Applications: A vision and perspectives of the project.
With this project the team not only focuses on the riboswitches use like non-invasive genetic regulators, also we would like to take full advantage and go beyond. Our vision is that the riboswitches could be used to control and redirect the metabolic fluxes in a big scale industrial process, always aiming to optimize and reduce cost in the process. Within the range of industries that can benefit with this system of metabolic regulation are: the food industry, pharmaceuticals, bio-energy, and as such, any industry that has as its objective the production of a metabolite of high economic interest by biotechnological processes. For example, we have the amino acid production like glutamate, aspartic acid and the phenylalanine, which are used like flavoring in the food industry; in another hand, we have the ethanol and biodiesel which are high interest biofuels in the bio-energy industry.
