PARTS OVERVIEW


Oviita has three main wet lab components that allow Yarrowia lipolytica to be easy and safe to work with in communities, and be as nutritionally valuable as possible. This year we did extensive planning of experiments, including trouble-shooting plans. Check out our work below!

PART COLLECTION

Integrating cellulase genes into the Y. lipolytica genome, thus allowing the yeast to use agricultural waste as a carbon source for energy.

VALIDATE

Introducing the genes that will allow Y. lipolytica to produce omega 3-fatty acids to be more nutritionally valuable

CHARACTERIZE

Engineering the different strains to be dependent on each other so they can only survive within the bioreactor and not in the environment
