The 2017 UT Austin iGEM Team would like to thank everyone who has helped us throughout this arduous, yet rewarding journey. It is because of their gracious support that we are able to celebrate the success of our project today.

The following labs, postdocs, and graduate students have contributed to our project:

  • Sean Leonard for providing project guidance, erythromycin, and various plasmids including pMSP3535, pBAV1k-T5-LUX, and pBAV1k-T5-gfp
  • Kate Elston for providing project guidance, a workshop on conjugation technique, and numerous Golden Gate part plasmids.
  • Julie Perreau for providing project guidance and a workshop on conjugation technique
  • Dr. Peng Geng for providing the gfp dropout and M13 terminator Golden Gate part plasmids
  • The Barrick lab for providing us with reagents, lab equipment, and, when necessary, a lab space with which to conduct our research
  • The BioBricks FRI stream for providing DH5-Alpha E. coli cells for chemical transformations

    • The following iGEM team members contributed to various parts of our project:

  • Andrew Ly for assembling part plasmids and the P8/P32 promoter and gadB overexpression cassette plasmids in E. coli, working on creating a Golden Gate compatible pMSP3535 vector, and characterizing the erythromycin suscpetibility of E. coli.
  • Andrea Martinez for helping with blue chromoprotein optimization and collaboration efforts.
  • Rachel Johnson for work done on Human and Integrated Practices, transforming Lactobacillus plantarum, and part plasmid assembly.
  • Eve Sharpee for working on the modeling involved in our project and part plasmid assembly.
  • Ian Overman for completing the Interlab study.
  • Jayvin Patel for finishing the judging forms and ensuring iGEM deadlines were met.
  • Kevin Prabhu for working on aspects of the wiki.
  • Matthew Hooper for leading our collaboration efforts with Texas Tech and Rice.
  • Milki Negeri for completing the safety forms.
  • Surta Dave for work done on blue chromoprotein optimization.
  • Zachary Martinez for spearheading the design and implementation of the wiki page.

    • All members contributed to the wiki page.

    The following institutions graciously met up and collaborated with our team:

  • Rice University
  • Texas Tech University

    • The following people gave us their expert advice, which helped us to shape our project direction:

  • Dr. Roger Gammons for expansive advice on how to implement our project
  • Dr. Qingchun Tong for guidance in developing our project
  • Dr. David Weiss for information about his current GABA research
  • Micki Marquardt for helping us shape our future project direction and helping to consider ethical concerns.


    • We recevied monetary support from the following sources:

  • The Freshmen Research Initiative at UT Austin
  • The Molecule Biosciences department at UT Austin
  • The Center for Learning and Memory at UT Austin
  • BEACON
