Toward Methanol-Based Biomanufacturing: Emerging Strategies for Engineering Synthetic Methylotrophy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
The global expansion of biomanufacturing is currently limited by the availability of sugar-based microbial feedstocks, which require farmland for cultivation and therefore cannot support large increases in production without impacting the human food supply.

Rare earth elements in biology: From biochemical curiosity to solutions for extractive industries. [PDF]
To meet society's demands for technologies that use rare earth elements (including those that allow a decarbonized society), we need to increase the volume and efficiency of extraction by mining and recycling. Microbial rare earth biochemistry offers numerous enabling biotechnologies to achieve this. Abstract Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical for

The cofactor challenge in synthetic methylotrophy: bioengineering and industrial applications
Methanol is a promising feedstock for industrial bioproduction: it can be produced renewably and has high solubility and limited microbial toxicity. One of the key challenges for its bio-industrial application is the first enzymatic oxidation step to formaldehyde.

We integrated taxonomic with functional gene analysis, which enabled to shed light not only on community compositions but also on long‐term eco‐physiological adaptations and ecosystem functioning. Various genes coding enzymes responsible for biomass degradation, carbon metabolism, and adaptation to environmental stress were identified and traced over ...
