  1. 6. Efficient Conversion of Lignocellulose Hydrolysates- Yeast Tolerance and Redox Metabolism

    Författare :Tobias Modig; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Metabolism; Biokemi; metabolism; hyperosmotic stress; Biochemistry; S. cerevisiae; anaerobic growth; inhibitor tolerance; furfural; lignocellulose; HMF; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The fermentation of lignocellulose hydrolysates by Saccharomyces cerevisiae for ethanol production was investigated. An important problem for the successful conversion of these hydrolysates is that they often are inhibitory. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Biotic and abiotic stress in microorganisms and plants: Some Mechanisms of Stress and Programmed Cell Death. Genetic Engineering Approaches Towards Improved Stress Tolerance

    Sammanfattning : Various forms of stress, such as biotic and abiotic stress, were studied in microorganisms and plants to learn more about the underlying mechanisms of such stress and potential genetic engineering strategies towards stress tolerance. An antifreeze protein from winter flounder, expressed in E. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Advancements in Firefly Luciferase-Based Assays and Pyrosequencing Technology

    Författare :Jonas Eriksson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :bioluminescence; osmolytes; glycine betaine; thermostability; firefly luciferase; inorganic pyrophosphatase; inorganic pyrophosphate; Pyrosequencing technology; secondary DNA-structures; Sequenase; Klenow-polymerase; reaction rates; temperature;

    Sammanfattning : Pyrosequencing is a new DNA sequencing method relying on thesequencing-by-synthesis principle and bioluminometric detectionof nucleotide incorporation events. The objective of thisthesis was improvement of the Pyrosequencing method byincreasing the thermal stability of firefly luciferase, and byintroducing an alternative DNA polymerase and a new nucleotideanalog.

  5. 9. Molecular and Metabolic Aspects of Plant and Bacterial Salt Tolerance

    Författare :Peter Olsson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; metabolism; gamma-aminobutyric acid; Nicotiana tabacum; salinity; hypoxia; heamoglobin; microarray; glycine betaine; NaCl; GABA; Vitreoscilla; calmodulin; Esherichia coli; tobacco; Biokemi; Metabolism; Biochemistry; Arabidopsis;

    Sammanfattning : Salt stress is one of the historically as well as potentially largest agriculture problem humans have faced. Researchers have investigated and tried to solve this problem for a long time. Over 20 reviews have been written on this topic the last five years. LÄS MER

  7. 10. The Cyanophyte Arthrospira Fusiformis in African Waters - Eco-Physiology and Potential Use in Tropical Aquaculture

    Författare :Aidate Mussagy; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; limnology; Marinbiologi; marine biology; aquatic ecology; lipopolysaccharide endotoxins LPS ; salinity; osmoregulation; proline; aquaculture feeds; Artemia.; Hydrobiology; anatoxin; microcystin; ITS sequences; phenotype analysis; taxonomy; Cyanophyceae; Arthrospira fusiformis; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The cyanoprokaryote (blue-green algae) genus Arthrospira occurs in saline, alkaline tropical waters of Africa, Asia, and Central America. Traditionally Arthrospira has been used as a food supplement by the Kanembu tribe of Lake Chad and Aztecs living in the valley of Mexico City. LÄS MER
