Revision as of 12:30, 30 October 2006
I am a PhD student of the GRK 1305/1 “Plant Signal Systems” program in The Freiburg University[1]. I am working on the detection and visualization of Arabidopsis thaliana root mRNA in Prof. Palme’s research group[2]. I am interested in bringing science and design together. I like DNA and iGEM Competition.

Individual project: Nike nano collection (Blouse and Skirt)
The dress design is more interesting than a chip design (in my opinion ;). It is very individual and very fashionable. We want to follow fashion, don’t we?
On the another hand, a broad range of variable forms can be important for an artificial life. I play with DNA like with my Barbie doll.
The idea was to knit a nice blouse for Barbie without any boundary conditions. I used two methods of knitting:
1) a rectilinear merge pattern, and
2) a staggered merge pattern
in the terms of Paul Rothemund. The first one is simpler to understanding; the second one is more practical for patterning. Only if you use a staggered merge pattern, can you put all hairpins onto one side of the knitted DNA sheet with a maximal density.
Have a look at the pictures:
This design is for M13mp18 scaffold DNA. I use the fork hairpin
BBa_J35001
to create the Nike-logo pattern.
Other ones would be:
BBa_J35003,
BBa_J35004,
BBa_J35005,
BBa_J35006,
BBa_J35007.
Your choose!
My photos will help you.

 BBa_J35004 |
 BBa_J35005 |
 BBa_J35006 |
 BBa_J35007 |
Another pretty possibility is the hybrids (color)FP with DNA-binding proteins that bind to specific staples, e.g. BBa_J35030
