Function

The purpose of the actuator is to convert PoPS -> Cool

Description

Takes in PoPS from signal processor and converts into Action. If no signal processor, take in PoPs from Recievers

Goals

    • Collect the known reporters from both FecA and ToxR studies
    • Make sure reporter parts that are part of plasmids get here
    • Biobrick these parts
    • Test parts by using constitutive promoter

Current Status

  • Some parts specified
  • No parts made
  • [[../Actuators under consideration/]]

Experiments

  • put GFP under constitutive reporter
  • pcr out lacZ

Open Issues/Questions

  • What are people planning to do for experiments to test for the overall signalling of the system?
  • Actuator compatable with analog/digital signal
  • LVA degradation time
  • What is cool?
    • TK has all sorts of luciferase
    • DE knows somebody in MN who has all sort of pigment genes cloned
    • motility?
