This year’s iGEM project of the Berlin team is all about plastic - to be specific: microplastic and the clearance of our water with the aid of Synthetic Biology.<br/>
+
  <!-- color in h1-->
−
The idea is to build a modular filter system for wastewater treatment plants which is able to degrade plastic. Bakterial flagella, moleculare hair-like structures, are equipped with a combination of enzymes that are able to breakdown plastic molecules. <br/>

<h4>Detailed Information:</h4>
+
      <font color="#FFFFFF">
−
Every year 280 million tons of additional plastic waste contaminate the oceans.<sup>[1]</sup><br/>
+
      <b style="background-color: #000000">
−
Nowadays plastic is everywhere: it is not only used for the packaging of groceries but also in cosmetics, toothpaste and in many other everyday items.<br/>
+
      Reduce <strong>microplastic</strong> in our <strong>water.</strong> <br />
−
Flowing in the wastewater of our homes or in that of industrial processes microplastic finds its way into the wastewater treatment plant, where it cannot be filtered out sufficiently.<br/>
+
      That’s the aim of the interdisciplinary iGEM Team Berlin! <br />
−
After leaving the sewage plant with the treated water it is introduced into the environment.<br/>

<br/>

      </font>

Animals and organisms living in lakes, rivers or the ocean take up plastic particles which can often lead to their death by mechanical injuries or obstruction of food intake and digestion.<br/>
+
    </p>

An average number of 35 plastic pieces was found in 95% of german kingfisher birds. <sup>[2]</sup><br/>

</div>

The aim of the iGEM Team Berlin 2015 is to go about this complex problem by means of synthetic biology using natural products, which are produced by microorganisms, to design a molecular filtering machine – the Enzymatic Flagellulose.<br/>
+
     
−
The filter consists of a surface made up of cellulose to which bacterial flagella will be immobilized, whereby the attachment will be achieved via a cellulose-binding domain. In our case, cellulose itself does not provide any functionality besides acting as a biocompatible carrier. The single flagella-subunits, also known as flagellin, will be interlinked with plastic degrading enzymes. Thus, this system enables an increased specific surface with highly catalytic activity. Microplastics will be decomposed into biodegradable units by the enzymes and will not constitute a threat to the environment anymore.<br/>
+
</div> <!-- End Cover -->
−
The Enzymatic Flagellulose unit will be integrated within the secondary wastewater treatment, where biological oxidation takes place. That way, the release of microplastics into the environment, its distribution, and related environmental consequences can be prevented.<br/>
+
 
−
Furthermore, our functionalized matrix can be expanded to other environmental problematic issues, such as removing medicine residues or pesticides, besides microplastics, from wastewater.<br/>
+
 
−
Thus, it offers a wide range of application possibilities. By varying and combining the interlinked enzymes of different functions it can be applied diversely and simultaneously for various purposes such as the degradation of drug residues in wastewater.<br/>

iGEM Berlin 2015 | TU-Berlin

Enzymatic Flagellulose

Project

This year’s iGEM project of the Berlin team is all about plastic - to be specific: microplastic and the clearance of our water with the aid of Synthetic Biology.
The idea is to build a modular filter system for wastewater treatment plants which is able to degrade plastic. Bacterial flagella, moleculare hair-like structures, are equipped with a combination of enzymes that are able to decompose plastic molecules.

Team

Our team is made up of 12 undergraduates and postgraduates from different disciplines as well as our supervisors. The iGEM Team Berlin 2015 is an assembly of highly motivated students from different universities. Due to the multidisciplinarity our team is able to find different strategies to solve complex problems in synthetic biology. Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Nediljko Budisa group leader of the Biocatalysis Group at the TU-Berlin. Our lab is located at the Müller-Breslau-Straße 10, 10623 Berlin (Germany).

Safety

One very positive aspect of our Enzymatic Flagellulose is that it does not consist of any microorganisms, but of their products or parts. Our modular filter is biocompatible, which means it is environmentally friendly — our product should not affect the environment negatively, nor should it pose a threat to humans since no dangerous compounds are involved.

Synenergene

SYNENERGENE is a four-years mobilization and mutual learning action plan (MMLAP) supported by the European Commission under the 7th Framework Programme. The project aims to contribute to Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) in synthetic biology by establishing an open dialogue between stakeholders concerning synbio’s potential benefits and risks, and by exploring possibilities for its collaborative shaping on the basis of public participation.

Notebook

In our Notebook we provide a summary of our labwork and an overview over the used protocols. The daily labwork is summarized in weeks in order to achieve a better overwiev. The protocols are provided in pdf format to be able to download and redo the protocols for further teams.
