From 2009.igem.org
This is the first template of the TU Delft 2009 iGEM team wiki! On this page information about the project and its progress can be found.
The Team
This is the second year the TU Delft participates in the iGEM competition. The group consists of : (list of members to come here)
a number of instructors and a lot of advisors, willing to help out and think with us when this is necessary. An overview of the people involved and our competences can be found on the team page.
The Meetings
April 7th, 2009
Minutes, action points

Bologna 2008 - Ecoli.PROM: an Erasable and Programmable Genetic Memory with E. coli The Bologna team created here a genetic memory for E.coli that would switch between two states as a response to a certain signal (a UVc signal would inhibit Lex A (an inhibitor of LacI), thus allowing the production of LacI, whereas an IPTG signal would inhibit LacI and allow the production of TetR).
Cambridge 2008 - iBrain: Foundations for an Artificial Nervous System using Self-Organizing Electrical Patterning In this project, the Cambridge team decided to do three simultaneous sub-projects: one involved the creation of an artificial neurological system for E.coli (using potassium channels to transfer the ion and thus allow for a gradient of the ions), the second involved generating Turing patterns in order to integrate two signalling systems into Bacillus subtilis, and the third part involved generating standardized tools and techniques for B. subtilis. We learned from this project an important lesson: quality is definitely more important than quantity, and there is no point of doing many simultaneous experiments if we cannot finish any one of them properly.

You can write a background of your team here. Give us a background of your team, the members, etc. Or tell us more about something of your choosing.
Welcome to the Wiki of the TU Delft team for iGEM 2009. The site is still under construction, but as soon as it is finished, we hope to keep with the standards of the TU Delft team last year. | |
Tell us more about your project. Give us background. Use this is the abstract of your project. Be descriptive but concise (1-2 paragraphs) With our 7 participants and 4 instructors, we are enthusiastic to start working on our project (whatever it may be). | |
