Production of Recombinant Proteins

While the choices of microbial and eukaryotic expression systems for production of recombinant proteins are many, most researchers in academic and industrial settings do not have ready access to pertinent biological and technical information since it is normally scattered throughout the scientific literature. This book closes the gap by providing information on the general biology of the host organism, a description of the expression platform, a methodological section – with strains, genetic elements, vectors and special methods, where applicable – as well as examples of proteins produced with the respective platform. The systems thus described are well balanced by the in…
