Metabolic Burden: Cornerstones in Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering Applications.
Engineering cell metabolism for bioproduction not only consumes building blocks and energy molecules (e.g., ATP) but also triggers energetic inefficiency inside the cell. The metabolic burdens on microbial workhorses lead to undesirable physiological changes, placing hidden constraints on host productivity. We discuss cell physiological responses to metabolic burdens, as well as strategies to i...
متن کاملTranscription control engineering and applications in synthetic biology
In synthetic biology, researchers assemble biological components in new ways to produce systems with practical applications. One of these practical applications is control of the flow of genetic information (from nucleic acid to protein), a.k.a. gene regulation. Regulation is critical for optimizing protein (and therefore activity) levels and the subsequent levels of metabolites and other cellu...
متن کاملNanocomposite Based on Albumin Protein and Review of Its Applications in Medical Engineering
Albumin is a protein macromolecule that it has been attractive since the early 20th century and has several therapeutic applications. Albumin is an aboundant serum with good biocompatibility, hematopoiesis and biodegradability in blood. The existence of multiple functional groups makes it possible to carry significant amounts of therapeutic and diagnostic factors, as well as targeting factors. ...
متن کاملProtein engineering of oxidoreductases utilizing nicotinamide-based coenzymes, with applications in synthetic biology
Two natural nicotinamide-based coenzymes (NAD and NADP) are indispensably required by the vast majority of oxidoreductases for catabolism and anabolism, respectively. Most NAD(P)-dependent oxidoreductases prefer one coenzyme as an electron acceptor or donor to the other depending on their different metabolic roles. This coenzyme preference associated with coenzyme imbalance presents some challe...
متن کاملRecent applications of synthetic biology tools for yeast metabolic engineering.
The last 20 years of metabolic engineering has enabled bio-based production of fuels and chemicals from renewable carbon sources using cost-effective bioprocesses. Much of this work has been accomplished using engineered microorganisms that act as chemical factories. Although the time required to engineer microbial chemical factories has steadily decreased, improvement is still needed. Through ...
