<p align="justify">A major goal of our iGEM project is to [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Bacillus_Introduction introduce ''B. subtilis''] as a new chassis for BioBrick-based synthetic biology. For that purpose, we created a toolbox of <i>Bacillus</i> BioBricks to contribute to the registry to make it accessible to many more future iGEM-teams and the entire public microbiology domain! This ''<b>Bacillus'' B</b>io<b>B</b>rick <b>B</b>ox ('''B<sup>4</sup>''') contains the following ''Bacillus'' specific parts:</p>

==Bacillus Vectors==
 
-
Here is a list of all the vectors we cloned and used. Please note that pMAD is not in a BioBrick standard, but it is a useful tool to knock out genes inBacillus subtilis.
 
-
For the use of our vectors, please see our [[Team:LMU-Munich/Lab_Notebook/Protocols|Protocols]] page. A general introduction to Bacillus subtilis and its integrative vectors can be found [[Team:LMU-Munich/Bacillus Introduction|here]]. All vectors have ampicillin as <i>E. coli</i> resistance and RFP as selection marker.

The concentrations of the antibiotics and the insertion tests can be found in our protocol section.
 
-
The promoters we submit:
 
-
Pveg, PliaI, PliaG, plepA, Pxyl, Pxyl+XylR
 
-
We also tested the Anderson promoter collection in <i> Bacillus subtilis </i> with pSB<sub>Bs</sub>3C-<i>luxABCDE</i>. The data will be online in our data section soon.
 
-
Furthermore we plan to submit reporter genes optimized for <i> Bacillus subtilis </i>, namely GFP, lacZ, luc and mKate.
 
-
Useful for the registry are also 5 tages in Freiburg Standard (cMyc, 10His, Flag, Strep, HA).

More details to come soon.

==Bacillus Promoters==
+
<p align="justify">Since ''Bacillus subtilis'' is not an organism commonly used in iGEM, please check out our [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Bacillus_Introduction Introduction] to learn more about it.</p>
-
Another goal is to produce promoters of ''Bacillus subtilis'' in BioBrick mode and to evaluate them. These well-defined promoters will then be part of the ''Bacillus'' BioBrickBox which we will send to the registry but they can also be useful in our project '''Bead'''zillus to express our fusion crust proteins on the outside of our spores. Therefore we will use different promoters which are the constitutive promoters from the Anderson collection from the partsregistry, the constitutive promoters P<sub>''liaG''</sub>, P<sub>''veg''</sub> and P<sub>''lepA''</sub> from ''B. subtilis'' as well as the inducible promoter P<sub>''liaI''</sub> from ''B. subtilis''. For the characterization of the different promoters we will clone them upstream of reporter genes (lux operon, lacZ) to measure their activity in ''B. subtilis''. Therefore we use e.g. the two reporter vectors from ''B. subtilis'' which are also part of the ''Bacillus'' BioBrickBox. One of the reporter vectors pSB<sub>Bs</sub>3C-<i>luxABCDE</i> contains the ''lux'' operon as a reporter. This is why the activity of the promoter can be measured as luminescence with the plate reader (BioTek) which is a result of the expression of the luciferase. The second reporter vector used for the evaluation of the promoters is pSB<sub>Bs</sub>1C-''lacZ'' which contains the reporter gene ''lacZ''. The promoter activity leads to the production of the enzyme beta-galactosidase which cleaves the substrate ONPG. The product is detectable with the photometer and refers to the promoter activity.

iGEM Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München Beadzillus

Team-LMU culture tubes.resized.jpg

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".
