Project Descriptions
Antibiotics have played an important role in human society. However, microorganisms keep becoming more and more resistant to them every day. This is called antimicrobial resistance, or AMR.
The AMR is due to the expression of related resistance genes, which are being widely used as screening markers. But no effective method has been applied to ensure that resistance genes are not released into the environment. This situation poses a great threat to the society and is what we hope to solve this summer.
Our goal is to eliminate any resistance gene from bacteria used in labs and factories after they’ve complete their missions. Our project builds an inducible system inside those bacteria that can allow them to cut up their own resistance genes and kills them finally. Our work will contain three subsystems, the induce system to make the whole process controllable, the CRISPR system to target and cut resistance genes and the lysis system to kill bacteria after the resistance genes were cut.
What should this page contain?
- A clear and concise description of your project.
- A detailed explanation of why your team chose to work on this particular project.
- References and sources to document your research.
- Use illustrations and other visual resources to explain your project.
Inspiration
See how other teams have described and presented their projects:
Advice on writing your Project Description
We encourage you to put up a lot of information and content on your wiki, but we also encourage you to include summaries as much as possible. If you think of the sections in your project description as the sections in a publication, you should try to be concise, accurate, and unambiguous in your achievements.
References
iGEM teams are encouraged to record references you use during the course of your research. They should be posted somewhere on your wiki so that judges and other visitors can see how you thought about your project and what works inspired you.
