This year, the Synthetic BiOWLogists are focusing on two new projects. The first project is the creation of BioBeer by incorporation of the resveratrol biosynthetic pathway into the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome. Resveratrol production during fermentation will be quantified and compared with different natural resveratrol sources. The second project is the construction of a novel virus mediated signal amplification system. The initial focus of this project will be to detect and report the presence of an extremely small proportion of a target genotype in a mixed population. (David Ouyang)
