Our contributions to the iGEM and SynBio World

• Expansion of inducer library.

One of the biggest problem in Synthetic Biology is only a few numbers of inducer of transcriptional regulators.

• Diverse regulatory region library by Systematic design/construction

As long as we use previous iGEM methods, it is arduous to construct regulatory regions to which multiple transcriptional regulators bind.

Combinatorial rewiring of these parts allows replacing regulators. For example, if so, we can replace the regulator binding sites between between -10 and RBS.
