Project

Regulation and interaction between the morphological switch and the mannosylerythritol lipids (MEL) production in the yeast Pseudozyma aphidis DSM70725.

This project aims to dig deeper into the molecular mechanisms involved in the induction of mannosylerythritol lipids (MEL) synthesis, with a specific focus on the study of the relationship between the morphological switch of P. aphidis and the MEL production. To achieve our goal, this project will mainly make use of genetic knockout constructs, differential proteome analysis, which are validated by RT-qPCR and fermentative test.
