Making E. coli Glow

Preliminary Design: -Light Sensing Inhibitor- -> -Light emission device-

Light Sensing Inihibitor: [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I15008 BBa_I15008] , [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I15009 BBa_I15009] , [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I15010 BBa_I15010] , [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R0082 BBa_R0082]

Light Emission Device: (from lux [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operon operon]) THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO.


Lux Operon
