Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Yeast Metabolic Engineering: Methods and Protocols
provides the widely established basic tools used in yeast metabolic engineering, while describing in deeper detail novel and innovative methods that have valuable potential to improve metabolic engineering strategies in industrial biotechnology applications. Beginning with an extensive section on molecular tools and technology for yeast engineering, this detailed volume is not limited to methods for
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
, but describes tools and protocols for engineering other yeasts of biotechnological interest, such as
Pichia pastoris
,
Hansenula polymorpha
and
Zygosaccharomyces bailii
. Tools and technologies for the investigation and determination of yeast metabolic features are described in detail as well as metabolic models and their application for yeast metabolic engineering, while a chapter describing patenting and regulations with a special glance at yeast biotechnology closes the volume. Written in the highly successful
Methods in Molecular Biology
series format, most chapters include an introduction to their respective topic, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Comprehensive and authoritative,
Yeast Metabolic Engineering: Methods and Protocols
aims to familiarize researchers with the current state of these vital and increasingly useful technologies.
