Temporal Control
In our project there are 3 forms of temporal control that have been implemented.
- Chemical induction: Triggers the production of the polypeptide of interest using IPTG. Effectively 'kicks off' the system once the cell density is high enough.
- Autoinduction: Represses encapsulation when glucose levels are high, and kick starts it once glucose is used up. This allows a sufficient amount of protein production to have taken place before the cell focuses its resources on encapsulation.
- Thermoinduction: Triggers genome deletion when the temperature is increased. Thermoinduction was necessary, as chemical induction may be blocked by the presence of the capsule (that inhibits diffusion).
