SORTING OF TRANSFECTED BACTERIA EXPRESSING GREEN FLUORESCENT PROTEIN

这个项目的目标是识别出 选择性结合三氯乙烯（TCE）并代谢TCE。 的 通过转染技术， 绿色荧光蛋白基因的表达作为 TCE与细菌受体的结合。 GFP表达细胞是 分选、再生，并进一步表征TCE受体。

The goal of this project is to identify mutated bacteria that selectively bind trichloroethylene (TCE) and metabolize the TCE. The approach being taken is, through transfection techniques, to use expression of green fluorescent protein gene as an indicator of binding of TCE to bacterial receptors. The GFP expressing cells are sorted, regrown, and the TCE receptor further characterized.
