Deinove, TWB Partner to Optimize Deinococcus for Production of Desired Molecules
May 18, 2016http://www.biofuelsdigest.com/bdigest/2016/05/15/deinove-twb-partner-to-map-optimize-deinococcus-bacteria-for-industrial-biotech-production/

In France, Deinove and Toulouse White Biotechnology are collaborating with the MetaToul platform to create an inventory of the potentials of the Deinococcus in the production of molecules of interest, including biofuels.
This mapping will serve as reference to identify and optimize all the metabolic pathways of the Deinococcus model to rapidly reach the target yield and productivity of industrial processes developed by Deinove. Their strain has major advantages and their goal is to enhance its fermentation performance to achieve commercial production processes as quickly as possible.
Emmanuel Petiot, CEO of Deinove, stated that the partnership will reinforce the expertise that Deinove has built around Deinococcus and that they will benefit from TWB to increase performance of the strain towards overproduction of a given compound.
