Tasks

 

·              “fish” genes from exotic lactic acid bacteria like Oenococcus oeni and Oenococcus kitaharae by PCR and gene walking

 

·              Bioinformatics: get the sequences of your genes, do orthology and homology research, cladistic interpretation, identify conserved domains... publish the sequences in a database, study PTS-system

·              Expression in lactic acid bacteria (self clones) with fusion tags

·              Enzyme purification and characterization, Michaelis Menten Kinetics, test transglycosylase activities

·              Immobilization on non-toxic polymers

·              If you want, directed evolution by site directed or random mutagenesis to improve pH stability

·              Hydrolyze aroma precursors from wine or fruit juices

·              Sensory evaluation, aroma profiling by GC-MS, chemical nose....
