Demonstrate that at least one new BioBrick Part or Device of your own design and construction works as expected; characterize the operation of your new part/device
- We synthesized the CapD protein coding sequence, <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>, and determined its catalytic constants, as shown here: Find it on our wiki
Characterize the operation of at least one new BioBrick Part or Device and document it in the registry
- We reengineered capD into capD_cp, <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>, which resulted in an increase of the amount of active enzyme produced as well as it's ease of use. We expressed and characterized the enzyme as can be found here: Find it on our wiki
- We introduced and characterized a commonly used f1 phage replication origin, <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>. By incorporating this into current BioBrick plasmids the plasmids can be replicated as double stranded DNA by bacteria or as single stranded DNA by M13 helper phage. The part was characterized as shown here: Find it on our wiki
Characterize or improve an existing BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information back on the Registry
- We made a set of protein expression casette's, allow future teams to make generators in a single round of cloning. To do this we used some new parts (f1 ori, lacR, T7 Promoter) as well as several existing parts (BBa_B0034, High Const#, Low Const #, R0011). We then characterized each cassette's ability to express GFP (##). The results of each expression casette in pSB1C3 are listed here. Further information and characterization of the casette's in different base plasmids (1A3, 3K3, 4A5) can be found in our wiki here: Find it on our wiki
- <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>High Const
- <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>Med Const
- <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>Lac Induc
- <partinfo>BBa_K314011</partinfo>T7 Induc
Develop and document a new technical standard that supports the sharing BioBrick Parts or Devices, either via physical DNA or as information via the internet
- We developed a new software tool that allows users to make interactive images that link to the desired part?
- We developed a new software tool that allows users to submit many BioBricks with the single click?
Gained real-world synthetic biology experience
- Our team was comprised of senior high school students who had never pipetted before to graduating seniors with several years of lab experience. By the end of the summer we had learned many skills in synthetic biology, from cloning gene's, to developing enzyme assays, to writing code!
