OUR TEAM:::SUMMARY ::: BACKGROUND ::: STRATEGY ::: CONSTRUCTS ::: RESULTS ::: ONGOING WORK

  • Ongoing work includes:
    • Characterization of resveratrol production using only 4CL:STS and feeding p-coumaric acid.
    • Construction of the full biosynthetic circuit and characterization of resveratrol production.
    • Redesign circuit so that an antibiotic selection using bleocin (toxic) is not required.
    • Possible switch to fluorescent screen (green beer?)
    • Adding woodchips to feed additional coumaric acid into the fermenting mix for additional resveratrol gain and improved taste.
    • Exploration of using our biosynthetic circuit in other industrial strains of yeast for resveratrol infused cider, wine, whiskey, bourbon, vodka, etc.
