We aim to create a novel biological chassis that exploits both fermentative and photosynthetic pathways for biohydrogen gas production. By genetically engineering hydrogenases from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Pyrococcus furiosus into Rhodobacter sphaeroides, we will direct more reducing power...

We had such a great time at the UK iGEM Meetup and the Newcastle University Designer Biology Conference, where we presented our project poster! Many great connections made and looking forward to collaborations we are planning with the other UK teams. Thanks so much for having us Newcastle University 🧬🔬
