Production of Biopharmaceutical | Genetics

Plants are the potential source for the commercial production of biopharmaceuticals such as proteins, peptides, enzymes and carbohydrates. Biopharmaceuticals have traditionally been produced by routine conventional systems such as microbial fermentation and cultured mammalian cells. The demand for the pharmaceuticals and new therapeutic proteins, discovered through genomics, will increase considerably. The use of pharmaceutical proteins from natural source (animals and [...]

Production of Chain Fatty Acids | Genetics

in this article we will discuss about the production of medium and longer chain fatty acids. Productions of Medium Chain Fatty Acids: Several plant oil is made up of medium chain or short chain fatty acids. Major portion of the vegetable oil consist of fatty acids like stearic, palmetic, oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids. These are C16 and C18 in [...]

Production of Biopolymer | Genetics

The commercial production of biopolymer is aimed as bio-degradable alteration to petrochemicals (synthetic) plastics. The homopolymer poly (3-4 hydroxy butyrate) (PHB) shows brittle, whereas copolymer like poly (3-hydroxy butyrate-co-3-hydroxy valerate) (PHBV) are more flexible due to their reduced crystallanity and are well suited for commercial applications. Polyhydroxybutyrate is best characterized polymer synthesized in bacteria Alkaligenes entrophus accumulate upto 70% of [...]
