Genomic model research on redOrbit

The oceans, which make up 71 percent of our planet’s surface, are home to microorganisms that are adapted to life strategies along a continuum of two extremes: those that thrive in nutrient-rich waters often associated with warmer regions and those that prefer nutrient-poor waters. Collected from waters off the Alaskan coast, the bacterium Sphingopyxis alaskensis… [Read More]

T. reesei research on R&D Daily

Now an international team of researchers led by scientists at the DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI), the French applied research center IFP—particularly concerned with renewable resources and energies—and the Vienna Univ. of Technology (TU Vienna) provides the first genome-wide look at what these mutations are in order to understand just how cellulase production was first… [Read More]

IMG 2.9 – now with over 5,000 genomes

IMG 2.9 now contains 5,115 genomes and 6,514,244 genes. It also includes a phylogenetic tree-based genome browser, a dotplot tool for comparison studies, tools to look at horizontal gene transfer, and Arthrobacter chlorophenolicus protein expression data. Learn more at the IMG system site. [Read More]

T. reesei research on Checkbiotech

The current study complements last year’s publication of the T. reesei genome, which was sequenced at the DOE JGI. The authors looked at the sequence of the reference strain named for the Army quartermasters, QM6a, noted Baker. “Now we’re looking at strains such as RUT C30, which is a parent strain for many cellulase producing… [Read More]

T. reesei research on e Science News

During World War II, T. reesei frustrated American Army quartermasters in the South Pacific by speeding up the rate at which canvas supplies wore out. Now the same fungus is a key producer of industrial enzymes that are used, among other applications, to break down biomass for biofuel production. Part of the makeover can be… [Read More]

T. reesei research on Brightsurf

In half a century, one fungus has gone from being the bane of the Army quartermasters’ existence in the Pacific to industry staple and someday, as part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s mission to promote national energy security through clean, renewable energy development, a biofuel producers’ best friend. Trichoderma reesei’s makeover is due in… [Read More]

Stinky bacteria for cleaning radioactive metals in AZ mine

Wall and her team are investigating the basic genetics and metabolism of these bacteria. They are building on discoveries funded by the Department of Energy’s Joint Genome Institute that has sequenced the genomes of about 14 strains and is working on a dozen more. With a roadmap of the 3,570,858 base pairs of DNA from… [Read More]
