14 Aug 2023: GFP background. Aequorea victoria are brightly luminescent jellyfish, with glowing points around the margin of the umbrella. Light arises from yellow tissue masses that each consist of about 6000-7000 photogenic cells. The cytoplasm of these cells

14 Aug 2023: Maturation of green fluorescent protein. The post-translational maturation of GFP to the fluorescent form involves a number of steps. In the first step, the GFP apoprotein presumably must fold into a catalytically active conformation that

14 Aug 2023: Research projects in the Haseloff Laboratory. Synthetic Biology is an emerging field that employs engineering principles to construct new genetic systems. The approach is based on the use of well characterised and reusable DNA components, and

14 Aug 2023: Part 1B Cellular & Developmental Biology. Plant Development. Prof. Jim Haseloff, University of Cambridge. Summary:. These four lectures cover some striking features of biological self-organisation and morphogenesis using examples from the model plant

14 Aug 2023: Cambridge-JIC teams in the international Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition. iGEM is an international undergraduate synthetic biology competition where student teams are given access to DNA parts from the Registry of Standard

14 Aug 2023: iGEM2010 project: E. glowli. The Cambridge iGEM2010 team worked on regeneration systems for bioluminescence and better, brighter light output, different coloured luciferases, instrumentation for quantitation and modelling the feasibility of using

14 Aug 2023: iGEM2009 project: E. chromi. The Cambridge iGEM2009 team created two kits of parts to facilitate the design and construction of biosensors in the the future. These complement genetically engineered bacterial biosensors that enable bacteria to

14 Aug 2023: iGEM2006 project: Self-organisation. Multicellular organisms undergo self-organisation during development. Our aim was to engineer self-organised pattern formation in free swimming bacteria cells by providing them with an artificial system allowing
