  He also pointed out us the various tools of molecular biology which we will have probably to use during handling:

margin: 0 auto;
-
•        Microscopy, etc

}
-
    It will be useful for us also to reflect, in the case of our subject, for the excretion of our product, with one or the other sequence signal, with resistances to antibiotics, a possible system poison-antidote,…
+
html body div.header {

All that depending obviously on the way in which will arrange the project.
+
/* ===== banner ===== */
-
Our frame is : Escherichia coli.
+
/* banner = large image on the top of the page, begind the title */
-
With regard to the prices decreed for the contest, to obtain a certain medal, it is necessary to carry out a certain number of tasks; in short (for more details: https://2009.igem.org/Judging/Judging_Criteria):
+
html body div.header div.banner {
 +

    background-repeat: no-repeat;
 +
}
-
For a bronze medal, it is necessary:
+

 +
padding-top: 50px;
 +
   
 +
text-align: center;
 +
    text-decoration: none;

-
• To fill a report/ratio of project
+
color: #4E7DB7;
 +
font-size: 40px;
 +
}
-
·        To create a wiki
+
html body div.header ul {
 +
    /* these are common to both 'menu' and 'submenu' */
 +
margin-top: 0px;
 +
margin-bottom: 0px;
 +
   
 +

 +
    list-style-image: none;

-
·        Te create  a poster and to present the project orally
+
/* ===== menu ===== */
-
·        To imagine a new part Biobrick (theoretical point of view) with informing well/describing! (note: PoPS = polymerase a second, the measuring unit)
+
/* menu = horizontal bar containing the main links to other sections of the wiki */
-
For a money medal, it is necessary:
+
html body div.header div.menu {
 +
    background-color: #3E6DA4;
 +
color: white;
 +
   
 +

In addition to these medals, there are different other prices detailed here. One also speaks about “under-competitions” among which it is necessary to choose in which field between our subject.

A priori, our project is part of  in the category “Best manufacturing project”.

For the absents : this page gives very full with super information interesting, it would be well to take time to read the contents of it to have the clearer ideas for certain things and according to your basic training.
+
/* submenu = changing horizontal bar containing the main links to subsections of other sections of the wiki */

At the end of the morning and until the following day afternoon, we carried out some basic handling of molecular biology which will be more useful to us in the continuation of the project:

In end-of-day of Thursday, meeting to decide tasks to make soon, essentially biblio, to see list written by Hugo. Each one is held to get information about a little all that was defined, by making a SORTING of information before subjecting it to all so that one is not drowned under the mass of information.

Molecular biology and Cell Biology Cellular reminders.

Choice of frame: Escherichia coli.


  • Brainstorming.
  • Focusing on biofilms and especially on Caulobacter crescentus glue biosynthesis pathway.


Purpose : to transfer the Caulobacter crescentus holdfast polysaccharide biosynthesis pathway to E. Coli. The holdfast is an elactic and strongly adhesive material with gel-like properties1.
