          'With more and easier access to high-calorie
+
-
foods the worldwide prevalence of obesity has
+
-
been on the rise in the past quarter century. In
+
-
Canada alone, the average rate of obesity has
+
-
doubled from 1979 to 2004, and approximately
+
-
23% of Canadian adults are obese (As estimated
+
-
by Statistics Canada). Obesity is typically
+
-
associated with many adverse health conditions
+
-
and puts an enormous strain on the public
+
-
healthcare system. Our goal is to engineer a
+
-
strain of Lacobacillus to express the enzymes
+
-
required for the synthesis of cellulose from glucose
+
-
in an attempt to reduce the caloric intake
+
-
of obese individuals. Cellulose is a polymer of
+
-
linked D-glucose units that cannot be digested
+
-
by humans. Lactobacillus is a strain of bacteria,
+
-
which is commonly used to make yogurt,
+
-
cheese, beer and other fermented foods, and
+
-
is in fact part of the natural human gut fl ora.
+
-
The idea would be to have an obese individual
+
-
ingest yogurt containing our engineered strain
+
-
of bacteria as a probiotic. That way after they
+
-
have consumed their meal, a portion of the
+
-
glucose from the meal would be converted into
+
-
cellulose in the intestines, effectively reducing
+
-
their caloric intake.

        We are a team consisting of 3 scientific advisors and 12 undergraduate students from the University of Ottawa. This is the first year that the University of Ottawa has recruited a team to participate in the iGem competition. Our team members have a variety of backgrounds and areas of expertise. Feel free to take a look at our team page to find out more about us.
