Finally TUDelft team has a project!!!

===Self-destructive plasmid===
+
-
[[Image:TUDelft_logo.png|50px|right|frame]]
+
-
'''Research question:'''
+
-
Can we achieve cell-to-cell communication:
+
-
#Using delay device
+
-
#Using self-destructive plasmid
+
-
#Between two F+ cells
+
-
'''Goals:'''
+
-
<br>
+
-
*Build a delay device that can change the timing of transcribing the target protein
+
-
*Build a plasmid that will produce endonucleases and cut itself into pieces (i.e. destroy itself)
+
-
*Construct a modified F plasmid that will allow F+/F+ conjugation
+
-
<br>
+
-
'''Why?'''
+
-
<br>
+
-
*To test one condition and return to the original state without kill the cell or change any of its previous genetic and physiological characteristics
+
-
*To generate a pulse in the expression of a certain gene
+
-
*To control the amplitude of the pulse created by the plasmid
+
-
*Because it is cool!!!
+
-
<br><br>
+
-
'''How?'''
+
-
<br>
+
-
Not known yet :D
+
-
<br><br>
+
-
'''Applications:'''
+
-
<br>
+
-
*Cell synchronization
+
-
*Selectable marker recycling
+
-
*Metabolic control analysis
+
-
*Recombination
+
-
*…
