The human gut houses a diverse collection of microorganisms, with important implications for the health and welfare of the host. We aim to engineer a member of this microbial community to provide innovative medical treatments. Our work focuses on four main areas: (1) pathogen defense either by expression of [[Team:Caltech/Project/Phage_Pathogen_Defense|<font style="color:#BB4400">pathogen-specific bacteriophage</font>]] or by targeted bursts of [[Team:HKUST/Project/Oxidative_Burst|<font style="color:#BB4400">reactive oxygen species</font>]]; (2) prevention of birth defects by [[Team:Caltech/Project/Vitamins|<font style="color:#BB4400">folate over-expression</font>]] and delivery; (3) treatment of [[Team:Caltech/Project/Lactose_intolerance|<font style="color:#BB4400">lactose intolerance</font>]] by cleaving lactose to allow absorption in the large intestine; and (4) [[Team:Caltech/Project/Population_Variation|<font style="color:#BB4400">regulation</font>]] of these three treatment functions to produce renewable subpopulations specialized for each function. Our research demonstrates that synthetic biology techniques can be used to modify naturally occurring microbial communities for applications in biomedicine and biotechnology.

Welcome

Hi folks!

Welcome to our team wiki!

We are the 2009 iGEM team from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) .This is our 2nd year to join the competition. Following last year's experience of producing meaningful biological products - creating real and controllable randomness from our nature, we are now presenting how we can improve our environment by making a new type of bio-pesticide, yet this time it is totally environmental friendly!

The logo below shows our idea: No more drosophilae! Let's enjoy our wikipage and see how we achieve it!

Our logo: No more Lovely drosophila!
