Golden Gate 4 (Hilton)
Description:
Non-traditional hosts systems provide a diverse genetic background which can serve as an advantageous production platform for a wide range of pharmaceuticals, biochemicals and biofuels. This session will focus on metabolic engineering efforts in a range of non-model organisms which include but are not limited to plants, algae, cyanobacteria, archaea, and etc. Example topic areas include molecular tool development, production of novel products, quantification of metabolic fluxes or construction of genome scale models, inverse metabolic engineering, and application of transcriptomics (RNA seq), proteomics, and etc. to pathway engineering.
