Biocatalysis: Biochemical Fundamentals and Applications

In this Completely Revised and Extended Edition with a significantly enhanced printed content, all Chapters have been updated considering relevant literature and recent developments until 2015 together with application oriented examples with a focus on Industrial Biocatalysis. Newly treated topics comprise among others systems metabolic engineering approaches, metagenome screening, new tools for pathway engineering, and de-novo computational design as actual research areas in biocatalysis. Information about different aspects of RNA technologies, and completely new Chapters on 'Fluorescent Proteins' and 'Biocatalysis and Nanotechnology' are also included. Contents: Introduction History of Biocatalysis Classification of Enzymes Non-protein Groups in Biocatalysis Introduction into Kinetics Enzyme Kinetics Mechanisms in Enzymatic Catalysis and Enzyme Models Synthesis of Peptide Antibiotics Immobilization Biocatalysts Structure, Function, and Application of Enzymes Enzymes in Non-conventional Media Methods to Improve Biocatalysts Metabolic Pathway Engineering Catalytic Antibodies Nucleic Acids as Catalysts Use of Enzymes in Industry White Biotechnology Fluorescent Proteins: Nanobiocatalysis
