Improved Parts

The following constructs are improved by being cloned and confirmed to be into the pSB1C3 plasmid, thus making them able to express in E. coli and used for iGEM user applications. Our project focuses on encapsulation of cargo by protein nanocompartments. This technology can be used to encapsulate cell free systems. The Next Vivo project, designed by the Lethbridge iGEM team in 2017 is therefore an important and viable application for our toolkit. We hope in the future to try encapsulating this system as an alternative to liposome encapsulation as previously proposed for this project. The ability to target cell types could increase the cell free technology we are still developing.
