  6. 4. Towards renewable chemicals production in cyanobacteria

    Author : Kateryna Kukil; Pia Lindberg; Yu Jianping; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synechocystis PCC 6803; metabolic engineering; succinate; phenylpropanoids; laboratory evolution; Chemistry with specialization in Molecular Biomimetics; Kemi med inriktning mot molekylär biomimetik;

    Abstract : The intensive fossil fuel combustion by humanity resulted in the increase of atmospheric CO2 concentration creating the greenhouse effect, which in turn causes severe environmental problems. Thus, humanity should find solutions to decrease dependency on fossil hydrocarbons in order to lower CO2 emission into the atmosphere. READ MORE

  7. 5. New Roads for an Ancient Enzyme : Whole-Cell Studies and New Cofactors for [FeFe] Hydrogenases

    Author : Marco Lorenzi; Gustav Berggren; Hannah Shafaat; Uppsala universitet; []
