Recent Progress in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Biocatalysis and Metabolic Engineering

Bioengineering is a field of study that deals with the application of engineering practices to biology whereas biotechnology is a branch of applied science that uses living organisms and their derivatives to produce products and processes. Biocatalysis refers to the chemical process in which the biological catalysts or enzymes speed-up the process of reactions among organic components. Metabolic engineering aims to improve cellular biosynthetic productivity of target metabolites. This is do...
