The Encapsulator
Objectives
- Design, construct and characterize a micro-compartment expression system in E. coli.
- Demonstrate in vivo assembly of the expressed micro-compartments.
- Target a fluorescent marker (eCFP) to the micro-compartment.
- Identify and prioritize candidate enzyme pairs for channeling.
- Apply channeling to selected enzyme pairs.
University of Toronto iGEM Team
This is the wiki of the University of Toronto iGem team at the MaRS Building. This site will be updated with more information as time progresses but in the interest of shameless self promotion. I will be introducing our headline roster for the 2009 competition.
Lab Team
- Kenny Zhan
- James Juras
- Yen Leung
- Meah Gao
- Farhan Raja
Executive Team
- Stacy Hung
- Graham Cromar
- Daniel Wong
- Natalie Yeung
- Conrad Lochovsky
Primary Goals
- 1. Create a standardized, re-useable platform to co-localize enzyme pairs ultimately to investigate the potential for enzyme channeling
- 2. Apply channeling to a pathway of biological and/or biotechnological relevance
