11. The GRE3 encoded aldo-keto reductase and its influence on xylose fermentation in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains
Abstract : The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to improve ethanol formation from xylose in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. This was achieved by decreasing the xylitol by-product formation. Gre3p is the major xylose-reducing enzyme in S. cerevisiae. READ MORE

12. Designing simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation of lignocellulose for improved xylose conversion
Abstract : Fuel ethanol from lignocellulose is one sustainable alternative to the fossil fuels of today. All sugars in the material must be utilized in order to achieve high overall ethanol yields. Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has been engineered to ferment the pentose sugar xylose from lignocellulose to ethanol. READ MORE

14. Metabolic Engineering of the Pentose Phosphate Pathway of Xylose Fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract : The aim of the work presented in this thesis is the improvement of xylose fermentation performance of recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains expressing XYL1 and XYL2 from Pichia stipitis, encoding xylose reductase (XR) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH). A recombinant strain of S. READ MORE

15. PET studies on the mechanism of monoaminergic drugs
Abstract : Positron emission tomography (PET) is a molecular imaging technique that allows for examinations of neurochemistry directly in the living human brain. In the present thesis, PET was used to assess the pharmacological effects of two drugs representing the major classes of antipsychotic and antidepressant drugs. READ MORE
