31. An analytical framework for studying transcriptional regulation
Sammanfattning : The state and behavior of any living cell is controlled by a complex interplay of different regulatory processes, with the regulation of transcription playing a major role. When a cell adapts to a new environment it often does that by modulating gene transcript levels, mainly through changes in transcription factor binding events. LÄS MER
32. Lipid Turnover in Plants and Yeast, A Study of Storage Lipid Synthesis and Lipid-Based Signalling in Plants and Yeast
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, lipid biosynthesis is discussed focussing on the genes and enzymes involved in the final step of storage lipid synthesis, on the enzyme phospholipase A2, and on cell membrane lipid homeostasis. The investigation of lipid metabolism revealed that in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, there are four genes that are essential for the final step of storage lipid biosynthesis; ARE1, ARE2, DGA1, and LRO1.

33. Biobased Adipic Acid - Challenges in Establishing a Cell Factory
Sammanfattning : Growing concern regarding climate change calls for sustainable solutions to significantly reduce our dependency on non-renewable fossil-based raw materials. One potential solution is the development of biorefineries where biobased, renewable raw materials are converted into valuable products via enzymatic, chemical or microbial conversion. LÄS MER
34. Osmoregulation at different stages of the yeast life cycle
Sammanfattning : The ability to adapt to changing and potentially harmful conditions in the surrounding environment is crucial for fitness and survival of all living cells; in particular unicellular organisms, since they are frequently exposed to stress factors such as heat, drought, nutritional starvation and toxic substances. The aim of this thesis is to determine how cells respond to osmotic and nutritional changes in the environment and how downstream targets of signalling cascades are regulated. LÄS MER
35. Ethanol Production from Lignocellulosic Materials: Potential of Continuous Cultivation, Immobilisation, and Zygomycetous Fungi
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the production of bio-ethanol, a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, from dilute-acid lignocellulosic hydrolysate in a continuous immobilised cell system and fermentation of the hydrolysate by a zygomycete organism, M. indicus. LÄS MER
