production of compounds of
interest
FERMENTATION
EXTRACTION, PURIFICATION• Test and optimize the production process
in increasing volumes
• Produce extracts for testing (efficacy,
pharmacological properties…)
AUTOMATED GENETIC
ENGINEERING• Optimize the strain for end use:
yield, biodisponibility…
• Determine the structure of compounds
produced (antibiotics, carotenoids)
• Analyze the strain metabolism for
optimization purpose
• 6,000 Deinococccus strains
and other rare bacteria
• Culture, selection and
production of extracts
• Sequencing

KEY ADVANTAGES FOR DEINOCOCCUS

400 strains naturally producing carotenoids among the Deinove library
Pathway for carotenoid biosynthesis is already present and active: optimizing the
metabolic performances is easier and more cost-efficient
High-level production can be obtained by metabolic engineering
Fast growing (growth rate= 0,6 h-1)
High cell density (50-60 g/L)
Production from diverse feedstocks (C6 sugars, C5 sugars, polymeric sugars like starch)
A story to be told (3.4 billion-year-old bacterium, anti-aging properties…)
