UCL iGEM 2017 presents
LIT(Light Induced Technologies)
We developed applications for biological light switches. The mission was to standardise optogenetic tools for wider use in synthetic biology and to show how we can apply them in tissue engineering, building architectural structures and producing bacterial light-bulbs.
We used biological light switches to design an organ printing system
Our bacterial light bulb controls its luminescence through a photosensitive protein.
Two optogenetic tools help us make 3D structures out of bacteria and produce biopolymers.
