Current Developments In Biotechnology And Bioengineering by Gunasekaran Gunasekaran, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Functional Genomics and Metabolic Engineeringprovides extensive coverage of new developments, state-of-the-art technologies, and potential future trends in the field, compiling the latest ideas from across the entire arena of biotechnology and bioengineering. This volume provides data-based scientific knowledge and state-of-art information on functional genomics and metabolic engineering. It covers the core subjects of functional genomics, such as epigenomics, metagenomics, genomics of extremophiles, genomics studies in nutrient transport, genomics of miRNA, and genomics of pathogenesis. An overview of metabolic engineering theories and approaches is supported with specific important examples of secondary metabolites, includingStreptomyces, pentose utilization inE. coli, bacterial ethanol fermentation, yeast mediated benzaldehyde biotransformation, carotenoid production, acetic acid production byE. coli, and NADH regeneration. Provides state-of-the-art information and applications of functional genomics and metabolic engineering as applied to biotechnologySupports the education and understanding of biotechnology education and R&DDemonstrates new means of enabling cells to produce valuable proteins, polypeptides, and primary and secondary metabolites | Current Developments In Biotechnology And Bioengineering by Gunasekaran Gunasekaran, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
