Controlling Biogenic Amines in Traditional Food Fermentations in Regional Europe (BIAMFOOD)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2011,

"Food fermentations are among the traditional industries that have a long standing history worldwide. In spite of great technological advantages, much of the industry is still based on traditional, experienced-based techniques that are strongly rooted in specific geographic regions. In food fermentations, consortia of microorganisms are essential to the process, and determine the characteristics o ...

Global regulation of lipid biosynthesis in Gram-positive bacteria: structural and biochemical characterization of FapR (FAPR)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2009,

FapR is a transcription factor that negatively controls the expression of several genes of the fatty acid and phospholipid biosynthesis in Bacillus subtilis. It is the first global regulator of lipid synthesis discovered in bacteria and is largely conserved in Gram positive organisms. A key intermediate in fatty acid biosynthesis, malonyl-CoA, acts as a negative effector of the transcriptional rep ...
