Our New Basic Parts


We developed 4 new basic parts to contribute to the 2024 iGEM registry this year. Each of them was codon optimized for E. coli.

The goal of these parts is to encourage other teams to potentially try other approaches in inhibiting destructin-(1-3) to be used to counter white nose syndrome.
