Brown 2006 iGEM entry

As the race to the finish draws near for iGEM 2006, our team has compiled a detailed summary of our summers work. This includes our initial ideas, designs, models and the parts that we have added to the registry. We began the summer with grand plans to design a game of bacterial freeze tag, modeled after the popular children's game where one player tries to catch the other. Our efforts were then switched to the extension of the bi-stable toggle switch and the design of a tri-stable toggle switch. Our projects highlight the team's creative and innovative approaches to designing and engineering working biological systems.
