Protein engineering has proved to be one of the more fruitful
technological approaches in biotechnology, being both very powerful
and able to generate valuable intellectual property. This book aims
to present examples in which the application of protein engineering
has successfully solved problems arising in industrial
biotechnology. There is a section on its use to enhance
purification of recombinant proteins. The use of protein
engineering to modify the activity or the stability of industrial
enzymes from lipases to proteases, from carboxypeptidases to
glucanases and glucosidases, and from pectin modifying enzymes to
enzymes able to degrade recalcitrant compounds is extensively
covered. It is shown how areas as diverse as agrofood technology,
fine chemistry, detergents, bioremediation and biosensors receive
significant contributions from protein and solvent engineering. The
application of protein engineering to health care is also covered,
from the development of new vaccines to new potential therapeutic
proteins. A specific notation is given to protein engineering in
the development of target molecules for drug discovery.
International in scope, the many contributions are drawn from
academia and industry. The text should be of interest to students
and researchers in industrial biotechnology as well as to everybody
interested in basic research in protein structure, molecular
genetics, bio-organic chemistry, biochemistry, agrobiotechnology,
pharmaceutical sciences and medicine.
