Engineering Natural Product Biosynthesis

This volume highlights natural products, molecular methods for identifying, and current trends in designing non-natural natural products. Chapters guide readers through protocols on heterologous expression techniques, gene disruption, modified pathway regulators, and in-vitro studies. Written in the format of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and reagents, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Engineering Natural Product Biosynthesis: Methods and Protocols aims to be a useful and practical guide to new researchers and experts looking to expand their knowledge.
