The list of the ideas generated from the brainstorm |
|
The coexistence of organisms has been in the focus of research interests for a while, revealing the interactions between species not only contributes to the deeper understanding of natural systems but also provides perspectives for more efficient coculture of organisms that function in pharmaceutical engineering and soil remediation. As in prisoners’ dilemma, the bacteria in our design are faced with two solutions for coexistence, they could either choose to cooperate with one another by providing inducers to express their partners’ antibiotics-resistance genes or they could take a foe strategy in which no cooperation is needed for both strains’ survival. |
|
To realize this goal, toggle switches have been built to regulate the interactions between the two strains. As is shown in the illustration above, we used kanamycin and chloramphenicol as the selective forces. When auto-inducers, either AHL or BHL is introduced to the culture, LuxPr or Prhl will be activated to produce the auto-inducers required by their partners, and express the anti-biotic resistant genes to ensure each other’s survival. During the process, PBad/arac and Plac will be repressed because of the repressors Arac and LacI expressed by LuxPr and PrhI. |
