Acetogenic bacteria are rising in popularity as chassis microbes for biotechnology due to their capability of converting inorganic one-carbon (C1) gases organic chemicals. To fully uncover the potential acetogenic bacteria, synthetic biology tools imperative either engineer designed functions or interrogate physiology. Here, we report a genome-editing tool at one-nucleotide resolution, namely base editing, based on CRISPR-targeted deamination. This combines nuclease deactivated Cas9 with...
Abstract Dissipative Particle Dynamics is a mesoscopic simulation method which allows to predict the self-assembly of amphiphilic polymers and surfactants. It was possible reproduce phase behavior non-ionic surfactant C12E5 in water. The three different phases L 1 , 2 could be characterized with Dynamics.
Abstract Biofuels, such as ethanol, can be produced by the microbial fermentation of waste gases that contain carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and monoxide (CO). The acetogenic model microbe Clostridium ljungdahlii converts those substrates into acetyl-CoA with Wood-Ljungdahl pathway. During autotrophic conditions, reduced further to ethanol via acetic acid enzymes aldehyde:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (AOR) alcohol dehydrogenase. Here, genes encoding both tungsten-dependent AORs ( aor1 , CLJU_c20110...
Abstract The self-assembly of a poly(ethylene oxide)- block -poly(propylene -poly(ethylene oxide) blockcopolymer (EO 13 PO 30 EO ) in the presence water was investigated. phases have been studied with mesoscopic simulation technique Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD). micellar, hexagonal, lamellar, bicontinuous and inverse micellar phase identified this method showed remarkable agreement experimental behavior. This work that simulations are also suitable for complicated polymer systems such...
