This is a template page. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

You are provided with this team page template with which to start the iGEM season. You may choose to personalize it to fit your team but keep the same "look." Or you may choose to take your team wiki to a different level and design your own wiki. You can find some examples HERE.

You MUST have a team description page, a project abstract, a complete project description, a lab notebook, and a safety page. PLEASE keep all of your pages within your teams namespace.

Project Description

Taking the idea of Arthur C. Clarke`s Novel 2001, Odissey of the space, it would be possible to find at least one solution of preserving living tissues from freeze damage. This solution could be taken from nature examples on which many species have envolved to avoid freezing damages,also this could be applied to other known problems in human activities, such like crops, preserving cells, even oven tissues.

We are far from freeze living people but we want to acclimate organisms to cold environments and we propose to follow the next steps:

Characterization of living systems at low temperatures.
Design a Crio-chassis to keep bacteria at freezing temperatures.
Design an Antifreeze protein that we could use on our system.
Build a synthetic regulatory network that responses to low temperatures.
Create a complete kit of parts for low temperatures and freeze.

Our project is quite versatile, we think we can use it to solve a lot of issues on technological, scientific, medical and agronomy,
