Concept
The light in the morning leaking from a gap between the curtains... this morning lights calls and awakes the E. coli.
Suprise!!
The E. coli become bigger and bigger like BALLOON!!!
→World first bacteria that swells by lights.!!!
Design
First The E. coli doesn't have photoreceptor. But... #
- stop the motor protein's expression(motB protein: from last year's parts)
- controling chemotaxis
etc
we chose to control chemotaxis. We've found out, from the paper(..see refrences), the chemoreceptor that fix the e.coli tumble. it is a fragment of the chemoreceptor "Tsr" (a serin receptor)from aa 290 to 551. we call this tsr-cw(or tsr290).
