Citadel iGEM is an undergraduate-level research group at [http://www.citadel.edu/main/ The Citadel: The Military College of South Carolina]. Our interdisciplinary team is composed of students and educators united by a common goal: to design and build biological machines using standardized genetic parts.  Their accomplishments will be presented at the [https://2010.igem.org/About International Genetically Engineered Machines] (iGEM) competition held at MIT on November 5-8.  Citadel iGEM is competing for the first time in 2010. This group is a super competitive lot, prone to pranks and oneupmanship usually culminating in minor lab and lecture hall catastrophes.

Appetuners: A System for the Expression and Control of Appetite Regulation Peptides in E.coli

     The 2010 Citadel-Charleston iGEM team invites you to join us as we explore a novel healthcare solution to obesity and weight-related ailments: influencing the desire to eat through an engineered strain of intestinal microflora.  Our team has focused research and development on Peptide Tyrosine Tyrosine (PYY), a peptide which could permit microorganisms native to the gastrointestinal tract to interact with the central nervous system and manipulate the perception of hunger.  The Citadel-Charleston Team has worked to express the PYY3-36 peptide in E.coli and to ensure that its expression is strictly controlled by means of a cellular population limit.

 

News and Updates

November 22, 2010: The Citadel iGEM Wiki has been updated. A number of edits, both technical and aesthetic, have been made to make the wiki more useful to future visitors and iGEM teams.
