Creating the Sensor

set wrap|We have two primary goals for this year’s competition. First, we plan to produce 
an iron sensitive reporter which indicates elevated levels of iron. This will be done be

done by combining an iron sensitive promoter with a constitutive RFP reporter. In addition 

to achieving this first reporter, we are using the parts submitted by the Cambridge team
last year and use them in place of the RFP gene. Our second, and more important, goal is

to create techniques and procedures for the common high school laboratory that can replicate 

the results from the more advanced research laboratories of universities.
