From August the biohackers have been working with them to develop a 'public biobrick' (ie. one developed outside of the traditional university or research lab). This biobrick contains antifreeze from the marine bacteria Oceanibulbus Indolifex in a plasmid backbone called PSB1C3 [http://partsregistry.org/Part:pSB1C3] which contains choloramphenical resistance gene. | UCL's [http://2012.igem.org/Team:University_College_London iGem team] got in touch with us in May about a collaboration with their synthetic biology project to make a [http://partsregistry.org/Help:An_Introduction_to_BioBricks biobrick] that could help to clean up plastic floating in the ocean.
