genetically decrease wine alcohol

genetically decrease wine alcohol Description Hypothesis: over expression of GDP1 gene combined with deletion of ALD6 gene in wine yeast strain can decrease yield of alcohol production throughout wine making process. . Experimental design: by overexperssing GDP1 gene which is primarily respoposnsible for encoding isozymes glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, the yeild of glycerol production will increase significantly and enhanced acetic acid production which result in decreased ethanol yeild. However inorder to reverse the negative impact of high concentartion of acetic acid, we will delete the ALD6 gene which encodes for aldehyde dehydrogenase.
