Designer microbes generated through reprogramming the microbial cell factories (MCFs) provide an edge over their natural counterparts in terms of increased molecular diversity and selective chemistry. These bugs are becoming instrumental in several areas including agriculture, environment and human health. Engineering microbes through directed evolution not only gives freedom from evolutionary constrains but also allow introduction of regulated and foreseeable functions into MCFs. The process of development and deployment of metabolically/genetically engineered MCFs requires knowledge of biotechnology for pathway engineering and regulatory affairs. Designer Microbial Cell Factories: Metabolic Engineering and Applications provides a detailed overview of the biotechnological approaches and strategies used to generate engineered microbes and to facilitate the acceleration, modulation and diversion of metabolic pathways to get desired output such as production of value-added compound or biodegradation of xenobiotic pollutant. The book also highlights applied aspects of designer microbes in fields as diverse as agriculture, pharmaceuticals and bioremediation. Dedicated to the designing of microbes and covers state-of-the-art technological advancements in the field Includes applications of metabolic engineering in the field of agriculture, bioremediation, value-added products, therapeutics and more Contains chapters dedicated to innovative approach of engineered microbial consortia Provides comprehensive details while assisting the understanding of the concepts
