Produktbeschreibung
This textbook of biochemistry has been completely revised and expanded for its second edition. Biotechnologists and bioprocess engineers will find precise information on modern issues in the fascinating and complex field of technical biochemistry, where technology and biology need not be a contradiction. The authors have attempted to write a textbook for students of bioengineering from the students' perspective. Unlike well-known and well-established textbooks in biology, biochemistry, and biotechnology, this book presents biological concepts and links them with technical and engineering problems. The aim of this textbook is to shed light on biochemical principles in natural product biosynthesis and explain their biotechnological and bioprocess engineering production pathways.

Content:
Application of biochemistry in medicine, pharmacy, and engineeringPhotosynthesis - The chemistry of lightCarbohydrate metabolism - Sugars as energy carriersAmino acids and peptides - Proteins as biocatalystsCarbohydrates, lipids, and proteins - Building blocks for technical and pharmaceutical substancesImportant biosyntheses of primary and secondary metabolismNatural product biosynthesis - Biology and chemistry of secondary metabolites
Target Audience:
Students of bioprocess engineering, biotechnology, pharmacy, chemistryBiologists, biotechnologists, process engineers, pharmacists, chemists with a focus on biotechnology

Autorenporträt
Oliver Kayser studied pharmacy and earned his doctorate in Pharmaceutical Biology. Since 2010, he has held the chair of Technical Biochemistry at the Technical University of Dortmund, where he focuses on the heterologous biosynthesis of cannabinoids in yeast. Nils Averesch studied biochemical engineering at the Technical University of Dortmund and earned his PhD with a focus on metabolic engineering from the University of Queensland. After working at NASA Ames Research Center he joined Stanford University and built a research group before becoming faculty at the University of Florida. The Averesch Lab researches the discovery and production of advanced biomaterials using microbial cell factories that utilize waste streams such as greenhouse gases as feedstocks.
