Gulu la Tsinghua-TFL, motsogozedwa ndi Pulofesa Pan Junmin, lili ndi ophunzira 10 a digiri yoyamba ndi ophunzira atatu a digiri ya udokotala ochokera ku Sukulu ya Sayansi ya Moyo, Yunivesite ya Tsinghua. Cholinga cha gululi ndi kugwiritsa ntchito kusintha kwa biology yopangidwa ndi chassis ya zomera zamtundu wa photosynthesis -tizilombo tating'onoting'ono, ndi cholinga chomanga fakitale yogwira ntchito bwino kwambiri yokonza mpweya wa carbon ndi starch (StarChlamy) kuti ipereke chakudya chatsopano, kuchepetsa kudalira nthaka yolima.

Kuphatikiza apo, gululo, lothandizidwa ndi kampani ya Tsinghua Life Sciences,Protoga Mbiri ya Moyotech Co., Ltd., ikugwiritsa ntchito njira zosiyanasiyana zothandizira zomwe zimaperekedwa ndiProtoga Biotech kuphatikizapo malo ochitira kafukufuku, malo opangira zinthu, ndi zinthu zotsatsa malonda.

Pakadali pano, dziko lapansi likukumana ndi vuto lalikulu la nthaka, pomwe njira zachikhalidwe zaulimi zikudalira kwambiri nthaka kuti ipeze chakudya, zomwe zikuwonjezera vuto la njala chifukwa cha kusowa kwa malo olimapo.

Pofuna kuthana ndi vutoli, gulu la Tsinghua-TFL lapereka njira yawo yothetsera vutoli - kumangatizilombo tating'onoting'ono fakitale yokonza mpweya wa photobioreactor ngati gwero latsopano la chakudya kuti achepetse kudalira nthaka yolimapo kuti apeze chakudya.

TGulu lake layang'ana njira zogwiritsira ntchito starch, chomwe ndi chakudya chofunikira kwambiri mu mbewu za chakudya, kuti lipange starch bwino kuchokera kutizilombo tating'onoting'ono ndikuwongolera ubwino wake mwa kuwonjezera kuchuluka kwa amylose.

Pa nthawi yomweyo, kudzera mu biology yopangidwa ndi zinthu zosiyanasiyana kusintha kwa kuwala ndi kayendedwe ka Calvin mu njira ya photosynthesis yatizilombo tating'onoting'ono, zawonjezera mphamvu ya photosynthesis carbon fixation, motero zapanga njira yothandiza kwambiri StarChlamy.

Atatenga nawo gawo pa mpikisano wa 20 wa International Genetically Engineered Machine Competition (iGEM) ku Paris kuyambira pa 2 mpaka 5 Novembala 2023, gulu la Tsinghua-TFL linalandira Mphotho ya Golide, kusankhidwa kwa "Best Plant Synthetic Biology", ndi kusankhidwa kwa "Best Sustainable Development Impact", zomwe zinakopa chidwi cha polojekiti yake yatsopano komanso luso lake lofufuza bwino.

Mpikisano wa iGEM wakhala ngati nsanja kwa ophunzira kuti awonetse zomwe akwanitsa kuchita m'munda wa sayansi ya moyo ndi ukadaulo, kutsogolera patsogolo pa uinjiniya wa majini ndi sayansi yopangira zinthu. Kuphatikiza apo, umaphatikizapo mgwirizano pakati pa maphunziro osiyanasiyana ndi magawo monga masamu, sayansi ya makompyuta, ndi ziwerengero, zomwe zimapereka gawo labwino kwambiri losinthirana kwa ophunzira ambiri.

Kuyambira mu 2007, Sukulu ya Sayansi ya Moyo ku Tsinghua University yalimbikitsa ophunzira a digiri yoyamba kupanga magulu a iGEM. M'zaka makumi awiri zapitazi, ophunzira opitilira mazana awiri atenga nawo mbali pa mpikisanowu, zomwe zapeza ulemu wambiri. Chaka chino, Sukulu ya Sayansi ya Moyo yatumiza magulu awiri, Tsinghua ndi Tsinghua-TFL, kuti akalembetsedwe, kupangidwa kwa magulu, kukhazikitsidwa kwa mapulojekiti, kuyesa, ndi kumanga wiki. Pamapeto pake, mamembala 24 omwe adatenga nawo mbali adagwira ntchito limodzi kuti apereke zotsatira zabwino panthawi yonseyi yasayansi ndi ukadaulo.
