AWARDS AND NOMINATIONS

Check out our accomplishments from the 2020 iGEM Giant Jamboree!

CELLULASES

Engineering three strains Y. lipolytica that secrete each class of cellulase enzymes, thus allowing the yeast strains to use agricultural waste as a feedstock for growth and beta-carotene production.

THYMOL PRODUCTION

Introducing the genes that will allow Y. lipolytica to produce thymol as an anti-helminthic agent for better intestinal absorption of vitamin A

BIOCONTAINMENT

Engineering mutual auxotrophy into the Y. lipolytica strains so they become dependent on each other and only survive within the bioreactor and not in the environment.
