Dioxins, a family of chemical compounds, pose a serious threat to humans, animals, and the environment. Classified as persistent environmental pollutants, these compounds move up the food chain via bioaccumulation; consequently, they are found in very harmful concentrations by the time the reach humans. Our team has set out to engineer a metabolic pathway for the complete degradation of dioxins, and detoxification of chlorinated compounds. <br /> <br />The pathway would involve the uptake of these pollutants and their subsequent breakdown into molecules that would enter organisms’ native metabolism. We are testing the pathway in S. cerevisiae, and have prepared expression vectors and means to engineer a multitude of plants. By deploying such pathways directly into endemic plants, our solution can be tailored to specific regions. Furthermore, because we can efficiently control plant reproduction, we can responsibly implement synthetic biology to solve this issue in a non-invasive and ecological manner.</p>

Highlights:


We made an open source platform, where local researchers can take our synthetic pathway and conduct a research themselves, inserting it to local plants and other flora as well as improving it for us all.

Our Multiple Organism Optimization Lab Tool for iGEM Allows biologists to optimize codon usage for multiple organisms simultaneously.



We created 40 bp oligos that can be used as primers for all BioBrick parts. When amplified, these “GBs” can be used for Gibson Assembly which can save time and resources.
