<p align="justify">'''Sporo'''beads are the first generation of ''Bacillus subtilis'' endospores displaying a protein of our choice on their outermost layer, the spore crust. In future '''Sporo'''beads could serve as a platform for protein display and thus be used for numerous versatile [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Application applications]. Our goal was to show that ''B. subtilis'' spores have the ability to do so. As a [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Spore_Coat_Proteins/result proof of principle] we successfully fused GFP to the spore crust and obtained fluorescence with microscopy.</p>
