Our newest publication is out!

We showed that the yeast core factor (CF) binds and specifically recognizes promoter DNA in a two-step process, after which it will recruit RNA Polymerase I, inducing DNA bending and melting to start the transcription process.

Designer enzyme enables yeast to produce custom fatty acids, reducing need for palm oil

Whether they are laundry detergents, mascara, or Christmas chocolate, many everyday products contain fatty acids from palm oil or coconut oil. However, the extraction of these raw materials is associated with massive environmental issues: Rainforests are cleared, habitats for endangered species are destroyed, and traditional farmers lose their livelihoods.
