DISCOmega: Linking omega 3 content and membrane fluidity in yeasts using DISCO beamline
2015
Froissard, Marine
With this project, which requires the synchrotron light, we intend to study precisely the phenotypic variability (membrane fluidity) of a subset of species from Saccharomycotina, some Debaryomyces, which are of high interest for food biotechnology and produce omega 3 fatty acids. We hypothesize that contrasted omega 3 fatty acid content lead to specific physiological properties like contrasted membrane fluidity. To confirm our model we need DUV DISCO beamline to perform measurement of fluorescence anisotropy.
