Revision as of 12:59, 3 September 2012
The LMU-Munich team is exuberantly happy about the great success at the World Championship Jamboree in Boston. Our project Beadzillus finished 4th and won the prize for the "Best Wiki" (with Slovenia) and "Best New Application Project".
[ more news ]
Our project will combine the idea of biological "beads" with the production of endospores in the gram-positive bacteria Bacillus subtilis. Our goal is to induce the production of specific proteins on the outer surface of B. subtilis endospores, and knock out spore germination-inducing genes such that the spores can be used as beads, without the ability to germinate.
B. subtilis spores are particularly suited to be used in industrial-type applications as "beads" due to their resistance to extreme heat, cold, to desiccation and disinfectants, and even to radiation.
Each B. subtilis cell produces only one endospore -- in addition to developing our altered strain, we must work to ensure a dependable supply, since we will be removing one of their means of reproduction.
