| - | * '''Team Cloning of Bacterial Laccases:'''
| |
| - | ** We sent different plasmids for sequencing.
| |
| - | ** We got another ''E.coli'' strain (Rosetta-gami 2) from our supervisor Dr. Christian Rückert. The cells carry a chloramphenicol-resistant plasmid, pRARE2, which supplies tRNAs for seven rare codons, AUA, AGG, AGA, CUA, CCC, GGA and CGG under the control of their native promoter. We want to use this strain for the expression of TTHL and BHAL hopeful that some rare codons are the reason that the laccases can’t be expressed by now. So we need the genes under control of a constitutive promoter because this strain has no T7 polymerase and we can’t use our inducible constructs. Further the plasmids need to have AMP resistance, because otherwise we can't select on positive transformed cells. Hopefully the plasmids, we sent for sequencing are ok, so we can use them.

The flow-through fluoresced very strong, so that not that much of the protein had bound to the column. Conclusion: The column had to be reloaded.

| - | * '''Team Activity Tests:'''
| |
| - | **Today our hard-working Team Cultivation offered us some [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccases. After fermentation and TALON purification the laccase was still hanging around in imidazole buffer, so we rebuffered it into nanopure water. We incubated the sample with copper and considered to measure the protein concentration before running the activity tests. Using the protocol for determining the protein concentration via Bradford (standards were 1 mg/ml, 1.5 mg/ml and 2 mg/ml BSA) we got a final [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccase concentration of 0.22 mg/ml. With this information we designed the following activity test different as usual. As a positive control we took 140 µl of our bought laccase TVEL0 with a concentration of 0,021 mg/ml. Accordingly to this concentration we applied 14 µl of the [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccase to get approximately the same amount of laccase into each well. Additionally we tested 140 µl of the [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccase to make sure that we will definitely see any activity. After measuring the samples the whole night we got our results in the morning. It turned out, that our store bought laccase TVEL0 was rapidly active as seen before in our activity tests. The [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccase was also active. Using 140 µl of it led to the maximal state of oxidation of ABTS after 45 minutes. With the reduced amount of 14 µl of laccase this optimum was reached after 90 minutes. For our following activity tests we want to include the protein concentration again.

| - | * We signed in for our tracks today! Our first choice is the 'Environment' track since it is obvious that we want to clean up drinking water and therefore help our environment. The second choice is the 'New Application' track. We are hoping our filter system can be applied in wastewater treatment plants and establishes a new area of water purification.

The Estradiol concentration should be 2 µg ml <sup>-1</sup>. We stopped at houre 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and over night, and mesured the Estradiol concentration with the HPLC and the LCMS.

| |
| - | *'''Team Activity Tests:'''
| |
| - | **Today we had to deliver some data for Team Modeling. To calculate enzyme kinetics of our laccases the initial reaction speed has to be determined. With our usual approach using 0.1 U TVEL0 Laccase we couldn't accurately measure the first minute of reaction with ABTS because everything went to fast. So we cut down the volume of TVEL0 laccase from 140 µL to 35 µL (0.025 U) and measured the oxidizing potential of TVEL0 with different ABTS concentrations. The results are shown in Fig. 1. There you go, Team Modeling! Make the best out of it!

The samples were evaporated for six hours and diluted in 50 % - 50 % acetonitril - water. Then we used the C18E-columns for purifying the samples. The measuring with LC-MS was done from Marcus Persicke.

Therefore it was reloaded newly before starting the purifications. The purified samples were BPUL produced on 09/03 and 09/05 as well as ECOL produced on 09/04. The results were not that promising, so maybe we harvested the cells too early. They start dying more or less when we expect them to produce our (toxic) protein. So we think we had to let some of them die, so that the rest will produce our protein. The next fermentations should endure at least 12 hours.

We got fraction 3 to 7 and 15 to 19 of the purification, because they have shown a nice peak. After bringing the [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccases into water, we incubated with 0.5 mM CuCl<sub>2</sub> and measured the protein concentration via Bradford. The offered fractions contained the following protein concentrations after rebuffering: 0.0087 mg/mL (fr. 3), 0.0110 fr. 4), 0.0632 (fr. 5), 0.1672 (fr. 6), 0.1229 (fr. 7), 0.0060 (fr. 15), 0.0034 (fr. 16), 0.0326 (fr. 18), 0.0225 (fr. 19). The protein amount in fraction 17 couldn't be measured but we didn't leave it behind. We adjusted the protein concentrations to the concentration of TVEL0, but did also measurements using 140 µL of each sample, because the protein concentrations do not only represent gained laccases. The results of our plain activity measurement of the samples are demonstrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 (positive and negative control shown in Fig. 3):

| - | Fractions 6 and 7 show the highest activity leading to the assumption, that faction 7 contains as much protein as fraction 6 and that this amount is almost represented through [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccase. Additionally we were interested in the impact on copper incubation. We have chosen fr. 18 and compared the activity of a copper incubated and a not copper incubated sample. With a incubation time of 2 hours with 0.5 mM CuCl<sub>2</sub> we can double the activity of the [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] laccase (see Fig. 4). Another interesting topic was the impact of imidazole buffer on the [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] activity. For that we tested fr. 7 and fr. 18 in imidazole buffer and rebuffered in H<sub>2</sub>O. The results we got were unambiguously: [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php/Part:BBa_K863000/ BPUL] in imidazole buffer didn't show much activity. Unfortunately we can't omit the rebuffering.

| - | * '''Team Cultivation & Purification:'''
| |
| - | ** Fermentation of ''E. coli'' KRX containing [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K863005 BBa_K863005] (fermenter: Infors) or containing [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K863000 BBa_K863000] (fermenter: Braun) to get a growth kinetics.
| |
| - | *** Settings: autoinduction medium, 60 µg/mL chloramphenicol, final volume: 3 L, 37 °C, stirrer on cascade to hold a pO<sub>2</sub> of 50 %, airflow: 2 NL/m, 12 hours.
| |
| - | ** Harvesting and centrifugation of today's 3 L fermentations.
| |
| - | ** Fermentation of ''E. coli'' KRX containing [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K863000 BBa_K863000]
| |
| - | *** Settings: fermenter: Bioengineering NFL22 (7 L), autoinduction medium, final volume: 6 L, 37 °C, pH 7 stirrer increased 2 % if the pO<sub>2</sub> got below 30 %, airflow: 5 NL/m, 12 hours.
| |
| - | ** Flask cultivation of ''E. coli'' Rosetta-Gami 2 cells containing [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K863012 BBa_K863012] and <partinfo>BBa_K863022</partinfo>.
| |
| - | *** Settings: flask without baffles, LB medium, 200 mL, 60 µg/mL chloramphenicol and 300 µg/mL ampicillin, 37 °C, 120 rpm. We cultivated for 48 hours and stored the culture then overnight at 4 °C.
