Biography

My laboratory is investigating the physiology and biochemistry of Brettanomyces yeast isolates. We are collecting and characterizing yeast for a variety of physiological properties. Isolates are identified through RFLP mapping and DNA sequencing, and growth under variable conditions is investigated. We are also interested in characterizing yeast enzymes involved in the metabolism of hydroxycinammic acids, components of the plant cell wall on which the yeast reside. This project has both a basic and applied focus.
