  1. 1. Investigation of an enzymatic cascade for the production of 5- hydroxymethylfurfurylamine

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Sajitha Chandrakumaran; [2023]
    Keywords : Biocatalysis; Silicibacter pomeroyi; transaminase; enzymatic cascade; Cadaverine; Biokatalys; Silicibacter pomeroyi; transaminas; Enzymatisk kaskad; Kadaverin;

    Abstract : Biokatalys medför ett alternativt tillvägagångsätt för att kunna utforska och utveckla kemiskt syntetiserade vägar för produktionen av eftertraktade kemikalier, där hållbarhet och miljön tas till beaktan. I denna studie undersöktes potentialen av en enzymatisk kaskad för produktion av 5-hydroximetylfurfurylamin (HMFA). READ MORE

  3. 2. Relations between intracellular pH and gamma-aminobutyric acid levels in tea (Camellia sinensis) leaves, after two types of anaerobic treatment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Mingmin Tao; [2023]
    Keywords : tea leaves; intracellular pH; gamma-aminobutyric acid; glutamate; decarboxylase; fluorescent dye;

    Abstract : Tea (Camellia sinensis) is one of the three major non-alcoholic beverages in the world. In Gabaron tea, the levels of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are more than 1.3 mg/g. In the human body, GABA lowers blood pressure and cholesterol levels. READ MORE

  4. 3. Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for direct production of 4-hydroxybutyrate from glucose

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Sussan Alipour; [2020]
    Keywords : Escherichia coli; 4- hydroxybutyrate; 4-HB dehydrogenase; 2-oxoglutarate decarboxylase; metabolic engineering; TCA cycle; Succinyl semialdehyde;

    Abstract : Growing concerns of the negative effects on the environment and dependency of fossil fuelsare major driving forces for finding novel sustainable production pathways for plastic.Metabolic engineering has emerged as a powerful tool to enable microorganisms to producenon-native metabolites.

  5. 4. Photosynthetic production of raw materials for jet fuel using cyanobacteria : In vivo study of recombinant oleate hydratase for isobutene production

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Siri Norlander; [2018]
    Keywords : cyanobacteria; oleate hydratase; biofuel; protein expression; isobutene; isobutanol; synechocystis;

    Abstract : Aviation accounts for a significant part of the world’s CO2 emission from the transport sector, but sustainable jet fuels are not as developed or as commonly used as renewable fuels for road vehicles. Biofuels produced through photosynthesis in cyanobacteria are of interest to help solve the pressing issue of CO2 emissions and increased global warming. READ MORE

  6. 5. Metabolic channeling for biofuel production : Co-localization of Pdc and Adh

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Isabel Moreno de Palma; [2017]
    Keywords : Bioethanol; Metabolic channeling; Synthetic biology; fusion of proteins; RNA scaffold; DNA scaffold; protein scaffold;

    Abstract : Enhancing productivity in bioprocesses, especially for biofuel production, is crucial for achieving an environmentally and economically sustainable biotechnology industry.Metabolic channelling occurs in nature when the intermediate between two consecutive enzymes in a pathway is directed from the first enzyme to the second avoiding diffusion in the cytosol.
