein kleber, dessen kleb-funktion nur  hervortritt wenn die beiden komponenten zussamenkommen. Die E.coli cellen sollen so konstruiert werden das sie platzen wenn sie and der undichten stelle ankommen. Dies bringt die zwei komponenten dazu zussamenzukommen und eine klebriesche protein mixture zu erschaffen die das rohr dicht macht.

Microbial two-component glue to engineer self-healing pipes; The Pico-Plumber

Layperson Summary: This synthetic biology project will engineer a bacterium from the human gut, Escherichia coli, to detect and fix leaking pipes. Engineered E. coli will detect leaks by homing in on a chemical signal released at the leak site. As the bacteria migrate towards the leak, they will synthesise two proteins, one on the outside of the cell, the other inside, which represent the two components of a biological, protein glue. The adhesive is only activated when the two components mix. The E. coli cells will be engineered to burst at the leak site, mixing the two glue components and creating a sticky protein plug to repair the pipe.
