Arsenic Avengers
- Our team is located at Glacier Peak High School in Snohomish, WA.
- We have eight members.
- Our mentors are Eric Lagally, Ms. Caraballo,and Nick Chavkin (UW bioengineering).
Project Introduction
This semester was focused on introducing ourselves to the competition of iGEM, as well as determining our project. The Grizzlies have come to the conclusion to utilize the genes in E. coli that detect and flush out arsenic to determine levels of the element in the waters of Puget Sound. If arsenic is present, we have planned to insert a reporter gene that, when synthesized, will turn the E. coli dark green.
To make this vision a reality, we are using an arsR promoter, a dark green E. chromi reporter from the 2009 Cambridge team's project.
