The team came together during a course in mammalian cell biology in June, and that's when the idea of iGEM popped into our heads. Eventhough we started the iGEM project in late June, we have managed to design a fully standardized cloning system called Plug'n Play with DNA. We thought that time should be spent on making cool iGEM systems, instead of struggeling with unwanted restriction sites and limited assembly systems. This led us to the USER fusion standard assembly as a model our Plug'Play with DNA assembly system.
Our Plug 'n' Play with DNA kit consist of:
49 ready-to-use BioBricks.
21 backup plasmids.
A quick 'n' easy guide on how to customize new BioBricks or introducing specific mutations
To ensure that the BioBricks and devices have been assembled correctly we have tested the functionality of them in Aspergillus nidulans and in mammalian cells.
We have characterized the two fungal promoters, PalcA and DMKP-P6, and proved the function of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter for mammalian cells.
The characterization of the fungal promoters was successfully performed with an X-gal analysis, where the expression of ß-galactosidase results in blue colonies. Furthermore, quantitative ß-galactosidase and Bradford assays were performed in order to measure protein production and ß-galactosidase activity. Both promoters proved to be of medium strength.
For demonstration of the Plug' Play with DNA system in mammalian cell lines, U-2 OS was transfected with plasmids containing genes for fluorescence molecules. The transfected cells capability to express the fluorescence molecules was investigated with confocal microscopy, which resulted in amazing pictures of glowing peroxisomes and colored U-2 SO cells.
Some of the submitted BioBricks have been successfully sequenced, and the data have been examinated in order to verify that no mutations or incorrect insertions had occurred. The analysis of the sequencing data showed that the Plug 'n' Play parts had been correctly assembled. The sequencing and the characterization both show that the system works as expected in A. nidulans and in the mammalian cell line U-2 OS without unwanted insertion and mutations.
