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... #


  1. stop the motor protein's expression(motB protein: from last year's parts)
  2. 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).
