  4. 2. A Parametric Approach to Yeast Growth Curve Estimation and Standardization

    Author : Ilona Pylvänäinen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioscreen; Chapman-Richards model; growth curve; growth rate; lag time; optical density OD ; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; standardized curve; stationary phase OD increment; summary curve; optical density OD ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of yeast growth. It builds upon a dataset consisting of growth curves of 576 Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants in eight different environments. The data will be a part of a publicly available phenotypic library, PROPHECY, containing growth curves and characteristics of viable S. READ MORE

  5. 3. Engineering Yeast for Functional Analysis of Human Cu Transport Proteins

    Author : Kumaravel Ponnandai Schanmugavel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cu transport; yeast model; Atox1; genetic engineering; Wilson disease protein; ATP7B; complementation assay; yeast growth; metal-binding domain; mechanisms.;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT       Copper (Cu) is an important trace element that plays a vital role in several biological processes. Many proteins that are involved in various biochemical pathways require Cu as a cofactor. READ MORE

  6. 4. CRISPRi/a for investigating yeast tolerance to inhibitors in lignocellulosic hydrolysates

    Author : Ibai Lenitz Etxaburu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lignocellulosic hydrolysates; ChIP-exo; Screening; Biosensor; Formic acid; Competitive growth assay; Yeast; Tolerance; CRISPRi a; Acetic acid;

    Abstract : Saccharomyces cerevisiae has immense potential as a cell factory in various biotechnological processes where biomass from agricultural industry residues is used as feedstock. Nonetheless, the inhibitors released during the pretreatment of the biomass makes lignocellulosic hydrolysates a challenging substrate for microorganisms. READ MORE

  7. 5. The Genetics of Adaptation and Evolvability in Yeast

    Author : Karl Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolution; Genetics; Adaptation; Evolvability; Yeast;

    Abstract : Evolution is the hereditary change in life forms that has shaped the divergence of all organisms that inhabit planet Earth. I used the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to study how adaptive evolution increases the fitness and changes the properties of experimental and natural yeast populations. READ MORE
