To demonstrate that the chaperonin is functional, they must use protein substrates labeled with 35S-methionine. To obtain these proteins, they will express G. gibberifrons actin and tubulin substrates in E. coli in a medium supplemented with 35S-methionine. The E. coli will not be released to the environment.

Activity for Which Permit Is Requested

    Introduce non-indigenous species into Antarctica. The applicant 
plans to use Escherichia coli strain BL21DE3 for production of \35\S-
labeled proteins to be used in protein folding assays performed in the 
Palmer Station laboratories. The applicant will continue analysis of a 
cold-functioning chaperonin protein folding system from testis tissue 
of the Antarctica fish, Gobionotothen gibberifrons. To demonstrate that 
the chaperonin is functional, they must use protein substrates labeled 
with \35\S-methionine. To obtain these proteins, they will express G. 
gibberifrons actin and tubulin substrates in E. coli in a medium 
supplemented with \35\S-methionine.
    The E. coli will not be released to the environment. Cultures will 
be autoclaved to kill the bacteria, and the waste will be disposed via 
the radioactive materials waste stream using approved protocols.

Location
