Exploiting native endowments by re-factoring, re-programming and implementing novel control loops in Pseudomonas putida for bespoke biocatalysis (EmPowerPutida)

Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

We aim to engineer the lifestyle of Pseudomonas putida to generate a tailored, re-factored chassis with highly attractive new-to-nature properties, thereby opening the door to the production of thus far non-accessible compounds. This industrially driven project capitalises on the outstanding metabolic endowment and stress tolerance capabilities of this versatile bacterium for the production of spe ...

From sea-bed to test-bed: harvesting the potential of marine microbes for industrial biotechnology (SeaBioTech)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2016,

SeaBioTech is a 48-month project designed and driven by SMEs to create innovative marine biodiscovery pipelines as a means to convert the potential of marine biotechnology into novel industrial products for the pharmaceutical (human and aquaculture), cosmetic, functional food and industrial chemistry sectors. SeaBioTech will reduce barriers to successful industrial exploitation of marine biodivers ...

Integration of Bio-Conversion and Separation Technology for the production and application of platform chemicals from 2nd generation biomass (BIOCONSEPT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

BioConSepT aims to demonstrate the technically feasibility of White Biotech processes for the conversion of 2nd generation biomass into platform chemicals, which are 30% cheaper and 30% more sustainable than existing chemical routes or 1st generation processes. BioConSepT uses lignocellulose and non-edible oils & fats as cheap, abundantly available feedstocks, which cannot be used as food. The ma ...

The discovery, development and demonstration of biocatalysts for use in the industrial synthesis of chiral chemicals (KYROBIO)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

The objective of KYROBIO project is to broaden the toolbox of single enantiomer chiral chemicals that are produced by industry in Europe using biotechnological routes. The main target is applications of lyase enzymes to selectively synthesize molecules with multiple chiral centres applying enzymatic carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen bond formation as the key technical platforms. We will then apply ...

An interactive protein engineering portal with validated software and database facilities (NEWPROT)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Two academic groups and eight SMEs who all work on different aspects of protein engineering will collaborate and produce a website that will consist of a portal with an embedded workbench to provide users a self-service system for in silico protein engineering. This interactive self-service portal will give users access to a wide variety of protein engineering facilities and information systems, a ...

AmylolEnzymes Captured by Targeted Metagenomics (AMYLOMICS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

The aim of the AMYLOMICS project is to develop novel, robust enzymes for the starch and carbohydrate industries. The novel enzymes should enable the formation of new primary products, such as oligosaccharides of defined sizes, composition and degree of branching, new types of linkages, cyclic or more complex polysaccharides and an increased digestive resistance, as well as secondary sugar deriv ...
