629 Advances in Metabolic Engineering and Bioinformatics for Biofuels I: Strain Optimization

Thursday, November 12, 2015: 8:30 AM - 11:00 AM
150D/E (Salt Palace Convention Center)

Description:
This session will cover recent developments in strain optimization for improving titers and yields of fermentation products. Targets may be biofuels or biobased chemicals. Relevant methods used in these efforts may include protein engineering, pathway engineering, cellular-scale engineering, synthetic biology and model-based approaches.
