1. METABOLÔMICA MICROBIANA: INOVAÇÕES E APLICAÇÕES
Over the past few years, metabolomics has been employed in a broad range of applications in different research fields. Microbial metabolomics has been applied in several microbiological areas, such as identification of microorganisms, cell mutations, functional gene approach, identification of unique metabolic pathways and microbial engineering, leading to a

2. Genetic Engineering In BioButanol Production And Tolerance
ABSTRACT The growing need to address current energy and environmental problems has sparked an interest in developing improved biological methods to produce liquid fuels from renewable sources. Higher-chain alcohols possess chemical properties that are more similar to gasoline. Ethanol and butanol are two products which are used as biofuel. Butanol production

3. The correlation between the central carbon metabolic flux distribution and the number of shared enzyme regulators in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The central carbon metabolic system is the upstream energy source for microbial fermentation. In addition, it is a master switch for increasing the production of metabolites and an important part of the microbial metabolic network. Investigation into the relationship between genes, environmental factors, and metabolic networks is a main focus of systems biol

4. Biotechnology of polyketides: new breath of life for the novel antibiotic genetic pathways discovery through metagenomics
The discovery of secondary metabolites produced by microorganisms (e.g., penicillin in 1928) and the beginning of their industrial application (1940) opened new doors to what has been the main medication source for the treatment of infectious diseases and tumors. In fact, approximately 80 years after the discovery of the first antibiotic compound, and despit

5. Bivalent RNA interference to increase isoflavone biosynthesis in soybean (Glycine max)
In this work, a bivalent RNA interference (RNAi) plant-transformation vector was constructed to silence both the flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H) gene and the flavone synthase II (GmFNSII) gene in soybean (Glycine max). Two further unit RNAi vectors were constructed for each of these two genes. RNAi-mediated suppression of these genes effectively regulated flav

6. Efeitos da adição de complexo multienzimático sobre o desempenho de frangos de corte / Effects of adding multienzyme complex on the performance of broilers
Two experiments were conducted at the Department of Animal Science, University of São Paulo (USP), College of Animal Science and Food Engineering (FZEA) in Pirassununga / SP, with the aim of studying the performance of broilers fed diets supplemented with exogenous enzymes. The experimental diets consisted of corn, soybean meal, vitamins, minerals and exoge

7. An overview of lignin metabolism and its effect on biomass recalcitrance
Lignin, after cellulose, is the second most abundant biopolymer on Earth, accounting for 30% of the organic carbon in the biosphere. It is considered an important evolutionary adaptation of plants during their transition from the aquatic environment to land, since it bestowed the early tracheophytes with physical support to stand upright and enabled long-dis

8. Caracterização de determinantes genéticos envolvidos na qualidade industrial e nutricional do fruto de tomate / Characterization of genetic determinants involved in industrial and nutritional quality of tomato fruit
This thesis addresses tomato fruit metabolism analysis by using three complementary approaches: i) the identification of candidate genes co-located with QTL previously described from metabolic profiles of S. lycopersicum (cv. M82) and S. pennellii introgressed lines, associated with industrial and nutritional quality traits; ii) the structural analyses of th

9. Análise de fluxos metabólicos para otimização da síntese do antibiótico cosmomicina por Streptomyces olindensis ICB20
A análise de fluxos metabólicos (AFM) é uma importante ferramenta de análise do metabolismo celular. O seu conhecimento é de extrema importância para entender como deve ser conduzido às condições de cultivo de um organismo, no sentido de melhorar os processos de obtenção de produtos de interesse do homem, bem como para entender como deve ser manip

10. Engenharia metabólica de leveduras industriais (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) para produção de glicerol / Metabolic engineering of industrial yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae) for glycerol production
A demanda por processos alternativos para produção de compostos químicos tem aumentado nas ultimas décadas em decorrência da necessidade da utilização de fontes renováveis e do desenvolvimento de processos menos agressivos ao meio ambiente. Nesse contexto os processos de fermentação microbiana são cada vez mais considerados passiveis de serem empr

11. Genetic transformation of sugarcane by biolistic and Agrobacterium tumefaciens to study the mechanism of programmed cell death / Transformação genética de cana-de-açúcar por biolística e Agrobacterium tumefaciens visando estudar o mecanismo de morte celular programada
Sugarcane is one of the main crops planted in Brazil and presents significant socioeconomic and agribusiness importance to the country. The world scene is quite favorable as regards the marketing of its two main products, sugar and alcohol, driving the development of the national sugar-alcohol sector. Therefore, the sugarcane genetic breeding appears as the

12. Development of digital behind-the-ear hearing aid with minimal specifications / Desenvolvimento de prótese auditiva retroauricular, digital e de especificações mínimas
The International Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (IFOS) estimates as 10% the total amount of hearing impaired in United States. The Better Hearing Institute asserts that in United States about 31 million people have hearing losses in some degree, say around 10% of total population. Increasing the amount of hearing-impaired there is a list o
