The general aim of CHLOROENGIN is to apply synthetic biology and bioprocess engineering principles to develop a platform based on the chloroplast of green microalgae as a chassis to produce valuable biocompounds.
This general aim can bedivided into three main objectives:
1. Expanding the Mocloro toolkit and developing regulatable gene expression systems for advanced chloroplast genome engineering.
2. Bioprocess engineering of mono-rhamnolipid production in C. reinhardtii chloroplast.
3. Establishing C. reinhardtii chloroplast as a platformto produce plant elicitor proteins (PEPrs).
