- | * '''Team ''A. thaliana'' laccase:''' Today we finally had a less stressful day, so that we had the time to fulfill our ''A. thaliana'' laccase mission. Since the RNA isolation was not as easy as expected and the PCRs weren´t successful so far, we washed our cDNA and gave this project a last try. Today´s PCR was with actin to check the quality of our cDNA (remember last time there weren´t even any actin bands).

- | ** Cells of the yesterday's flask cultivation and a sample of equal size of ''E.coli'' fermentation were disrupted via sonication and laccase was purified by using the HisTrap column. The purificated sample of the fermentation did not show any activity, so we decided not to purify the whole sample.

- | * '''Team Activity Tests:''' This week we had Team Modeling over and they told us about their concerns. To continue modeling they wanted to have a look at the activity of our laccase from ''T. versicolor'' but with different ABTS concentrations. Especially the were interested in the first time points after adding ABTS. This should give them enough information to calculate the enzyme activity. We didn't want to wait, so we started immediately with our standard activity test. Our tested ABTS concentrations were: 0.5µl, 1µl, 2µl, 4µl and 8µl. We got nice activity curves but also noticed, that the activity saturated quickly and therefore the initial activity of our laccase can not be measured accurately. Of course Team Modeling got our data just in time, but we also want to start new activity tests with half of the amount of laccase. So we are still trying to keep our lovely Team Modeling satisfied.
