ENHANCED 3-HYDROXYPROPIONIC ACID PRODUCTION FROM ACETATE VIA THE MALONYL-COA PATHWAY IN CORYNEBACTERIUM GLUTAMICUM

Enhanced 3-Hydroxypropionic Acid Production From Acetate via the Malonyl-CoA Pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum

Acetate is an economical and environmental-friendly alternative carbon source.Herein, the potential of harnessing Corynebacterium glutamicum as a host to produce 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) from acetate was explored.First, the expression level of malonyl-CoA reductase from Chloroflexus aurantiacus was optimized through several strategies, strain

Evaluative conditioning induces changes in sound valence

Hand Creams Evaluative Conditioning (EC) has hardly been tested in the auditory domain, but it is a potentially valuable research tool.In Experiment 1 we investigated whether the affective evaluation of short environmental sounds can be changed using affective words as unconditioned stimuli (US).Congruence effects on an affective priming task (APT)

Optimizing reproducibility of operant testing through reinforcer standardization: identification of key nutritional constituents determining reward strength in touchscreens

Abstract Reliable and reproducible assessment of animal learning and behavior is a central aim of basic and translational neuroscience research.Recent developments in automated operant chamber technology have led Espresso Machine (Prosumer) to the possibility of universal standard protocols, in addition to increased translational potential, reliabi
