Biosynthesis and Function of Long Guluronic Acid-Blocks in Alginate Produced by Azotobacter vinelandii
Aarstad, Olav Andreas; Stanisci, Annalucia; Sætrom, Gerd Inger; Tøndervik, Anne; Sletta, Håvard; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Skjåk-Bræk, Gudmund (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)With the present accessibility of algal raw material, microbial alginates as a source for strong gelling material are evaluated as an alternative for advanced applications. Recently, we have shown that alginate from algal ... -
Chitosan as a wound dressing starting material: antimicrobial Properties and mode of action
Matica, Mariana Adina; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Tøndervik, Anne; Sletta, Håvard; Ostafe, Vasile (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Fighting bacterial resistance is one of the concerns in modern days, as antibiotics remain the main resource of bacterial control. Data shows that for every antibiotic developed, there is a microorganism that becomes ... -

Identification of Regulatory Genes and Metabolic Processes Important for Alginate Biosynthesis in Azotobacter vinelandii by Screening of a Transposon Insertion Mutant Library
Mærk, Mali; Jakobsen, Øyvind Mejdell; Sletta, Håvard; Klinkenberg, Geir; Tøndervik, Anne; Ellingsen, Trond Erling; Valla, Svein; Ertesvåg, Helga (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Azotobacter vinelandii produces the biopolymer alginate, which has a wide range of industrial and pharmaceutical applications. A random transposon insertion mutant library was constructed from A. vinelandii ATCC12518Tc in ... -
Mannuronan C-5 Epimerases Suited for Tailoring of Specific Alginate Structures Obtained by High-Throughput Screening of an Epimerase Mutant Library
Tøndervik, Anne; Klinkenberg, Geir; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Svanem, Britt Iren Glærum; Ertesvåg, Helga; Ellingsen, Trond Erling; Valla, Svein; Skjåk-Bræk, Gudmund; Sletta, Håvard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)The polysaccharide alginate is produced by brown algae and some bacteria and is composed of the two monomers, β-d-mannuronic acid (M) and α-l-guluronic acid (G). The distribution and composition of M/G are important for ... -
Structural and functional characterization of the R-modules in alginate C-5 epimerases AlgE4 and AlgE6 from Azotobacter vinelandii
Buchinger, Edith; Knudsen, Daniel H.; Behrens, Manja A.; Pedersen, Jan Skov; Aarstad, Olav Andreas; Tøndervik, Anne; Valla, Svein; Skjåk-Bræk, Gudmund; Wimmer, Reinhard; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The bacterium Azotobacter vinelandii produces a family of seven secreted and calcium-dependent mannuronan C-5 epimerases (AlgE1–7). These epimerases are responsible for the epimerization of β-d-mannuronic acid (M) to ... -
Studier av biofilmdannelse hos Pseudomonas species ved forskjellige dyrkingsmetoder
Storvoll, Eirin (Master thesis, 2011)SINTEF har en konsernsatsing innenfor systembiologi og dette omfatter blant annet forståelse og bekjempelse av biofilmer. Biofilm kan forårsake skader innenfor medisin, matindustri, havbruk og industri. På en annen side ...
