Protocols
Number | Name | Description |
000 | Template | Template for all the protocols made by SDU iGEM 2015. |
001 | Linker GFP | Assembly of a biobrick that contains the Linker-GFP gene. |
002 | Control of Leucine Zipper | To conjugate a leucin zipper to the T18 and T25 domain as used in the bacterial two-hybrid system and to furthermore verify that the bacterial two-hybrid system works |
003 | Interlab Study | Measurement of GFP under influence of different promoters. |
004 | cAMP Indicator | To create a brick that can indicate the activation of CyaA in the two hybrid system, by colour expression when increased presence of cAMP. |
005 | CyaA Knockout | To create a knockout of the CyaA gene in MG1655. This is done to get a bacterial strain which we can use to use and test the Two-Hybrid System. |
006 | Characterization of PcstA | To better characterize the cAMPinducable promotor PcstA. Three experiments are designed and executed in this protocol. |
007 | The Two Hybrid System | To construct two bricks that interact with each other allowing CyaA activation. The activation only occurs if the proteins bound to CyaA interact with each other. This interaction allows CyaA to produce cAMP from ATP. |
008 | Peptide Aptamer Screening | To screen for peptide aptamers using the twohybrid system. |
