Converting Cells into Cellular Factories
special issue focusses on the theme of metabolic engineering and the design of cellular factories. This is a very timely issue given that we sit at a newly developing nexus between systems biology understanding and synthetic biology design and construction [1]. The tangible result of these forces is a newfound capacity to rapidly produce an expanding array of new molecules in recombinant organi...
متن کاملBacterial cell factories for recombinant protein production; expanding the catalogue
Escherichia coli has been the pioneering host for recombinant protein production, since the original recombinant DNA procedures were developed using its genetic material and infecting bacteriophages. As a consequence, and because of the accumulated know-how on E. coli genetics and physiology and the increasing number of tools for genetic engineering adapted to this bacterium, E. coli is the pre...
متن کاملMitochondria as biosynthetic factories for cancer proliferation
Unchecked growth and proliferation is a hallmark of cancer, and numerous oncogenic mutations reprogram cellular metabolism to fuel these processes. As a central metabolic organelle, mitochondria execute critical biochemical functions for the synthesis of fundamental cellular components, including fatty acids, amino acids, and nucleotides. Despite the extensive interest in the glycolytic phenoty...
متن کاملMassive-star supernovae as major dust factories.
We present late-time optical and mid-infrared observations of the Type II supernova 2003gd in the galaxy NGC 628. Mid-infrared excesses consistent with cooling dust in the ejecta are observed 499 to 678 days after outburst and are accompanied by increasing optical extinction and growing asymmetries in the emission-line profiles. Radiative-transfer models show that up to 0.02 solar masses of dus...
متن کاملPlants as factories for technical materials.
Until the latter part of the 19th century, humans were largely dependent upon contemporaneous biological sources for the production of all organic materials. Plants and animals provided the only sources of fibers, coatings, lubricants, solvents, dyes, waxes, fillers, and insulation, fragrances, detergents, sizing, leather, wood, paper, rubber, and many other types of materials. As recently as 1...
