                            We are a team of 8 students from Chalmers University of Technology who  will represent Gothenburg, SWEDEN in this year’s IGEM competition. IGEM  stands for International Genetically Engineered Machines and is a   competition based upon interdisciplinary collaboration of students on a  Synthetic Biology project. The competition is held in MIT, Boston and is  open to all universities from various countries world-wide. There are  180 teams participating this year with about 2000 students in total. We  have started with a promising idea that combines the cutting edge  technologies available in the field of Synthetic Biology. Our research  basically includes the specification and designing of a biological  system followed by the application of Molecular Biology techniques to  build and test it experimentally. The premise of the competition for the  students will be to learn engineering approaches and tools to organize,  model, and assemble complex systems and to immerse themselves in  applied molecular biology. In the project, we are investigating a  biological phenomenon that is a part of insulin uptake mechanism, widely  studied in Diabetic research. Our endeavor in the study is to visualize  a part of the mechanism by making use of the Nobel Prize winning idea  of the Green Fluorescent Proteins (GFPs). Hopefully, the project will  provide us with auspicious outcomes to further improve the study of the  disease.<br />

Stress beyond the cell's tolerance will induce cell death. The <strong>cellular stress response</strong> (<strong>heat-shock response</strong>) protects  organisms from damage resulting from environmental stressors such as heat, UV  light, trace metals, and xenobiotics. Stress genes are activated to rapidly  synthesize <strong>stress proteins</strong>, which are  highly conserved in biological evolution and play similar roles in organisms  from bacteria to humans.

                            <p>The cellular stress is sensed  by a key protein called AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). The AMPK protein  complex is conserved among all eukaryotes, including yeast, plants and humans.  In humans this is the target of most anti-diabetic drugs in the market today  and is also implicated in many other metabolic disorders such as obesity and  atherosclerosis and also in developmental processes such as cell cycle and  ageing, etc. In yeast, this protein is called SNF1 and to  use the conformational change in the SNF1 complex to establish a FRET (Förster  Resonance Energy Transfer) system. </p>

IGEM stands for International Genetically Engineered Machines and is a competition based upon interdisciplinary collaboration of students on a Synthetic Biology project. The competition is held in MIT, Boston and is open to all universities from various countries world-wide. There are 180 teams participating this year with about 2000 students in total. We have started with a promising idea that combines the cutting edge technologies available in the field of Synthetic Biology. Our research basically includes the specification and designing of a biological system followed by the application of Molecular Biology techniques to build and test it experimentally. The premise of the competition for the students will be to learn engineering approaches and tools to organize, model, and assemble complex systems and to immerse themselves in applied molecular biology. In the project, we are investigating a biological phenomenon that is a part of insulin uptake mechanism, widely studied in Diabetic research. Our endeavor in the study is to visualize a part of the mechanism by making use of the Nobel Prize winning idea of the Green Fluorescent Proteins (GFPs). Hopefully, the project will provide us with auspicious outcomes to further improve the study of the disease.

What we are doing?
Synthetic readout of cellular stress

The cellular stress is sensed by a key protein called AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). The AMPK protein complex is conserved among all eukaryotes, including yeast, plants and humans.
