Team:Warsaw

Our team consists of 9 students of Faculty of Biology, University of Warsaw. This is the first time a group from Poland participates in the iGEM competition. Our plans were really amazing: we wanted to create system of biological machines which would allow to investigate protein interactions and simultaneously change sequence of one of them in order to achieve the strongest possible interaction. To make it work we planned to express the tested protein in a bacterial strain in which it would be mutated. Selection would occur outside outer bacterial membrane, where the protein would be attached. We planned that such selection system would allow us to search for antibodies with new specificities or screen protein libraries.
