The Penn State Team will be researching and experimenting two different ideas. The first area of study will be creating an oxygen sensing promoter. This will be done through researching FNR and arcA systems in E. coli; engineering applications will be applied to these processes. The second topic we are working on is Bacterial Fireworks, an incorporation of quorum sensing, pigments, and cell lysis. Our goal is to assemble the necessary parts to display the spreading of color as the cells lyse.
