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.
