''S.cerevisiae'' is our main organism. We want to produce steviol in yeast and we did the transformations in this organism. In addition we are able to do the transformations via gap repair which is possible in yeast because of its ability for homologue recombination with only about 40 bp.

Organisms

Organisms used in our LabWork

Escherichia coli

E.coli is a well known model organism for molecular biology. It is a gram negative bacteria whose generation time is about 30 minutes. We used E.coli to amplify the plasmids that we isolated from yeast after transformation via homologue recombination.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae

S.cerevisiae is our main organism. We want to produce steviol in yeast and we did the transformations in this organism. In addition we are able to do the transformations via gap repair which is possible in yeast because of its ability for homologue recombination with only about 40 bp.
