Creation of a mobilizable broad-host-range plasmid enables the transfer of modularized and abstracted genetic components to act in wide range of organisms that share a similar pool of intermediate metabolites. A broad-host-range mobilizable vector would serve as a channel to "open source" the rich diversity of genetic information between organisms in a laboratory setting.''

The driving force of this inaugural Hawaii team have been the three motivated, dedicated and talented undergraduates: Margaret Ruzicka (PEB 2008), Krystle Salazar (BE 2009) and Grace Kwan (Microbiology 2009), and the trail-blazing MBBE graduate student, Norman Wang. The group has been expertly advised by the three advisors Gernot Presting (MBBE), Sean Callahan (UH-Microbiology), and Loren Gautz (MBBE).

  • [http://genomics.hawaii.edu/prestinglab/ Dr. Gernot Presting]
  • [http://www2.hawaii.edu/~scallaha/SMCsite/ Dr. Sean Callahan]
  • [http://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/mbbe/faculty/gautz.html Dr. Loren Gautz]

Facts

  • The Hawaii team really likes gummi bears and cookies. Our gummy bear diet can be (and often has been) substituted with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_fish Swedish Fish].
    • At the highest consumption rate, we devoured two pounds of gummy bears during a three hour meeting.
  • When combined, Grace's and Krystle's initials are a palindrome (KSGSK). Norman claims they speak and dress alike to confuse faculty and advisors.
