Opis

This first volume of the Metabolic Engineering Handbook Fundamentals provides an overview of metabolic pathway engineering with a look towards the future. It discusses cellular metabolism, including transport processes inside the cell and energy generating reactions, as well as rare metabolic conversions. This volume also explores balances and reaction models, the regulation of metabolic pathways, and genome scale and multiscale modeling tools. It also covers developing appropriate hosts for metabolic engineering including the use of Escherichia coli, yeast, bacillus subtilis, streptomyces, filamentous fungi, annd mammalian cells using cell culture.
