Future Work

Better K+ uptake

If a stronger K+ uptake could be made then in pricipal cells could be grown in the same medium as testing was done

  • Up regulate KDP constitutively
  • Find K+ tolerant strains
  • Check maximum trans-membrane potential

Move to Bacillus

Need to make GluR0 Bacillus compatible

  • Codon bias already favourable for Bacillus
  • Need to put different promoter and RBS
  • Integrate into genome?

Voltage Gated Potassium Channel

To get self propogating signal we need to find and construct a voltage gated potassium channel.

  • Relatively rare in Prokaryotes
  • Some available although not well characterised, such as Kch
  • Overexpress and see if it improves output.
