| Abstract [eng] |
The object of this project is gallic and p-coumaric acid-inducible gene expression systems, which can be applied as genetically encoded biosensors. Notably, no gallic acid-specific genetically encoded biosensor has yet been developed. Whereas p-coumaric acid is known to be an important precursor of flavonoids, lignans, and stilbenes and is also being used for the production of protocatechuic acid. Therefore, the development of biosensors specific to gallic and p-coumaric acids will provide novel tools for in vivo monitoring and quantification of these industrially important phenolic acids. |
