Protein Engineering For Industrial Biotechnology

Herausgeber: Alberghina, Lilia

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The text should be of interest to students and researchers in industrial biotechnology as well as to everybody interested in basic research in protein structure, molecular genetics, bio-organic chemistry, biochemistry, agrobiotechnology, pharmaceutical sciences and medicine.

---

This book presents examples in which the application of protein engineering has successfully solved problems arising in industrial biotechnology. It offers extensive coverage of the use of protein engineering to modify the activity or the stability of industrial enzymes from lipases to proteases, from carboxypeptidases to glucanases and glucosidases, and from pectin modifying enzymes to enzymes able to degrade recalcitrant compounds. It also explains how areas as diverse as agrofood technology, fine chemistry, detergents, bioremediation and biosensors receive significant contributions from protein and solvent engineering.
