Welcome to iGEM Aachen 2016

Lab Book

To express a photocaged protease in our case subtilisin E, we developed three lab strategies. Their milestones can be seen below in three different timelines, one for every sub-division. Details about reaching these milestones will become visible, if you click on them. On the page “Project Idea” the theory beneath our lab work is described and on the subpage “Protocols & Methods” under “Lab” the exact protocols can be seen, if you would like to repeat the experiments.



Research on screening system. Decision to work with kit from iGEM Team Austin, Texas 2014


Definition of incubation conditions


Arrival and Preparation of Testkit with DNA from Texas
Recovery of plasmids in TRIS buffer pH 8.5, followed by transformation in BL21 DE3 gold, LB solid plates with Gentamycin 30µg/ml.
Determining concentration of antiobiotcs in LB
The growth of E.coli cells transformed with plasmids wild type tyrosine -tRNA/synthetase and oNBY-tRNA/synthetase on LB solid as well as in LB liquid is not affected by concentrations of gentamycin up to 30µg/ml, whereas a wild type BL21 DE3 gold is affected already at 5µg/ml. Hence, appropriate concentration for gentamycin plates and cultures is 30µg/ml. This observation is also valid for 50µg/ml Kanamycin tested with transformed reporter plasmids in BL21 DE3 gold.
Furthermore the combination of the two antibiotics is evaluated. Since BL21 DE3 gold showed a proper growth rate in LB with 30µg/ml gentamycin + 50µg/ml Kanamycin when transformed with a reporter plasmid and a synthetase plasmid the assessed concentrations are kept.
