* '''Team Student Academy:'''
 
-
** Final meeting with all instructors of the student academy to talk about all details.

-
* '''Team Cloning of Bacterial Laccases:'''
 
-
** After the failed attempts to isolate the laccase genes from ''Streptomyces lavendulae'' and ''Streptomyces griseus'' we assumed that maybe the sequences from this laccases and the laccase sequences we designed the primers for were to different to get a product [https://2012.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Labjournal/week2#Monday_May_7th (look here for more details)]. So we used the sequences of the laccase genes we tried to isolate from the ''Streptomycetes'' strains and blasted them against an intern database from our university. The results showed that we could use genomic DNA from ''Streptomyces sp. tuebingen'', ''S.roseochromogenes'' and ''Streptomyces sp. goettingen'', from which we can get already isolated genomic DNA. Therefore we designed primers for the isolation of the predicted laccase genes from these three strains.

* '''Team Shuttle Vector:'''
 
-
** Some fragments for Gibson Assembly with overlapping DNA sequences were amplified via Phusion-PCR. The fragment 5'AOX1 was amplified with the primer pair pSB1C3-5aox1-f and pSB1C3-5aox1-r. The fragment MF-alpha1 was amplified with the primer pair 5aox1-mfalpha1-f and 5aox1-mfalpha1-r. The fragment 3'AOX1 was amplified with the primer pair his4-3aox1-f and his4-3aox1-r. The fragment pSB1C3 was amplified with the primer pair 3aox1-pSB1C3-f and 3aox1-pSB1C3-r.

-
**We received an e-mail from the working group leader Prof. Dr. Bornscheuer (Institute of Biochemistry, Dept. of Biotechnology & Enzyme Catalysis at Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-University in Greifswald (Germany)). He send us a confirmation that the plasmids with the cDNA of four ''Trametes versicolor''-laccases and one laccase of  ''Pycnoporus cinnabarinus'' were sended to the iGEM Team Bielefeld.
