Week 2 (05/07 - 05/13/12)
- Primerdesign for isolation of laccases from genomic DNA of Xanthomonas campestris B100, E. coli BL21(DE3) and Bacillus pumilus ATCC7061. The forward primers were designed with T7 promotor-overhanging ends after prefix and the first 20 bases of the wanted gene. The reverse primers were designed with a HIS-Tag and tweo stop codons before suffix and the last 20 bases of the wanted gene without the stop codon.
- Successful PCRs of laccase genes CopA from Xanthomonas campestris B100, CueO from E. coli BL21(DE3) with the isolated genomic DNA as template.
- Because we want to characterise laccases from different bacteria we had to order the bacterial strains, which weren't available at the University Bielefeld, from [http://www.dsmz.de/|DSMZ].

- After some empty agarose gels we finally isolated laccase gene CotA from Bacillus pumilus ATCC7061 as a PCR product. As template we used the plasmid we got from the Swiss working group.
- Team Modeling: Looking for suitable Software and enzymkinetics to model the degradation of our substartes with the different laccases. Finding the Michaelis-Menten kinetics and matlab.
Monday May 7th
- Team Student Academy: First transformation of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J04450 BBa_J04450] and [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_I13522 BBa_I13522] and plating on selective agar
- Electroporation setup: U= 2,5 kV C= 25 µF and R= 400 Ω
Material | Volume |
---|---|
E. coli KRX competent cells | 50 µL |
glycerol (10 %) | 50 µL |
plasmid | 1 µL |
- We did not get green fluorescing colonies and only some pale red fluorescing proteins.
Tuesday May 8th
- Team Student Academy: Repetition of the transformation didn’t change the result.
