What is it all about?

  As previous iGEM teams have shown, synthesizing fully functional magnetosomes in E. coli is highly difficult as more than 60 highly regulated genes are involved. As a more feasible alternative, we simply want to synthesize magnetic nanoparticles in E. coli in order to attract cells with strong magnetic fields.
Therefore we want to use different strategies including manipulation of the iron homeostasis of E. coli, expression of different metal binding proteins such as ferritins and metallothioneins as well as a high-throughput growth medium optimization.

Furthermore, we will work with other metal binding proteins such as metallothioneins and phytochelatin synthases in order to achieve nanoparticle synthesis. Once we have discovered the best way to magnetize E. coli bacteria, we will build and characterize suitable BioBricks that can be used by any research lab or iGEM team in the world in order to remote control the cellular movement.

04/02 Wednesday - Cultivating E. coli Nissle 1917

LB plates were produced without antibiotic. Therefore 10 ml MQ-H2O were sterile filtered in 15 ml falcon tube. 1 capsule Mutaflor 331800 was solved in the sterile water. The E. coli Nissle solution was incubated at 37°C and 200 rpm for 1 h and crossed out at 4 plates to get different dilution of cells.

04/03 Thursday - Genomic DNA extraction of ECN - first step

For extraction of the genomic DNA of E. coli Nissle, 2 E. coli colonies were oicked from LB plate (dilution 1:103) and used for inocculation of 6 ml LB precultures. These were grown over night at 37°C and 200 rpm.

04/04 Friday - Genomic DNA extraction of ECN - second step

For preperation of the genomic DNA 1 ml of each preculture was taken and a genomic extraction performed using the Wizard Genomic DNA purification Kit. See instructions of the purification Kit by Promega. Genomic DNA was stored at 12°C in fridge. As E. coli Nissle is a natural organism without resistence genes both precultures were streaked out on LB, LB+KAN and LB+AMP. All plates were incuvated over the weekend at 37°C. DNA concentration was meassured by 260 nm using Goldi. DNA was diluted 1:40 in a UV cuvette and DNA absorption meassured at 260/28 nm in goldi.

Bacteria growth only on LB plate indicates that there was no contamination with AMP or KAN restinatant E. coli. This doesn´t mean that there is no contamination at all. See for sure on PCR. {| class="wikitable" |- ! LB !! LB+KAN !! LB+AMP |- | + || - || - |}

To pepare the knockout 5 µl CM solution (pFerritin with canamycin resistance cassette)and 500 µl culture solution were added to 5 ml LB media. For each stain two samples were determined (RV1/2 and N1/2). The samples were incubated at 37°C up to an OD600 of 0.53-0.55. After incubation 1 ml of each culture was transfered in sterile eppi and washed for 7 min at 7000 rpm and 4°C. The supernatant was descarded, the pellet was resuspended in 1 ml sterile H2O and washed for 7 min at 7000 rpm and 4°C and descarded the supernatant. The pellet of N1 was resuspended in 25 µl pRFP (c = 41 ng/µl) and 25 µl sterile H2O. The pellets of N2 and RV1/2 were resuspended in 2 µl pRFP and 50 µl sterile H2O. 50 µl of each suspension were transfered in electroporation cuvette and electroporated for a few sec (table below). Directly after this, 1 ml fresh LB media (37°C) was added, the suspension was transfered in a sterile eppi and incubated at 37°C at 600 rpm.

=== Detection PCR === kan-deletion-cassette for FieF and FUR Genes was transformed into 2 different strains (MG1655 and λ MAGE). Additionally pCP20 was already transformed into one of the λ MAGE Clones (has to be re-validated).
The positive clones have to be validated.
