We need to come up with some ideas for our project. It might help to look at some of the [http://parts.mit.edu/igem07/index.php/Presentations presentations from last year]. Some ideas have been posted at the
[http://openwetware.org/wiki/IGEM:Idea_exchange iGEM idea exchange]. Also look at a list of the [http://openwetware.org/wiki/SynBERC:MIT/Calendar/2007-8-8 most wanted Biobrick parts].
Project Ideas
- Antibody-production in E.coli
- The Warsaw team is doing this [http://openwetware.org/wiki/IGEM:UW]. Could we do it differently?
- Detoxification through E.coli (e.g. Mercury)
- Great idea, but the MIT team did something like this in 2007 [http://openwetware.org/wiki/IGEM:MIT/2007]. Maybe we could take it farther? Or we could focus on another contaminant (not mercury).
- The Edinburgh team designed a biosensor that detects arsenic in 2006 [http://parts.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/University_of_Edinburgh_2006]. It could be useful to read about their project.
- Detection and removal of E. coli strains that cause illness, such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escherichia_coli_O157:H7 E. coli. O157:H7].
- Spider silk production in bacteria.
- E.coli-Rugby
- One group of E.coli expresses GFP if it reaches some kind of goal via chemotaxis (touchdown). Another group of E.coli uses chemotaxis to find the ones from group one and expresses CFP if it reaches them (block)
