Description for Engineering Complex Phenotypes in Industrial Strains
Hardcover. This book details the current and future tools used in the production of bulk chemicals and biofuels developed from renewable biomass using green technologies. It describes in depth the technology used to unravel the complexity of microbial metabolism in order to produce engineering strains at time scales much faster than would occur naturally. Num Pages: 280 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PS; TC; TDCB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 237 x 163 x 21. Weight in Grams: 620.
This book highlights current trends and developments in the area of engineering strains. The book details the current and future tools used in the production of bulk chemicals and biofuels from renewable biomass using green technologies. Complex phenotypes are traits in a microbe that requires multiple genetic changes to be modulated simultaneously in the microorganism’s DNA. Knowing what those genetic changes are for a given trait and how to make those changes in the most efficient way forms the motivation behind writing this book. This book explains the newer tools to develop and enable engineered strains at time scales much ... Read more
