MCCAP

Construction of the minimal cell is a great project in synthetic biology. MCCAP(Minimal Cell Construct and Analysis Panel) is an engineering drawing to construct the smallest cell. You can select the appropriate species in the MCCAP to generate the corresponding minimal set of genes and other relevant data.

Environment

Operating environment

  • Windows XP of higher
  • Linux 64 bit

Development environment

  • Windows
  • Qt 5.5.0
  • MinGW_32

Installation

Windows

Download MCCAP.zip and decompression it, just run the exe file.

Linux

Download MCCAP.tar.gz.

tar -zxvf MCCAP.tar.gz
./MCCAP.sh

Features

Reference species select

This is the first part of MCCAP, and all the work of constructing a minimal cell start from here. User can choose appropriate reference species according to their own needs. You can choose species(at least 4) which you wanted by pull them to right side or double clicking them.

Minimal gene set display

The minimal set is divided into four part, you can download it in csv format. MCCAP will alse produce the result of pathway and module at the same time.

Gene network display

Click pathway or module bubble then you can see the details of gene network. All genes that are involved in minimal gene set are marked with red.

Compare results

Every time you select the cell, you can save the selected results. Checked two sets of records in historical records and clicked on the Compare Button, and the comparison results are obtained.

Analysis of assembly

For researchers aiming to bring their design into reality, MCCAP provides informations related to assembly and standard parts. So that users can decide which certain gene to use and how to process this gene into a standard part.

A funny IOS game to propagate iGEM ideas.
