Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial Enzymes: Tools for Biotechnological Processes
José L. Adrio,Arnold L. Demain +1 more
TL;DR: Microbial diversity and modern molecular techniques are being used to discover new microbial enzymes whose catalytic properties can be improved/modified by different strategies based on rational, semi-rational and random directed evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic improvement of processes yielding microbial products
José L. Adrio,Arnold L. Demain +1 more
TL;DR: Although microorganisms are extremely good in presenting us with an amazing array of valuable products, they usually produce them only in amounts that they need for their own benefit; thus, they tend not to over produce their metabolites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contributions of microorganisms to industrial biology.
Arnold L. Demain,José L. Adrio +1 more
TL;DR: More and more genomes of industrial microorganisms are being sequenced giving valuable information about the genetic and enzymatic makeup of these valuable forms of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fungal biotechnology
José L. Adrio,Arnold L. Demain +1 more
TL;DR: Fungi are used in many industrial processes, such as the production of enzymes, vitamins, polysaccharides, polyhydric alcohols, pigments, lipids, and glycolipids as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oleaginous yeasts: Promising platforms for the production of oleochemicals and biofuels.
TL;DR: This mini-review summarizes the metabolic engineering strategies developed in oleaginous yeasts within the last 2 years to improve process metrics (titer, yield, and productivity) for the production of lipids, free fatty acids, fatty acid-based chemicals, and alkanes.
