Collaboration with Glowing Plants

Description

Collaboration with Dundee iGEM team 2013

Description

The Dundee iGEM team 2013 is also working on bioremediation: The toxin microcystein is released into the water from lysed cyanobacteria and appears in great amounts during algal blooms. This cyclic peptide toxin covalently binds the protein phosphatase type 1 (PP1) and is thereby toxic for mammals. The idea of the Dundee iGEM team is to express the PP1 protein as an absorber for microcystin. We received their PP1 BioBrick, converted it from RFC 10 to RFC 25 and constructed some expression plasmids to transform Physcomitrella patens in order to apply Dundee's molecular mop in an aquatic, photoautotrophic chassis and thus expand their project´s applicability.






Collaboration with Paris-Saclay iGEM team 2013

Description

The Paris_Saclay iGEM team is working on the detection and degradation of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polychlorinated_biphenyl polychlorinated biphenyl] (PCB) in the context of bioremediation. We arranged a skype-meeting, presented our projects to each other and agreed to exchange some of our coding BioBricks completed for this year´s competition in order the test them in different chassises.



Exchange of urgently needed BioBricks

LMU Munich iGEM team 2012

We received the fluorescent proteins GFP, mKate2 and mVenus in RFC 25 from the 2012 Team of LMU Munich.

Tuebingen iGEM team 2013

We sent our pTUM100 vector system ([http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K801000 BBa_K801000]) from the 2012 competition to the iGEM Team of Tuebingen.

Uppsala iGEM team 2013

We provided the iGEM Team Uppsala with CHS consless ([http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K801095 BBa_K801095]), 4CL consless ([http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K801093 BBa_K801093]) and PAL consless ([http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K801091 BBa_K801091]) from the 2012 competition.
