Project DescriptionOur current work was inspired by the ability of a thermosensitive ion channel, known as TRPV1, to import calcium into the cell in response to temperature changes. This process could one day be used to provide a method of In-Silico control of genetic circuits in synthetic biology. Our project explores the characterization of a calcium-sensitive reporter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to monitor gene expression levels in a range of temperatures.

- For aim 1, we will use eGFP tagged TRPV1 to confirm expression and localization. - For aim 2, we will use calcium imaging to confirm functionality of TRPV1. - For aim 3, we will determine conditions of reporter expression with and without TRPV1 expression.
About UsThe Lubbock_TTU Team is part of a student organization at Texas Tech University known as iGEM Raiders. This year, the iGEM Raiders team is composed of 11 undergraduate and graduate students. To learn more about our team, click here.
