Assembly and application of genome-scale metabolic models to study Streptomyces coelicolor and Prochlorococcus
Sulheim, Snorre (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:96, Doctoral thesis, 2021)Summary: Metabolism is the set of all chemical reactions responsible for the conversion of nutrients into the energy and cellular building blocks required for growth and cellular maintenance in a living organism. Because ... -
Automatic reconstruction of metabolic pathways from identified biosynthetic gene clusters
Sulheim, Snorre; Fossheim, Fredrik A.; Wentzel, Alexander; Almaas, Eivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background A wide range of bioactive compounds is produced by enzymes and enzymatic complexes encoded in biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). These BGCs can be identified and functionally annotated based on their DNA ... -
Biochemical Characterizations of Enzymes from Oil Reservoir Metagenomes
Hesthammer, Ronja Kristine (Master thesis, 2014)Microorganisms have evolved to exist in diverse environments on earth, even under the harsh conditions of oil reservoirs several kilometres below the seafloor. The environmental conditions there are extreme in several ... -

Enzyme-Constrained Models and Omics Analysis of Streptomyces coelicolor Reveal Metabolic Changes that Enhance Heterologous Production
Sulheim, Snorre; Kumelj, Tjasa; van Dissel, Dino; Salehzadeh-Yazdi, Ali; Chao, Du; Van Wezel, Gilles P.; Nieselt, Kay; Almaas, Eivind; Wentzel, Alexander; Kerkhoven, Eduard J (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Many biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) require heterologous expression to realize their genetic potential, including silent and metagenomic BGCs. Although the engineered Streptomyces coelicolor M1152 is a widely used host ... -
Intracellular metabolite pool changes in response to nutrient depletion induced metabolic switching in Streptomyces coelicolor
Wentzel, Alexander; Sletta, Håvard; Wellington, E.M.H.; Ellingsen, Trond Erling; Bruheim, Per (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Abstract: A metabolite profiling study of the antibiotic producing bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) has been performed. The aim of this study was to monitor intracellular metabolite pool changes occurring as strains ... -
Isolation and genome sequencing of four Arctic marine Psychrobacter strains exhibiting multicopper oxidase activity
Shojaei Moghadam, Morteza; Albersmeier, Andreas; Winkler, Anika; Cimmino, Lorenzo; Rise, Kjersti; Hohmann-Marriott, Martin Frank; Kalinowski, Jörn; Rückert, Christian; Wentzel, Alexander; Lale, Rahmi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background Marine cold-temperature environments are an invaluable source of psychrophilic microbial life for new biodiscoveries. An Arctic marine bacterial strain collection was established consisting of 1448 individual ... -
NMR-Structural Analysis of Proteins from Oil Reservoir Metagenomes
Erlandsen, Hilde Opdahl (Master thesis, 2015)Microorganisms are found ubiquitously around the world, where they survive as a result of their specialized biochemical reactions and enzymes. In the extreme environment of deep sea oil reservoirs, the microbes have to ... -
