Revision as of 10:07, 7 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".

Bacillus BioBrick Box - Promoters
Eleven (J23100,J23101, J23102, J23103, J23106, J23107, J23113, J23114, J23115, J23117, J23118) of the nineteen promoters of the Anderson collection were evaluated in the reporter vector pSBBs3C-luxABCDE from the BioBrickBox containing the lux operon as a reporter for promoter activity. The gene expression which correlates to the promoter activity leads to the expression of the lux operon with the luciferase. The luminescence which is produced by the luciferase can be measured with the plate reader (BioTek).
To measure the activity not only with the lux reporter operon, four promoters were cloned into the reporter vector pSBBs1C-lacZ to do beta-galactosidase assays and then to compare the results of the strength of these promoters in B. subtilis.
The constitutive promoters PliaG and PlepA were evaluated in the reporter vector pSBBs3C-luxABCDE which contains the lux operon.
Germination Stop
We induced our germination-mutant strains to sporulate in Difco sporulation media. Then we measured the germination rate of mutant spores in a germination assay.
