Metabolic Engineering of Bacteria [PDF]
Indian Journal of Microbiology, 2011 Yield and productivity are critical for the economics and viability of a bioprocess. In metabolic engineering the main objective is the increase of a target metabolite production through genetic engineering. Metabolic engineering is the practice of optimizing genetic and regulatory processes within cells to increase the production of a certain ...
