The modification of proteins can often be a daunting ordeal. For each single amino acid change there are 23 different possibilities to be considered. iGEM Calgary has generated a toolbox to allow iGEM teams to generate their own genetic algorithms make informed decisions on the modification of their proteins. iGAM, the international genetic algorithm machine was developed to assist iGEM teams in squeezing every ounce of utility out of their proteins. | The modification of proteins can often be a daunting ordeal.

Inspiration
What needs to be addressed?
The modification of proteins can often be a daunting ordeal. For each single amino acid change there are 23 different possibilities to be considered. iGEM Calgary has generated a toolbox to allow iGEM teams to generate their own genetic algorithms make informed decisions on the modification of their proteins. iGAM, the international genetic algorithm machine was developed to assist iGEM teams in squeezing every ounce of utility out of their proteins.
The iGAM toolbox is an R package with a functions, examples and pseudocode to help teams create custom genetic algorithms to meet their specific needs. These tools and examples include those used within the generation of ModGIX an engineered chlorophyll binding protein.
iGAM Functionality
Whats in the toolbox?
Within the iGAM package there is a pseudocode document detailing the basics of generating a genetic algorithm
Access
