Rewiring the Streptomyces cell factory for cost-effective production of biomolecules (STREPSYNTH)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

STREPSYNTH aims to set-up a Streptomyces-based new industrial production platform (SNIP) for high value added biomolecules. Streptomyces lividans was chosen as a bacterial host cell because it has been already shown to be highly efficient for the extracellular production of a number of heterologous molecules that vary chemically, has a robust tradition of industrial fermentation and is fully acces ...

InFLUenza virus UNIVersal VACcine development program (FLUNIVAC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

Effectively protecting the general population from seasonal and pandemic influenza has proven to be a challenge, since influenza viruses continue to escape from and evade immunity. Current influenza vaccines fail to provide long-lasting and broad protection against multiple strains of influenza. For the development of a universal influenza vaccine, we have to “do better than Nature”, since even na ...

Oral Vaccination against Clostridium difficile Infection (CDVAX)

Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is a major threat to public health in the industrialised world, particularly in Europe. In many EU countries C. difficile now eclipses Methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) with hospital acquired infection mortality exceeding that of MRSA by a factor of four. C. difficile is resistant to a wide range of antibiotics with hypervirulent and multiple drug resista ...
