* '''Team Student Academy:''' We got the chance to organize one part of the first school academy “synthetic biology/ biotechnology” at the CeBiTec of University Bielefeld by arranging experiments for the pupils and by presenting us and the iGEM competition. For the experimental part our general idea was to give them an understanding of principle methods in biotechnology / synthetic biology by using fluorescent proteins. We planned the following experiments:

** Plasmid isolation of RFP/GFP from a liquid culture.
+
                    </div>
-
** Transformation of a plasmid mixture consisting of two different fluorescent proteins (e.g. RFP and GFP) and different antibiotic resistances into ''E.coli'' KRX. It will be plated out on LB agar plates without antibiotics and on plates containing one of the two antibiotics, which are present on the plasmids. This way we can demonstrate the effect of antibiotics as selective pressure.

* '''Team Bacterial Laccases:''' Before our lab time started we send requests for different plasmids to working groups, which have already worked with laccases we are interested in. Sadly just one working group responded to us. We got answer for a vector with the laccase-ORF [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/194015788 CotA] from ''Bacillus pumilus ATCC7061'' from the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, Laboratory for Biomaterials in Switzerland. They promised to send us the plasmid.

:In a paper we found the research group worked with a laccase [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/21230052 CopA] from ''Xanthomonas pv. campestris ATCC33913''. Luckily the sequence of this laccase is the same in ''Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris B100'' which we got from a working group at our university. The same thing with a laccase from ''E. coli''. We found papers which described the laccase [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/85674340 CueO] from ''E. coli W3110''. After blasting this laccase we found out that ''E. coli BL21(DE3)'' has this laccase, too. We decided to isolate the laccase from ''E. coli BL21(DE3)''.

The forward primers were designed with T7 promotor, RBS  and the first 20 bases of the wanted gene after prefix. The reverse primers were designed with the last 20 bases of the wanted gene without the stop codon, a HIS-Tag, two stop codons and suffix sequence.

** After the vector with the laccase gene CotA from ''Bacillus pumilus'' arrived, we transformed it into the competent ''E.coli KRX'' which we have already made competent to have a greater amount of vector. The protocol we used was as followed:

*** The electroporation setup: U= 2,5kV C= 25 µF and R= 400 <math>\omega</math>
+
                </li>
-
*** Since we did not know the efficient of our competent KRX we used two different ''E.coli'' volumes for the transformation, 50µL and 100µL. We gave 50µL 10% Glycerol to the reaction tubes with 1µL of the vector DNA (''Bacillus pumilus''). After the transformation we plated them into ampicillin plates.

** PCR with the ''Xanthomonas campestris B100'' and ''E. coli BL21(DE3)'' genomic DNA to isolate the laccases. Therefore we used the primers Xcc_LAC_FW_T7, Xcc_LAC_RV_HIS, E.coli_LAC_FW_T7 and E.coli_LAC_RV_HIS which are listed under Materials.

'''Team Bacterial Laccases''': We did Colony PCR on the transformed the ''Bacillus pumilus'' CotA plasmid. Unfortunately the control with colony PCR didn't work. So we just picked some colonies for plasmid isolation in the hope that on the AMP plate were no false positives colonies.

Before one is able to work with a cell-free system based on biological material, the needed proteins have to be produced and purified first. These methods and the ones we used to characterize BioBricks in vivo are presented in this section. Used methods: Cultivations in shaking flasks and bioreactor; protein clean-up from medium, periplasm, whole cell and inclusion bodies; UF / DF; IEX; Ni-NTA columns and chromatography; recrystallization and immobilization of S-layer proteins. <a href="https://2012.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Protocols/Production">read more</a>

DNA and proteins are very small and cannot be seen by the naked eye. To control the success and the results of your upstream and downstream processes, analytical methods are necessary that give reliable results to make DNA or proteins in any way visible for you. The analytical methods we used in our project can be found in this section. Used methods: Fluorescence measurement; SDS-PAGE; MALDI-TOF; HPLC; LC-ESI-qTOF-MS/MS; molecular beacons; extraction. <a href="https://2012.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Protocols/Analytics">read more</a>
