Peptide Characterization:
An important part of the project TU Delft iGEM13 is inhibition of growth or killing of bacteria with the use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). In order to get an idea of the toxicity of our peptides we conducted several minimal inhibiting concentration (MIC) experiments. These MIC measurements where done on E. coli, B. subtilis and S. delphini, with the first as representative of our Gram-negative expression host, the second for the Gram-positive targets and the last for our specific target.
MIC determination:
The MIC of Magainin II on S. delphini, B. subtilis and E. coli were done according to the protocol described [http://2013.igem.org/Team:TU-Delft/PeptideCharacterization here]. Magainin II did not give a measurable reduction in growth below 40µM (Figure 1), making us decide not to proceed testing, as modeling showed it was not possible to reach these concentrations through expression in E.coli.
