1. Regulation of artemisinin biosynthesis in Artemisia annua L
Sammanfattning : Artemisinin and its derivatives are the most powerful medicines against malaria. However,the low annual yield of artemisinin from industry restricts the usage of this effective drug inendemic areas such as Africa. Nowadays the artemisinin industry mainly depends onextractions from Artemisia annua L. LÄS MER

5. Engineering Yeast Metabolism for Production of Sesquiterpenes
Sammanfattning : Sesquiterpenes belong to the large and diverse group of isoprenoids, which are ubiquitous in the plant kingdom and have various applications in the chemical industry as fragrances, pharmaceuticals and as substitutes for petroleum-based gasoline, diesel and jet fuels. In this project, production of sesquiterpenes was studied in Saccharomyces cerevisiae using farnesene as an example with the objective to gain new insights into the synthesis of these compounds and to evaluate different metabolic engineering strategies.
