We are an interdisciplinary team at the [http://www.lbl.gov/ Berkeley Lab] studying signaling, stress response and tolerance in both environmental and engineered organisms. As the host engineering group at [http://jbei.org/index.html JBEI] we adopt targeted and systems biology approaches to elucidate causes of inhibition during fuel/ solvent production from lignocellulose using the microbes such as ''Escherichia coli'' and ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae''. We hope to engineer better hosts for metabolite production and develop tools that are universally useful for microbial cellular engineering. We are part of the [http://enigma.lbl.gov/ ENIGMA] project where our research includes the study of two component signaling in the model sulfate reducing bacterium ''Desulfovibrio vulgaris'' Hildenborough.

Efflux Pumps provide a direct mechanism to alleviate product toxicity (Image prepared by Everett Kaplan (JBEI))

Welcome to the Mukhopadhyay Group page!!

We are an interdisciplinary team at the Berkeley Lab studying signaling, stress response and tolerance in both environmental and engineered organisms. As the host engineering group at JBEI we adopt targeted and systems biology approaches to elucidate causes of inhibition during fuel/ solvent production from lignocellulose using the microbes such as Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We hope to engineer better hosts for metabolite production and develop tools that are universally useful for microbial cellular engineering. We are part of the ENIGMA project where our research includes the study of two component signaling in the model sulfate reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough. In other bioremediation projects we address degradation of organophosphate and phosphonate compounds. We also study wetting events and signaling in the fabulous cyanobacteria that dominate the desert soil crusts on our planet.
