Other
Gilbert, J. P., Pearcy, N., Norman, R., Millat, T., Winzer, K., King, J., …Twycross, J. (2018). Gsmodutils: A python based framework for test-driven genome scale metabolic model development

Motivation Genome scale metabolic models (GSMMs) are increasingly important for systems biology and metabolic engineering research as they are capable of simulating complex steady-state behaviour. Constraints based models of this form can include tho... Read More about Gsmodutils: A python based framework for test-driven genome scale metabolic model development.

Functional genetic elements for controlling gene expression in Cupriavidus necator H16 (2018)
Journal Article
Alagesan, S., Hanko, E. K., Malys, N., Ehsaan, M., Winzer, K., & Minton, N. P. (2018). Functional genetic elements for controlling gene expression in Cupriavidus necator H16. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.00878-18

A robust and predictable control of gene expression plays an important role in synthetic biology and biotechnology applications. Development and quantitative evaluation of functional genetic elements such as constitutive and inducible promoters, as w...

The butanol producing microbe Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 14988 manipulated using forward and reverse genetic tools (2018)
Journal Article
Little, G. T., Willson, B. J., Heap, J. T., Winzer, K., & Minton, N. P. (2018). The butanol producing microbe Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 14988 manipulated using forward and reverse genetic tools. Biotechnology Journal, https://doi.org/10.1002/biot.201700711

The solventogenic anaerobe Clostridium beijerinckii has potential for use in the sustainable bioconversion of plant-derived carbohydrates into solvents, such as butanol or acetone. However, relatively few strains have been extensively characterised e...

Journal Article
Schatschneider, S., Abdelrazig, S. M., Safo, L., Henstra, A. M., Millat, T., Kim, D.-H., Winzer, K., Minton, N. P., & Barrett, D. A. (2018). Quantitative isotope-dilution high-resolution-mass-apectrometry analysis of multiple intracellular metabolites in Clostridium autoethanogenum with uniformly 13C-labeled standards derived from Spirulina. Analytical Chemistry, 90(7), https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.analchem.7b04758

We have investigated the applicability of commercially available lyophilized spirulina (Arthrospira platensis), a microorganism uniformly labeled with 13C, as a readily accessible source of multiple 13C-labeled metabolites suitable as internal standa...
