Breast Cancer Risk after Diagnostic Gene Sequencing (BRIDGES) (BRIDGES)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2020,
Breast cancer affects more than 360,000 women per year in the EU and causes more than 90,000 deaths. Identification of women at high risk of the disease can lead to disease prevention through intensive screening, chemoprevention or prophylactic surgery. Breast cancer risk is determined by a combination of genetic and lifestyle risk factors. The advent of next generation sequencing has opened up th ...

Virus-X: Viral Metagenomics for Innovation Value (Virus-X)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2020,
Biological sequence diversity in nowhere as apparent as in the vast sequence space of viral genomes. The Virus-X project will specifically explore the outer realms of this diversity by targeting the virosphere of selected microbial ecosystems and investigate the encoded functional variety of viral gene products. The project is driven by the expected large innovation value and unique properties of ...

Developing a validated technology platform for the application of oxygen dependent enzymes in synthesis and transformation of alcohols (BIOOX)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
Currently the aerobic bio-catalytic oxidation reaction is the one that would have the biggest impact on the future uptake of industrial biotechnology in Europe. Chemical oxidation is both hazardous and has high environment impacts. Many oxidative bio-catalytic reactions and transformations have been identified in academic laboratories but only a very small number have been applied by industry to o ...

Sucrose Synthase as Cost-Effective Mediator of Glycosylation Reactions (SUSY)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,
Glycosyl transferases (GT) are extremely efficient biocatalysts that can be used for the synthesis of special carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. Famous examples of such products include human milk oligosaccharides that serve as prebiotics, and glycosides of flavonoids with improved stability and solubility. Unfortunately, the large-scale application of GT has been hampered by their low operational ...

The discovery, development and demonstration of biocatalysts for use in the industrial synthesis of chiral chemicals (KYROBIO)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
The objective of KYROBIO project is to broaden the toolbox of single enantiomer chiral chemicals that are produced by industry in Europe using biotechnological routes. The main target is applications of lyase enzymes to selectively synthesize molecules with multiple chiral centres applying enzymatic carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen bond formation as the key technical platforms. We will then apply ...

An interactive protein engineering portal with validated software and database facilities (NEWPROT)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
Two academic groups and eight SMEs who all work on different aspects of protein engineering will collaborate and produce a website that will consist of a portal with an embedded workbench to provide users a self-service system for in silico protein engineering. This interactive self-service portal will give users access to a wide variety of protein engineering facilities and information systems, a ...
