Collaboration with Dundee iGEM team 2013

The iGEM team Dundee 2013 also decided to work on bioremediation. They identified the toxin microcystein, which becomes typically released into water after algal blooms caused by cyanobacteria. This cyclic peptide toxin binds covalently the protein phosphatases type 1 (PP1) and is therefore toxic for mammals. The idea of the Dundee iGEM team is to express the PP1 protein as a absorber for microcystin in the environment. We received their PP1 BioBrick, will convert it from RFC 10 to RFC 25, construct some expression plasmids and transform Physcomitrella patens in order to have the Dundee's molecular mop in a aquatic, photoautotrophic chassis in order to expand the applicability of their project.

Description



Collaboration with Paris-Saclay iGEM team 2013

The iGEM team Paris_Saclay 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 in which we presented our projects to each other and agreed afterward that we exchange some coding BioBricks which we are constructing during this summer in order the test the BioBrick of the other team in an other Chassis.



Exchange of urgently needed BioBricks

LMU Munich iGEM team 2012

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

Tuebingen iGEM team 2013

We have sent our pTUM100 vector system from 2012 to the iGEM Team of Tuebingen.

Uppsala iGEM team 2013

We have provided the iGEM Team Uppsala with the BioBricks for the enzymes x, y and z.

British Columbia iGEM team 2013


Paris Saclay iGEM team 2013
