Systems biology for industrial biotechnology / 生物工程学报

ABSTRACT

In industrial biotechnology, microbial cell factories utilize renewable resources to produce energy, materials and chemicals. Industrial biotechnology plays an increasingly important role in solving the resource, energy and environmental problems. Systems biology has shed new light on industrial biotechnology, deepening our understanding of industrial microbial cell factories and their bioprocess from "Black-box" to "White-box". Systems-wide profiling of genome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, and fluxome has proven valuable to better unveil network operation and regulation on the genome scale. System biology has been successfully applied to create microbial cell factories for numerous products and derive attractive industrial processes, which has constantly expedited the development of industrial biotechnology. This review focused on the recent advance and applications of omics and trans-omics in industrial biotechnology, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, fluxomics and genome scale modeling, and so on. Furthermore, this review also discussed the potential and promise of systems biology in industrial biotechnology.
