1. Constraint-based modeling of yeast metabolism and protein secretion
Sammanfattning : Yeasts are extensively exploited as cell factories for producing alcoholic beverages, biofuels, bio-pharmaceutical proteins, and other value-added chemicals. To improve the performance of yeast cell factories, it is necessary to understand their metabolism. LÄS MER
2. Conversion processes for biofuel production
Sammanfattning : Despite the global positive impacts of soybean-, maize- and sugarcane-based (first-generation) liquid biofuels, several drawbacks pertaining to increased use of agricultural land, causing deforestation in some countries and extensive practice of fertilizers have been observed. As a result, developing advanced (second- and third-generation) liquid biofuels have been identified as better alternatives and are considered to be of great importance in the future. LÄS MER
3. Characterisation of two novel oleaginous yeast strains for efficient and sustainable production of acetyl-CoA derived products
Sammanfattning : Yeasts are major players in industry for production of valuable compounds. The market for yeast bioproduction is constantly growing, and sustainable bioproduction from renewable feedstocks is becoming increasingly important. LÄS MER
4. Combining Metabolic Engineering and Synthetic Biology Approaches for the Production of Abscisic Acid in Yeast
Sammanfattning : Nature presents us with a myriad of complex and diverse molecules. Many of these molecules prove to be useful to humans and find applications as pharmaceuticals, biofuels, agrochemicals, cosmetic ingredients or food additives. One highly promising natural product with a broad range of potential applications is the terpenoid abscisic acid (ABA). LÄS MER
5. Yeasts as cellular factories: Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains with improved inhibitor-tolerance to furaldehydes via a mutant alcohol dehydrogenase- and- Human ameloblastin production in Pichia pastoris
Sammanfattning : Several yeast species, usually engineered by humans in order to produce compounds of biotechnological interests, are currently used as cellular factories. This thesis presents two main themes. LÄS MER
