Achievements
Even though we first started the iGEM project in the end of June, we have managed to design a fully standardized cloning system called Plug'n Play with DNA. We think that iGEM should be about fast and easy assembling of BioBricks, which led us to use features from the USER fusion standard assembly to model our Plug'Play with DNA assembly system. Our system consist of:
We have characterized the two fungal promoters, PalcA and DMKP-P6, and three mammalian promoters, SV40, PGK, CMV.
The characterization of the fungal promoters was qualitative evaluated with an X-gal analysis, where the expression of ß-galactosidase results in blue colonies. Furthermore, quantitative ß-galactosidase and Bradford assay was performed to measure the protein production and ß-galactosidase activity.
To demonstrate Plug' Play with DNA also was applicable in mammalian cell lines, the transfected cells capability to express fluorescence proteins was investigated with confocal microscopy.
Both the characterization and fluorescence verified that the system worked as well in mammalian cells than fungi.
