Goals

 +
- Construction and characterization of an inducible or self regulated auto-destructive plasmid
 +
- Tune the differential expression of (at least) two genes within the same plasmid
 +
- Construction of a plasmid which contains the gene of a specific restriction enzyme that, after expression, will destroy the plasmid
 +
- Construction of a plasmid with enough and specific restriction sites which leads to its destruction under restriction enzyme treatment

- Clone and incorporation of the plasmid

- To test one condition and return to the original state without kill the cell or change any of its previous genetic and physiological characteristics

Finally TUDelft team has a project!!!

Self-destructive plasmid

Goals

- Construction and characterization of an inducible or self regulated auto-destructive plasmid - Tune the differential expression of (at least) two genes within the same plasmid - Construction of a plasmid which contains the gene of a specific restriction enzyme that, after expression, will destroy the plasmid - Construction of a plasmid with enough and specific restriction sites which leads to its destruction under restriction enzyme treatment - Clone and incorporation of the plasmid

Why?

- 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!!!

How?

Not known yet :D

Applications

- Cell synchronization - Selectable marker recycling - Metabolic control analysis - Recombination - …
