Bibliography. Index. The application of modern biotechnology in enzyme manufacturing is dramatically sparking the exploitation of new enzymes and the development of new enzyme properties. Due to new technologies new enzymes not accessible before can be cloned into and produced from a well known host organism. Applying new technologies the enzyme properties may be efficiently altered which will lead to an increase in the variability of enzymes available and might lead to enzymes not present in nature so far. With applying new technologies the variability in enzyme structure is dramatically increased and enzyme properties are significantly enhanced. The applications of bio. in enzyme manufacturing is elaborately described in this volume. It is hoped that this authentic and up to date work will address the needs of practitioners and students in the fields of organic chemistry biology and bioengineering. 280 pp.…
