*'''Team Student Academy:''' ''E. coli'' Mach1 with pMTE cp46 His received from the working group “Fermentation Engineering”, University Bielefeld. Plasmid contains genes for GFP and kanamycine resistance. We plated it and made a liquid culture at 30°C. Result: There was an intense fluorescence. We made a glycerol stock  and a plasmid isolation.

*'''Team Bacterial Laccases:'''

:* We made colony PCRs on the transformations from the day before. We got product for every transformation approach so we plated the positive colonies on new plates to make plasmid isolation. So hopefully in some days we have the plasmids with the ''E. coli'' laccase, the ''Xanthomonas campestris'' laccase and the ''B. pumilus'' laccase with the inducible t7 promotor and a HIS-tag.

[[File:Bielefeld2012_02_und_005_mM_ABTS.png|200px|thumb|right|Saturation curves of TVEL0 activity with 0.1 mM and 0.05 mM ABTS (n=24).]]

*'''Team Activity Tests:''' After establishing our recipe for activity measurements we were curious about different ABTS concentration and wanted to make sure we took the right one for our approach. With this in mind we did our activity measurement with 0.1 U TVEL0 laccase, 100 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 5), ad 200 µl H<sub>2</sub>O dest., but with two new ABTS concentrations, namely 0.2 mM and 0.05 mM ABTS (see Fig. 1). It turned out that using 0.05 mM ABTS leads to a low maximum of saturation but reaches it quickly. With 0.2 mM ABTS the opposite occurs: the activity curve is saturated at a OD<sub>420</sub> of ~2.7 but it needs more time to reach its maximum. Knowing this we are happy using 0.1 mM ABTS because it is saturating slowly and the maximum is not too high. 0.1 mM ABTS is therefore established!<br><br>

*'''Team Bacterial Laccases:''' After plasmid isolation we cut our plasmids with ''Not''I to see if the colony PCR was correct and our laccases are in the backbone. The agarose gel showed that for all of the different plasmids we had at least one plasmid with DNA band on the correct hight in agarose gel.

* '''Team bacterial laccase''': We sent the isolated pSB1C3 plasmids with inducible T7 promotor, the different laccase genes from ''Xanthomonas campestris'' CopA, ''B. pumilus'' CotA and ''E.coli'' CueO and HIS-Tag for sequencing.

* '''Team Activity Test''': Today we prepared for our next measurements by setting up the sodium acetate buffer in different pHs. We choose to test the activity of TVEL0 in a pH-Gradient of 1,2,5,7 and 9.

** PCRs of genomic DNA from ''B. halodurans C-125'' we ordered from DSMZ before. We handled the cells in the same way we did with ''T. thermphilus'' before and soluted the lyophlized cells in water and boiled them before PCR. After PCR we cleaned up the product. However the DNA amount was so low that we had to do the PCRs again.
