Molecular Microbiology of wine yeasts - Wineyeasts

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2013-171

 
Description of research activity:

Study at the molecular level of the stress response of wine yeasts during their industrial use and its relevance to fermentation efficiency. The group mainly focuses on the characterisation of the oxidative stress response and its relationship with yeast longevity.

Scientific-technical goals:
  • Identidificacion de los mecanismos moleculares implicados en la respuesta a daño oxidativo durante el uso industrial de levaduras vinicas
  • Estudio del impacto de la regulacion del metabolismo en la longevidad de las levadura S cerevisiae durante el proceso de fermentacion vinica
  • Identificacion de compuestos quimicos artificiales y nutraceuticos capaces de atenuar el daño oxidativo y de retrasar el envejecimiento
