UMaryland iGEM

Under construction - just like our campus!

Here's a cute testudo.

We're sorry this wiki is incomplete.

Hey y'all! We're UMaryland iGEM!

We are working on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic degradation through the use of the enzyme PETase. We plan to increase the efficiency of PETase by binding it to bacterial cellulose. The cellulose acts as a net for the PET, hence our project name PET NET. We're also working on this wiki. If stuff you are looking for is missing, it's probably because we haven't finished this wiki yet. If the stuff you are looking for is here, well you're pretty lucky because we barely have anyhting here.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at umarylandigem@gmail.com.

Check out some of the pages we have actually done, such as our Mid-Atlantic Meetup page.

yeah we realize this is not so pretty. we're working on it.
