BRAINSTORM
Previous ideas
Our team began with forty ideas, ranging from a bacterial cream that can dye your hair, to a porin which had been altered to allow inducible opening when in contact with certain proteins. However in the final week of our discussions and multiple presentations we all got behind the idea of a bacteria that could be used as a key. This was initially trashed as it seemed nonsense, however after discussions of a modular differential expression system the idea began to make sense. From this our idea of unique fluorescent bacteria was born, and with it Key.coli. Key.coli is hoped to be an unhackable system that may improve security beyond the capabilities of quantum computers.
CONCEPT ORIGIN
___________________________
Weeks went by, from transposons to baldness cream
Ideas were thought, that were once only a dream
A passion for ideas, porins also may just seem
Nothing of course to those who aren't in the team
A debate every week, yes thats what we held
A plan of action was made and Tom was expelled
The porins were ditched and transposons were dealt
Their finishing blow, at least that's what we all felt
So this is our idea at least for now, okay
Inspiration of one was found on the last day
Bacterial keys is what they say
But will this idea with its aspirations give us our pay?
To use dCas9 to inihibit genes randomly
fluorescent proteins expressed, crimson, emerald and sapphirey
Plasmid parts mixed quite well brownianly
DNA pieces in a soup of a biochemistry degree
Light levels measured to open the door
are they the same as the mother or are you knocked to the floor?
The Police are called to the science parade tour
The Key.coli is created to stop a final world war.
