Journal ArticleDOI
Rational metabolic engineering for enhanced alpha-tocopherol production in Helianthus annuus cell culture
TL;DR: The utility of model-based metabolic engineering for multi-fold yield enhancement of commercially important plant secondary metabolites is demonstrated and it is demonstrated that the top strategy,overexpression of p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, resulted in a high alpha-tocopherol yielding transformed cell line.
Book ChapterDOI
Bioreactor Design and Analysis for Large-Scale Plant Cell and Hairy Root Cultivation
TL;DR: The chapter includes application of mathematical modeling to optimize the design of bioreactors and in silico prediction of nutrient feeding strategies during fed-batch and continuous mode ofBioreactor cultivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of clinical uricase production by Bacillus cereus under submerged fermentation, its purification and structure characterization
TL;DR: The homology modelling of uricase displayed the conserved T-fold structure and the phylogenetic tree generated by homologous amino acid sequences displayed the clustering of Bacillus uriase with fungal uric enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological phosphate removal by model based fed-batch cultivation of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus
TL;DR: Batch cultivation of A. calcoaceticus was conducted under statistically optimized culture conditions in order to study the kinetics of growth and phosphate uptake, and an improvement to 94% phosphate removal efficiency was observed in fed-batch cultivation as opposed to 78% in 11 h for batch cultivation.
Book ChapterDOI
In Vitro Azadirachtin Production
TL;DR: This chapter provides a deeper insight with respect to the origin, chemical nature, application, mode of action and prevalent technologies for the production of this high-value bioactive molecule azadirachtin.
