Aromatic Bacteria : Chiba 2006
From 2006.igem.org
Wow!! By lighting bacteria, a refreshing scent stars filling the room. In the dark, the light sensing E.coli will turn orenge. With the red light on, the color of E.coli fades out, and aroma is produced instead.

How it works
Firstly,we are going to make E.coli that smell good.
Secondary,We are going to make light receptor that react different wavelength.
PCB react light about 660nm. PΦB PEB

agenda
- 9/5--We solved a problem at yesterday. PUC-EBI was very dirty. So it caused a lot of problem. After cleaning it, We got clean band of PUC-EBI（linear）.
- 9/4--We want to make PUC-EBIY. We got EBIY (it's orenge color),but couldn't get PUC(vector).A band of PUC-EBI（linear）was very weak ,and We could see several band. So we discussed what caused this problem.
- 8/29--We discussed light sensor bacteria.
- 8/12--Our first experiment using an aroma oil(Sweet Flavor-smells like orange). 10μl of oil was necessary for LB培地(solid and liquid) to smell good, or at least, better.
- 8/4 -- We created parts J29021(generator-3 enzymes that is used to produce a lycopene) and J29022(device-light receptor and LacI).
- 8/4 -- We added EuY(J29030) and carene cyclase(J29036) to the Registry. 4 changes were made to carene cyclase to remove restriction sites of ecoR1 and pst1.
