We at SUNY Oneonta were inspired to develop our project, CyanoSpectre, by a desire to help facilitate the engineering of Cyanobacteria to provide green alternatives for useful products. Our
Inspiration page describes how we developed the concept of a Cyanophage toolkit for synthetic biology. The development of this idea can be found on our
Project Design and
Phagemid Construction pages. The schematic diagram below provides a visual overview of the synthetic biology component of CyanoSpectre.
