Project Design
The initial idea of doing a project on catnip came from our advisor *Xuan Wang who mentioned to us the fact that catnip can be used as a green pesticide. Alexis Zeng did further research and saw the possibility of using a co-culture system for manufacturing. Lucinda Lin When we search for strategies to optimize the microbial production, our primary PI *Dr. Haoqian Zhang recommended the use of TALE stabilized promoters.
