Goals
Module 1 builds synthetic haploid strains with refactored mating loci that are conjugated to make a functional IOD. These strains have the wild-type mating phenotype and differentially express a reprogrammed signalling pathway in their diploid state proving the feasibility of the clone-free assembly concept.
- Constructed a set of reporter promoters for yeast cells
- Characterized reporter promoters in all mating types
- Designed and materialized synthetic MATa and MATx strains
- Built a synthetic diploid strain with a functional yeast pheromone pathway
- Demonstrated the correct functionality of yeast pheromone pathway in synthetic diploids
Module 2 builds a set of orthogonal pheromones and receptors. These pheromone-receptor pairs enable specific localized signalling proving the feasibility of multichannel signal transmission underlying logic operations necessary for reliable diagnosis.
- Constructed a set of yeast plasmids with different mating pheromones and their receptors and contributed to the Registry with 6 BioBricks
- Verified the correct coupling of the receptors to the yeast pheromone mating pathway
- Verified the correct expression and secretion of the different pheromones
- Showed the orthogonality of the used receptors and pheromones
Module 3 builds a set of location tags that recognize common tumor surface markers and agglutinate cell populations. Location tags displayed in the correct conformation strengthen cell-cell interactions to enable localization of signal transmission.
- Expressed streptavidin, EpCAM, Anti-EpCAM scFv, c-Myc scFv and anti-HuA scFv on the surface of yeasts
- Demonstrated the ability of our receptors to bind chosen markers
- Monitored the dynamic binding of our receptors and their corresponding markers
