E. lemming aims to modify the chemotaxis property of E.coli such that, instead of response to a chemical attractant or repellent, the bacterium responds to a light stimulus. Furthermore, this light sensitivity is used to control E.coli’s movement by deciding, at any given time, which type of motion the bacterium will adopt (tumbling or straight run). This leads to a controllable E.coli, which can move to a defined direction, as a result of the combination of tumbling and straight run. The bacteria in the experiment are imaged and, by image processing, the position of a single tracked cell is inferred. By activating a light switch, the user decides whether the bacterium should continue running or should change direction.
