Download PDF by Stephen Van Dien: Metabolic Engineering for Bioprocess Commercialization

By Stephen Van Dien

This quantity experiences the present metabolic engineering instruments and applied sciences from a realistic perspective, and publications researchers as they conquer demanding situations at quite a few levels of organism and bioprocess improvement. Microbes were engineered to supply numerous commercial items equivalent to fuels, simple chemical compounds, wonderful chemical substances, dietary supplementations, and pharmaceutical intermediates, and new instruments equivalent to gene synthesis, complex cloning suggestions, ‘omics’ research, and mathematical modeling have drastically speeded up the speed of innovation within the box. Written via major specialists within the box from either academia and undefined, key themes comprise artificial biology, pathway engineering, metabolic flux manipulation, adaptive evolution, and fermentation procedure scale-up. it really is compatible for non-specialists, and is a priceless source for someone embarking at the intriguing route to harnessing the metabolic capability of microorganisms.

Therefore, monitoring the carbon balance is critical for establishing a complete profile of key metabolites in heterologous pathway engineering. In order to find the missing carbon, heterologous enzymes and nonnative metabolites should be individually examined for its effect on metabolite accumulation. Multiple analytical methods, such as NMR and MS, need to be applied in order to correctly identify the structure of any new metabolite. One example is the engineering of 1,4-butanediol pathway in E.

1998; Stephanopoulos 1999; Wiechert 2001). As one major tool in systems metabolic engineering, MFA can also be used to predict the cellular behavior under metabolic perturbations. Several recent reviews and a reference book discussed methodology development and application of MFA (Woolston et al. 2013; Zamboni et al. 2009; Lee et al. 2011; Kromer et al. 2014). Under both genetic and environmental perturbations, the natural metabolic network was shown to be surprisingly robust through rerouting metabolic and catabolic pathways (Ishii et al.
