- Explained our idea
- He says that if we're planning to do this commercially we need to be wary of our previous literature, if there was commercial value from this they'd have hid it, or wouldn't properly explain how they obtained such a high yield
- Replace e coli with yeast
- How much sucrose is transported out?
- Dynamics of the cell might not be able to sustain the organism
- He thinks it'll only transport 5-10% out (cscB)
- He thinks the project is academically very good
- Why is yeast preferred over e coli for industrial?
- end productivity gram/litre/day is higher and is commonly used for industrial production
- ecoli product is lower
- after likku's point about yeast not growing as viable in coculture (decrease in viability (hays, ducat, 2017)
- you cannot release more than 20% to the outside of the cell, is a biological/thermodynamci limit
- under stress, the number of cells would go down
- he thinks commercially the yield may not be enough
- We should write to him with specific questions we might have
