As proof of concept we in very short time created a reporter system that can be used for anything from monitoring gene expression to determination of protein localization. We chose to express and/or localize fluorescent proteins in the model organism <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:DTU-Denmark-2/results/Proofofconcept/fungi" ><i>Aspergillus nidulans</i></a> and the <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:DTU-Denmark-2/results/Proofofconcept/mammalian"> mammalian cell line U-2 OS </a> with success.

Standardization entails rigidity. We acknowledge this and have therefore written a <a href="https://2011.igem.org/Team:DTU-Denmark-2/Project/PlugnplayAssembly/customization" >guide</a> that allows the user to customize the system. In this way proteins can be assembled seamless, multiple mutations can be introduced in one round of cloning etc., the only thing setting a limit is your creativity.

Making Molecular Biology Easier


We have designed a novel standardized assembly system, called “Plug 'n' Play with DNA” where ready to use biological parts can be gathered without the use of restriction enzymes and ligase. This will make cloning faster and assembly of expression vectors possible within a few hours. We have created a library of standardized biological parts for mammalian cells and Aspergilli ready to plug 'n' play. You can find more information about how this standard works here.


A Reporter System


As proof of concept we have created a reporter system that can be used for anything from monitoring gene expression to determination of protein localization. We expressed and localized fluorescent proteins in the model organism Aspergillus nidulans and the mammalian cell line U-2 OS with great success.

Flexibility


Standardization entails rigidity. Therefore we have written a guide that allows the researcher to customize the system, so proteins can be assembled seamless, multiple mutations can be introduced in one round of cloning etc. The only limitation to this is your creativity.

Applications


Here you can learn more about the numerous applications of the Plug’n’Play with DNA assembly standard and the research areas, where this system is especially advantageous.



Data Page


You can find an overview of our project on our Data Page. Here you also find our favorite submitted biobricks, and the biobricks we characterized during the summer.

Achievements


Designing a novel assembly standard and creating a reporter system for Aspergillus nidulans and mammalian cells are our main achievements. You can read more about our accomplishments on this page.

The Team


We are five girls that have been working on this project for three months with support from our three supervisors. You can learn more about us, and how we started an iGEM team on our Team Page.
