This detailed volume explores experimental laboratory procedures
for a wide range of steroid bioconversions. After an overview on
the current trends and perspectives, the book continues with
sections covering microbial screening and synthetic biology applied
to microorganisms able to catabolize sterols, methods on strain
characterization, including omics and biochemical analyses, methods
of fermentation and biocatalysis for steroids production, as well
as a chapter on the medical use of glucocorticoids in cancer
patients. 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 on
troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative
and practical, Microbial Steroids: Methods and Protocols, Second
Edition serves as an ideal reference source for laboratory and
industrial professionals, as well as for students in a wide array
of biological disciplines.
