<h3>Tips</h3>
+
<p>This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started: </p>
+
<ul>
+
<li>State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start. </li>
+
<li>Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.</li>
+
<li>You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.</li>
+
<li>Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.  </li>
+
<li>Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.  </li>
+
<li>Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the <a href="https://2018.igem.org/Calendar">iGEM 2018 calendar</a> </li>
+
<li>Have lots of fun! </li>
+
</ul>

Using Stem Cell and CRISPR Technology to
Combat Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency

ABSTRACT

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin deficiency is a common genetic disorder -- the defective gene for which is carried by 1 in 25 people -- which arises from a single base pair mutation in the SERPINA1 gene, resulting in the production of a form of antitrypsin prone to polymerization. The mutated antitrypsin then builds up in liver cells and is unable to inhibit proteases in the lungs, leading to damage in both. Using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, we aimed to fix the error in SERPINA1 so that proper antitrypsin can be produced. We will show proof of concept in E. Coli cells using osmy secretion tags and GFP as a reporter. We hope to design a liver organ bud using IPS cell technology to deliver function A1AT through collaboration with Dr. Kagimoto of Healios Japan KK.
