At Warwick iGEM we are passionate about the art of science, the way we can meld biology with design to make a product greater than the sum of its parts. We were inspired by this paper (http://www.nature.com/nmeth/journal/v10/n5/full/nmeth.2407.html) on using zinc fingers to barcode cells with fluorescently tagged double stranded DNA oligos; and considered whether it was possible to use these same zinc finger proteins in a way that has never been done before. By modifying our cells to express zinc finger binding domains on the outside of the cell wall could we, in the same manner that the DNA is bound to the cells in the paper, instead bind the cells to fixed structured DNA on a 2D plane? And then, using existing DNA origami research, could we expand this into creating self assembling 3D cell structures.
