  1. 1. Vinst och förlust : en fylogenetisk studie av kloroperoxidas-liknande enzym hos jästsvampar

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Beatrice Bylén; [2021]
    Keywords : fylogenetik; sekvenshomologi; Saccharomycotina; knoppjästsvamp; HGT; genförlust; α β-hydrolas; kloroperoxidas;

    Abstract : Knoppjästsvampar är en typ av svampar med encellig morfologi. Knoppjästsvampar utgör Saccharomycotina, en understam till Ascomycota och innefattar mer än 1000 idag beskrivna arter, bland annat bakjästen Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Trots att S. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluating Sugar Signaling during Xylose Oxidation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Viktor Persson; [2020]
    Keywords : Saccharomyces cerevisiae; yeast; xylose oxidation; sugar signaling; biosensor; applied microbiology; teknisk mikrobiologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The sugar signaling state of cells oxidizing xylose was investigated through the chromosomal integration of the Weimberg pathway into previously established biosensor strains capable of monitoring the Snf3p/Rgt2p, SNF1/Mig1p, and cAMP/PKA pathways through the expression of HXT1, SUC2, and TPS1, respectively. Ultimately, two new strains were successfully developed containing both the Weimberg pathway and a biosensor for either HXT1 (TMB CB 112) or TPS1 (TMB CB 117). READ MORE

  4. 3. Using CRISPR/Cas9 to regulate enzyme expression levels in the Weimberg pathway for optimal xylose consumption in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Anna Heiling; [2020]
    Keywords : Yeast; Weimberg pathway; xylose consumption; Applied Microbiology; Teknisk mikrobiologi; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a commonly used industrial organism which cannot consume xylose naturally. This is a problem since xylose is a major component in renewable resources, for instance lignocellulose. The Weimberg pathway is a pathway that converts xylose into α-ketoglutarate. It has been successfully integrated into S. READ MORE

  5. 4. Alternative oxidase respiration in the mycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Hilda Mikaelsson; [2019]
    Keywords : L. bicolor; mycel; ektomykorrhiza; cellandning; AOX; alternativt oxidas; cytokromoxidas; cyanid; mycelium; ectomychorriza; respiration; alternative oxidase; cytochrome oxidase; salicylhydroxamic acid; n-propyl gallate; cyanide;

    Abstract : The temperature on Earth is rising, and one of the main drivers is anthropogen-ic greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2). The world’s forests act as carbon sinks, binding carbon into their biomass. The net carbon assimilation is determined by the uptake and release of CO2 through the processes of photo-synthesis and respiration. READ MORE

  6. 5. Construction and Characterization of 3rd Generation Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains for PHB production form Xylose

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Pálína Haraldsdóttir; [2018]
    Keywords : Applied microbiology; Teknisk mikrobiologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Poly-3-D-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biopolymer naturally produced by a range of bacterial species. PHB production both from glucose and xylose has also been enabled by engineering the robust baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, however yields remain low. In the present study, additional modifications were carried out in S. READ MORE
