  1. 3. The n-butanol pathway from this organism was inserted into S. cerevisiae
  2. 7. Patch density is defined as the ratio of this to cell area
  3. 8. This property was increased to improve tolerance to MCFAs (3 words)
  4. 10. Addition of 0.8% (v/v) n-butanol causes WT cells to arrest in this phase of the cell cycle (2 words)
  5. 12. This property was decreased to enhance alcohol tolerance (3 words)
  6. 13. This parameter is defined as the ratio of cable length to the distance between endpoints
  7. 14. This protein was used as a reporter for the repression unit
  8. 16. An advantage of engineering actin cables is less disruption to this cycle (3 words)
  9. 18. Addition of 0.2mM decanoic acid delayed formation of the endosome and this organelle

  1. 1. Addition of 0.8% (v/v) n-butanol causes wild type yeast cells to adopt this type of morphology
  2. 2. Engineering actin patches has this advantage over engineering transcription factors (3 words)
  3. 4. Along with rational engineering, this strategy has previously been employed to increase yeast tolerance to alcohols (3 words)
  4. 5. This gene is responsible for the production of a-factor
  5. 6. Besides propidium iodide, this was used to stain dead cells
  6. 9. Engineering membrane transporters may not directly stabilize intracellular pH because of non-specific export of these (2 words)
  7. 11. The MCFA production strain was constructed by reinforcing the endogenous fatty acid pathway and engineering these (3 words)
  8. 15. In the n-butanol producing strain, alcohol dehydrogenase from this organism was integrated into the genome
  9. 17. Generally, this part of cells is prone to damage by biofuels
