  1. 1. The kinetic characterization of mutated cyanobacterial dual-functioning fructose/sedoheptulose bisphosphate using a malachite green colorimetric assay

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Albert Jousif Anis; [2021]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; carbon fixation; metabolic engineering; protein engineering; colorimetric enzyme assay; rational design; enzyme kinetics; applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : The increased human dependence on fossil-based fuels, industrial chemicals, and structural materials has caused a drastic increase in atmospheric CO2 levels during the past 50 years. Consequences of this have been observed in the disruption of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. READ MORE

  3. 2. Isolation of the native chloroplast proteome from plant for identification of protein-metabolite interactions

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Linnéa Strandberg; [2021]
    Keywords : Chloroplast; metabolism; proteomics; Calvin cycle; Arabidopsis; Kloroplast; metabolism; proteomik; Calvincykel; Arabidopsis;

    Abstract : För att kunna livnära en växande population behöver avkastningen på skördar öka. En lösning på dettaär att optimera plantornas fotosyntes, vilket innefattar förbättrad koldioxidfixering. För att lyckas meddet krävs kunskap i hur reglering av nyckelproteiner i kloroplasten går till. READ MORE

  4. 3. Gene overexpression screens to identify limitations on the productivity of cyanobacteria growth

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

    Author : Tobias Willi; [2020]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; Dub-sequencing; competitive growth; overexpression library; Synechocystis 6803; Synechococcus 7002; Synechococcus UTEX 2973; Photobioreactor; Conjugation; mobA;

    Abstract : Cyanobacteria are a model organism for photosynthesis and the Calvin cycle, and a promising chassis for 4th generation biofuel production. There are many ongoing efforts to improve the performance of cyanobacteria, in terms of CO2 fixation and production rate of biofuels. READ MORE

  5. 4. Identification of metabolite-protein interactions among enzymes of the Calvin Cycle in a CO2-fixing bacterium

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

    Author : Emil Sporre; [2020]
    Keywords : Cupriavidus necator; chemolithoautotroph; limited proteolysis; Calvin Cycle; carbon fixation; proteomics; allosteric regulation; metabolite-protein interactions.;

    Abstract : The Calvin – Benson cycle is the most widespread metabolic pathway capable of fixing CO2 in nature and a target of very high interest to metabolic engineers worldwide. In this study, 12 metabolites (ATP, AMP, NADP, NADPH, 2PG, 3PGA, FBP, RuBP, PEP, AKG, Ac-CoA and phenylalanine) were tested for protein – metabolite interactions against the proteome of Cupriavidus necator (previously Ralstonia eutropha) in the hopes of finding potential examples of allosteric regulation of the Calvin – Benson cycle.

  6. 5. Dynamic Fault Tolerance and Task Scheduling in Distributed Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Jonatan Broberg; Philip Ståhl; [2016]
    Keywords : reliability; distributed computing; dynamic fault tolerance; task scheduling; replication; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Ensuring a predefined level of reliability for applications running in distributed environments is a complex task. Having multiple identical copies of a task increases redundancy and thereby the reliability. READ MORE
