• Talent Scout in the Cell Factory
  

  They’re small, but mighty: microorganisms. The industry known as “white biotechnology” takes advantage of their potential in a variety of ways, for example to produce chemicals, medicines, or dietary supplements. The little powerhouses’ work can be found in a whole series of products, the number of more

• Tiny helpers turn waste into valuable materials
  

  The idea is that bacteria shouldn’t only convert waste products into valuable chemicals, but also draw energy from them. After all, they too can be reused for subsequent processes. This vision is what drives Professor Dirk Tischler, who heads the Microbial Biotechnology research group at Ruhr-Univer more

• Biotech materials made simple – crystal structures altered by a single protein
  

  Nacre is not just something pretty to be used for jewellery and decoration. It possesses an intricate layer structure with high strength and hardness, and the naturally formed crystals it contains have some particular properties. This is why industry is working to produce similar materials using bio more

• A chromosomally encoded T7 RNA polymerase‐dependent gene expression system for Corynebacterium glutamicum: construction and comparative evaluation at the single‐cell level

  Summary Corynebacterium glutamicum has become a favourite model organism in white biotechnology. Nevertheless, only few systems for the regulatable (over)expression of homologous and heterologous genes are currently available, all of which are based on the endogenous RNA polymerase. In this stud more

• Predicting complex phenotype–genotype interactions to enable yeast engineering: Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model organism and a cell factory

  Abstract There is an increasing use of systems biology approaches in both “red” and “white” biotechnology in order to enable medical, medicinal, and industrial applications. The intricate links between genotype and phenotype may be explained through the use of the tools developed in systems biol more

• Investigations on diffusion limitations of biocatalyzed reactions in amphiphilic polymer conetworks in organic solvents

  Abstract The use of enzymes as biocatalysts in organic media is an important issue in modern white biotechnology. However, their low activity and stability in those media often limits their full‐scale application. Amphiphilic polymer conetworks (APCNs) have been shown to greatly activate entrapp more
