The identification of novel regulatory elements in the promoters of heat shock response genes
(University of the Western Cape, 2010)The main objective of this study was to investigate promoter sequences of putative HSR genes for the presence of unique regulatory elements and modules that might be involved in the regulation of HSR. In order to achieve ... -
Increasing ethanol tolerance through the heterologous expression of the geobacillus thermoglucosiadius heat-shock proteins (GroEL/GroES) in an escherichia coli host
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)Due to economic and environmental concerns associated with use of fossil fuels, humanity is seeking alternative fuels. Ethanol is one of the alternative fuels produced commercially. Current ethanol production technologies ...
