Microbial Cell Factories

This special issue covers the topic of 'Constructing 'intelligent' microbial cell factories' by dynamic and systems metabolic engineering approaches. The main topics include:      

• Dynamic metabolic engineering
• Systems metabolic engineering
• Synthetic metabolic engineering
• Environmental stress analysis and engineering
• Rewiring of metabolic pathways and networks
• Pathway regulation mechanism analysis and re-construction
• Development and design of genome precision-editing tools

Edited by Prof Long Liu, Jiangnan University, China. Read the Special Issue.

Microbial Cell Factories is an open access peer-reviewed journal that covers any topic related to the development, use and investigation of microbial cells as producers of recombinant proteins and natural products, or as catalyzers of biological transformations of industrial interest. Microbial Cell Factories is the world leading, primary research journal fully focusing on Applied Microbiology.

The journal is divided into the following editorial sections:

Metabolic engineering
Synthetic biology
Whole-cell biocatalysis
Microbial regulations
Recombinant protein production/bioprocessing
Production of natural compounds
Systems biology of cell factories
Microbial production processes
Cell-free systems

The Editor-in-Chief, Prof Grzegorz Wegrzyn and the guest editor, Dr Santanu Banerjee, University of Miami, Florida, USA invite the submission of articles for a special collection with a thematic scheme: ‘Microbiome in human physiological function’. Read more.
