Demonstrate

Compared with the standard spectrogram, the peak time of SAM product is about 6.0, and the internal standard is added to confirm the peak shape of SAM. Because SAM exists widely in all kinds of organisms, there is also a SAM peak in contrast. However, the SAM yield of engineered bacteria was two times that of the control. Unfortunately, the SAM2 gene from yeast has not been able to detect the increase in yield. It was found that SAM2 gene contained many rare codons of lactic acid bacteria, which affected translation and resulted in no protein expression.

Gold Medal Criterion #4

Teams that can show their system working under real world conditions are usually good at impressing the judges in iGEM. To achieve gold medal criterion #4, convince the judges that your project works. There are many ways in which your project working could be demonstrated, so there is more than one way to meet this requirement. This gold medal criterion was introduced in 2016, so check our what 2016 teams did to achieve their gold medals!
