Beschreibung
This detailed collection explores methods that leverage and extend the capabilities of synthetic biology, guiding the reader from foundational molecular manipulations to complex cellular applications. Beginning with chapters on engineering proteins and enzymes, the book continues by covering methods for the repurposing of viral architectures, from bacteriophages to virus-like particles, as programmable nanoscaffolds, CRISPR-driven genome engineering, directed evolution and selection, as well as the synthesis of functional genetic libraries and the groundbreaking technology of biological "memory," where a cell's history is permanently recorded into its DNA. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips for troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Biological Macromolecule Engineering Technologies serves as an ideal guide for researchers looking to drive the next wave of discovery in biological macromolecule engineering and address some of humanity's most pressing challenges in health, energy, and manufacturing.
