| - | ETHZ Basel project goal is to control E. coli movements (chemotaxis)
| + | |
| - | by means of light. In fact, we will change the chemotaxis pathway
| + | |
| - | either by substituting the receptor with a light-sensitive one or by
| + | |
| - | interfering with the kinase-phosphatase process with proteins whose
| + | |
| - | binding and unbinding can be stimulated by pulses of light. In both
| + | |
| - | ways, E. coli tumbling is induced or removed just by pressing a light
| + | |
| - | switch and, as a consequence, a bacterium can be "driven" to a
| + | |
| - | precise, pre-fixed point. Tumbling / directed flagellar movement rates are supervised by image processing algorithms, which are linked to the light-pulse generator. This system enables to control single E.coli cells to move like mindless "Lemmings" in the direction they are forced to go.

| - | <!--- Old version
| + | |
| - | This years ETHZ Basel project goal is to control E.coli chemotaxis by hijacking and perturbing the tumbling / directed flagellar movement apparatus. By coupling directed flagellar movement regulating proteins to a light-sensitive spatial localization system, their activity can be controlled reversibly. A light-sensitive dimerizing complex fused to this regulating proteins and a spatial fixed location is induced by light pulses and therefore localization of the two molecules can be manipulated. --->
