Overall project

1. Sensitivity of a biosensor

2. Logic gates

Biosensor

Using a random mutagenesis method directed at the promoter binding sites, we intend to construct a library of varying strength pBAD promoters coupled to a GFP reporter gene. Sequencing of select mutated promoters will result in a collection of pBAD variants that cover a wide range promoter sensitivity.

The Experiments

1. Random mutagenesis of pBAD promoter sequence.
2. Quantification of mutant promoter-driven GFP fluorescence.
3. Sequencing of select mutants.
4. BioBrick design and submission.

Results

Logic Gates
