1. Engineering Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 for microbial terpenoid production
Abstract : As part of the efforts to develop a carbon-neutral economy, photosynthetic microorganisms such as cyanobacteria have been extensively studied as solar-powered cell factories for the production of organic compounds with industrial interest, using the atmospheric CO2 as carbon source.Among other metabolites, cyanobacteria produce terpenoids, a diverse group of natural products that play pivotal roles in the cell.

3. Adaptations and constraints associated with autotrophy in microbial metabolism
Abstract : Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities are driving climate change, but the pending crisis could be mitigated by a circular carbon economy where released CO2 is recycled into commodity chemicals. Autotrophic microbes can make a contribution by producing chemicals, such as biofuels, from CO2 and renewable energy. READ MORE

5. Strategies to explore the membrane proteome of a cell
Abstract : The cell envelope plays key roles in numerous processes such as maintaining cellular integrity, communication with other cells, signal transduction, maintenance of cellular homeostasis, and regulation of the traffic of molecules between the cell and the extracellular milieu. Essential membrane components in many of these processes are proteins. READ MORE
