1. Engineering cytosolic acetyl-CoA metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Abstract : A Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain carrying deletions in all three pyruvate decarboxylase genes (also called Pdc negative yeast) represents a non-ethanol producing platform strain for biochemical production. However, it cannot grow on glucose as the sole carbon source due to the lack of cytosolic acetyl-CoA for lipid biosynthesis. READ MORE

2. Towards an understanding of diazocyte development and diazotrophy in the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium
Abstract : Trichodesmium is a filamentous cyanobacterium of great ecological significance as it contributes significantly to primary production in oceans through an efficient nitrogen fixation strategy, including a unique cell type, the diazocyte. The aim of this thesis was to generate a deeper understanding of the structural and molecular background related to the development of diazocytes and the maintenance of diazotrophy in Trichodesmium erythraeum IMS101.

3. Protein structures and protein-solvent interactions : development and application of methods in high-resloultion nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Abstract : Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in solution was used for the structural characterization of the proteins glutaredoxin-3 and flavodoxin from E. coli. A new NMR technique for the measurement of three-bond a proton-amide proton scalar coupling constants was developed. READ MORE
