<p align="justify">To get a set of promoters with different strength we characterized several promoters in ''Bacillus subtilis''. They can be divided in three different groups: the constitutive promoters from the [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J23100 Anderson collection] from the Partsregistry, the constitutive promoters P<sub>''liaG''</sub>, P<sub>''veg''</sub> and P<sub>''lepA''</sub> from ''B. subtilis'', and the inducible promoters P<sub>''liaI''</sub> and P<sub>''xyl''</sub>-''XylR'' from ''B. subtilis''. For the characterization of the different promoters we used the ''lux'' operon [[File:Lux operon.png|100px]] where gene expression leads to the production of luminescence. For this promoter evaluation the reporter vector pSB<sub>''Bs''</sub>3C-''luxABCDE'' was used which was not fully in BioBrickStandard in this time because of one last forbidden restriction site. We also used the reporter gene ''lacZ'' [[File:LacZ.png|100px]] for the promoter evaluation where the promoter activity can be measured by doing β-galactosidase assays. Therefore we used the reporter vector pSB<sub>''Bs''</sub>1C-''lacZ''. See this page for an overview and background information of all evaluated promoters and see the [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Data Data] page for more details.</p>

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".
