Enrichment of autotrophic denitrifiers and investigation of their use in bio-desulfurization of ground tire rubber
Çataklı, Tercan; Bayramoğlu, Tuba Hande; Department of Environmental Engineering (2020-10-9)
Many new methods have been developed for the recycling of waste tires. Among these developed methods, bio-desulfurization takes attention with its low energy requirement, selectively breaking S bonds without damaging the rubber main chain and being an environmentally friendly application. This thesis aims to investigate the enrichment and use of sulfur-driven autotrophic denitrifiers for bio-desulphurization of ground tire rubber (GTR). In the first part of the study, sulfur-based autotrophic denitrifiers w...
Degradation of decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) in microcosms mimicking sediment environment subjected to comparative bioremediation strategies
Demirtepe, Hale; İmamoğlu, İpek (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01)
The aim of this study was to examine bioremediation strategies for BDE-209 contaminated sediments. Sediment microcosms were established to observe anaerobic debromination of BDE-209 under conditions representing three bioremediadon strategies: biostimulation, bioaugmentation and natural attenuation. To simulate biostimulation, a defined mineral medium containing both a carbon source (sodium formate) and electron donor (ethanol) was added into sediments. Bioaugmentation was established by enrichment of the s...
Synthesis of new mediators for electrochemical nad/nadh recycling
Khalily, Mohammad Aref; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2011)
The synthesis of enantiopure compounds can be achieved by using dehydrogenases as biocatalysts. For instance, reduction reactions of prochiral compounds (ketones, aldehydes and nitriles) into chiral compounds can be achieved by dehydrogenases. These dehydrogenases are cofactor dependent where cofactor is Nicotinamide Adenin Dinucleotite having some restrictions that confines usage of dehydrogenases in organic synthesis including instability of cofactor in water and high cost. Therefore, suitable recycling m...
Engineering of alcohol dehydrogenase 2 hybrid-promoter architectures in Pichia pastoris to enhance recombinant protein expression on ethanol
Ergun, Burcu Gunduz; Gasser, Brigitte; Mattanovich, Diethard; Çalık, Pınar (2019-07-09)
The aim of this work is to increase recombinant protein expression in Pichia pastoris over the ethanol utilization pathway under novel-engineered promoter variants (NEPVs) of alcohol dehydrogenase 2 promoter (P-ADH2) through the generation of novel regulatory circuits. The NEPVs were designed by engineering of transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) determined by in silico analyses and manual curation systematically, by (a) single-handedly replacement of specified TFBSs with synthetic motifs for Mxr1, Ca...
