OVERVIEW
The following page describes the summarized results of our work in each of our subprojects. Please visit the corresponding links to the subproject specific pages to get more details on the background information and our methods.
ENGINEERING SUCCESS
Cellulase Integration
Go to Cellulase page
In order to provide a sustainable, community-based solution, we plan to genetically modify Rhodosporidium toruloides, an oleaginous yeast that naturally produces beta-carotene and lipids, to be more robust and resource-efficient. By modifying the yeast to produce cellulase, it can then use common agricultural waste products as an energy source for synthesizing its oil. It can then be eaten as a vitamin A supplement. The yeast strain, while naturally safe and non-pathogenic, will also be genetically modified to include a kill switch for bio-containment, and optimized for oil production.
