[Application of genetic engineering in changing of saccharomyces cervisiae metabolism]

ABSTRACT

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the most important industrial yeast for production of biochemical components, recombinant proteins and single-cell protein. We can use various genetic engineering methods for changing of yeast metabolic pathway[s] to increase of substrate source range such as xylose and lactose, increase of production efficiency and facilitate of industrial fermentation process. These modifications are discussed in new phylome of biology named "metabolic engineering". Here we are going to introduce a brief expression of this scientific field
