Abstract

The task of the project is to tag the genomes of non-pathogenic microorganisms (a total of 5 bacterial strains) used in the company BiotaTec industrial solutions in such a way that, with the help of these modifications, these microorganisms can be distinguished from naturally occurring or other existing laboratory strains. The genetic modifications will be carried out by prof. Maia Kivisaar research group members at the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology. As a result of the project, genetically modified bacterial strains will be handed over to the company BiotaTec along with the necessary documentation.
