<p>We began our project by identifying a range of BioBrick parts present in the iGEM 2014 distribution kit which we required as part of our cloning strategy. These parts primarily consisted of both constituitive and inducible promoter systems with ribosome binding sites which we could then use in conjunction with our azo-reductase BioBricks to assemble a functional azo dye degrading gene. We also decided that we would use the Red Florescent Protein expressing BioBrick as a control for any further transformation experiments. As the level of DNA present within each plate of the distribution kit is insufficient to perform digest and ligation reactions on it was necessary to transform each of these plasmids into our NEB5alpha competent cells. After growing our transformed cells overnight we then mini-prepped each of them to obtain BioBrick plasmids at suitable concentrations for future experiments.</p>

<p>We plan to create a complete synthetic azo dye decolourising device in <em>E. coli</em> which incorporates several different independent enzymes that act on azo dyes and their breakdown products. After evaluating their individual breakdown characteristics, we aim to investigate the potential synergistic action of these enzymes in a single synthetic <em>E. coli</em> device and design a <a data-tip="true" class="top large" data-tip-content="We developed a novel platform for industrial scale sustainable bioremediation." href="https://2014.igem.org/Team:UCL/Science/Bioprocessing"><b>bioprocess</b></a> which could be used to upscale the method to an industrial context. </p>

In an industrial setting, these enzymes would work sequentially in a bioreactor with preset dynamic conditions. First, azoreductase will <a data-tip="true" class="top large" data-tip-content="Via a double reduction using NADPH as a cofactor." href="javascript:void(0)"><b>cleave the azo-bond (N=N)</b></a>, producing a series of highly toxic aromatic amines. Then, these compounds will be oxidised by lignin peroxidase, laccase and bacterial peroxidases, completing decolourisation and decreasing <a data-tip="true" class="top large" data-tip-content="To the point that the final products of the process are less toxic than the intact dyes themselves." href="javascript:void(0)"><b>toxicity levels</b></a>.
 
-
<br><br>

The complementary action of azoreductase, lignin peroxidase, laccase, and bacterial peroxidases will be studied in order to find out the best possible approach of sequential reaction, and this core degradation module will be extrapolated to other areas such as BioArt projects and work on <a data-tip="true" class="top large" data-tip-content="Trying to set up the foundations for a synthetic ecology." href="javascript:void(0)"><b>algal-bacterial symbiosis</b></a>.<br><br><br></p>

<p>Another azoreductase that we will be using is isolated from <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em>. It functions in the same way as Azoreductase R1 - cleaving the azo bond - but it is intended to work complementary with it, in order to cover a wider spectrum of dyes more efficiently. <br><br>Like the previous azoreductase, this BioBrick will be constructed using PCR. A promoter and a ribosomal binding site (RBS) will then be added to create a functioning composite device. </p><br>

<p>Usually found in white-rot fungi species, its main function in nature is to participate in lignin-degrading processes by these organisms. However, it has also been found to play a role in <a data-tip="true" class="top large" data-tip-content="Using oxidative processes." href="javascript:void(0)"><b>azo dye degradation and decolourisation</b></a>. <br><br>This enzyme, like laccase, would be incorporated in the second step of the reaction to oxidise the products of the azo bond cleavage, in order to achieve greater detoxification. The sequence for the enzyme will be ordered and synthesised, including the BioBrick prefix and suffix. Again, it will function together with a promoter and a RBS.</p><br>

<p>Found in <em>B. subtilis</em>, the physiological function of this newly discovered enzyme is still unclear, although it has shown effectiveness in degrading lignin and azo dyes, which makes it useful for us.

    Silver Medal
    • Our new BioBrick Parts and Devices have been experimentally validated, and work as expected!

    • We documented the characterisation of these parts in the iGEM Parts Registry: BBa_1366003, BBa_1366005, BBa_1366006, BBa_1366007.

    • We submitted those new parts to the iGEM Parts Registry.

    • We discussed how our project could have implications for the environment, security, safety, ethics, ownership and data sharing. Find out more about this in our Sociological Imaginations page!

    Gold Medal
    • We improved the function and characterisation of existing BioBrick Parts, and entered this new information into the Registry. However, this has not been submitted to the registry.

    • We collaborated with other registered iGEM teams.

    • We outlined and detailed a new approach to tack the issues of biosafety in the field of Synthetic Biology. We also explained our story...
