Der aktuelle Abstract lautet: The TU Munich iGEM Team engineers Saccharomyces cerevisiae, also known as baker's yeast, in order to contribute to a new generation of functional foods with nutritionally valuable ingredients. More specifically, the team currently designs and produces BioBricks™ to introduce the metabolic pathways for the substances Xanthohumol (anticancerogenic), Limonene (flavor of lime), Caffeine (CNS stimulant) and the protein Thaumatin (sweetener, E957). To achieve this goal the team adapts a yeast shuttle vector (pYES2), uses a yeast integration vector for stable transfections and creates and characterizes constitutive, alcohol- and light-inducible promoter systems. Combining these BioBricks™ will enable the team to brew iGEM’s first SynBio Beer.
