  2. 1. Phylogenetic and taxonomic studies within Arthonia Ach. (Ascomycetes, Arthoniales)

    Author : Rikard Sundin; Jan-Eric Mattsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Systematics and phylogenetics; Systematik och fylogeni; Plant Systematics; växtsystematik;

    Abstract : The taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus Arthonia was analysed. As a first step, a phylogenetic analysis was performed to test the monophyly of some of the infrageneric groups suggested by earlier authors. The results strongly support that Arthonia, Arthothelium and Arthoniaceae are paraphyletic. READ MORE

  4. 2. Genetic engineering of Yarrowia lipolytica for the sustainable production of food oils

    Author : Oliver Konzock; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; triacyclglycerols; RNA-seq; tolerance; cocoa butter; hydrolysate; yeast; desaturase; filamentation;

    Abstract : The human population and its demand for food oils is constantly growing. However, increasing food oil production currently requires the deforestation of mostly tropical rainforests to allow the plantation of oil crops. READ MORE

  5. 3. Engineering Yeast for the Production of Biologicals

    Author : Veronica Gast; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biopharmaceuticals; genome-scale models.; kinase Gcn2; Recombinant protein production; proteases; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; biologicals;

    Abstract : The market for biopharmaceutical proteins, or biologicals, has been expanding rapidly over the last decades and its value was estimated in 2020 to exceed 300 billion US dollars. Efficient cell factories that produce the biologicals fulfill an essential role within this industry. READ MORE

  6. 4. Sequence- and structure guided engineering of proteins and enzymes for biotechnology and health applications

    Author : Karen Schriever; Per-Olof Syrén; Elton P. Hudson; Eric A. Gaucher; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; protein engineering; enzymology; ancestral sequence reconstruction; antigen engineering; structural biology; terpene cyclases; enzyme thermodynamics; biocatalysis; phosphatases; allosteric regulation; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Proteins are highly diverse and sophisticated biomolecules that represent a cornerstone of biological structure and function and have been exploited in man-made applications for thousands of years. Those proteins that facilitate chemical reactions at physiologically relevant time-scales are referred to as enzymes. READ MORE

  7. 5. Metabolic engineering of S. cerevisiae for the production of flavonoids

    Author : Marta Tous Mohedano; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microbial cell factories; high-value products; sustainability; cinnamic acid; plant natural products; Genetic engineering; yeast;

    Abstract : The interest in the production of natural products such as flavonoids has been increasing during the last decade. Flavonoids have several attractive bioactivities including antitumoral, antioxidant or antimicrobial properties. To produce these high-value products, we usually recur to chemical synthesis or plant extraction. READ MORE
