Aim


  • We designed and ordered the gBlocks for 4 genes, which encoded for proteins involved in hydrogen production (fer, hyd1, hydEF, hydG) from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
  • Improved gBlock hydG which demonstrated a loss of functionality (2016) due to a point mutation.
  • These gBlocks were inserted into one Biobrick (known as the Hydrogen Producing Gene Cluster) and transformed into Escherichia coli with a lac promoter and chloramphenicol resistance.
  • Once induced, we aimed to test the rate of hydrogen gas production in these cells.


Here you can describe the results of your project and your future plans.
