• Page ID 8741

Industrial microbiology is a branch of biotechnology that applies microbial sciences to create industrial products in mass quantities. There are multiple ways to manipulate a microorganism to increase maximum product yields. Introduction of mutations into an organism many be accomplished by introducing them to mutagens. The medical application to industrial microbiology is the production of new drugs synthesized in a specific organism for medical purposes

Microbiology articles from across Nature Portfolio

Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, archaea, fungi and protozoa. This discipline includes fundamental research on the biochemistry, physiology, cell biology, ecology, evolution and clinical aspects of microorganisms, including the host response to these agents.

Co-evolved genes improve the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites

A new engineering strategy for improving the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in Streptomyces has been developed through the analysis of genes co-evolved with biosynthetic gene clusters. This strategy has been verified in 11 Streptomyces strains to enhance production of 16,385 metabolites, showing potential applications in drug discovery and industrial production.

Blocking cell death limits lung damage and inflammation from influenza

Animals that receive an inhibitor of an antiviral cell-death response called necroptosis are less likely to die of influenza even at a late stage of infection. This has implications for the development of therapies for respiratory diseases.

About this Research Topic

Biomanufacturing is the use of biological systems, such as microorganisms, animal cells, or plant cells, to produce valuable products such as vaccines, therapeutic proteins, biofuels, and enzymes. It involves the manipulation and engineering of living organisms to produce specific compounds or materials, using advanced biotechnology techniques. Biomanufacturing has the potential to provide more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to traditional manufacturing methods, as it can use renewable resources and reduce waste and energy consumption. Biomanufacturing in the field of systems microbiology is rapidly expanding, with new technologies and applications emerging all the time and the industrial scale up needed to match with manufacturing and commercial processes requires time and investment for success. If completed correctly though, it has significant implications for medicine, energy, agriculture, and many other industries. Technion-Israel 2022 designed a synthetic circuit to decrease the production of decursin and enable therapeutic applications to be further explored. The team was among the top 10 finalists and was awarded the best biomanufacturing project award in 2022. WWU_Muenster 2022 established an adaptable platform for monoterpenoid production, versatile biomolecules with broad applications in healthcare, agriculture, and consumer products. The team was among the top 10 finalists, was nominated for the best biomanufacturing project award, and was awarded the best software tool award in 2022. We are interested in original research articles, systematic reviews, and methods that tackle various biomanufacturing problems and use synthetic biology principles and bioengineering methods. New engineering methods are encouraged. We prefer the articles to utilize synthetic biology. Original research and new methods articles will be our main focus because it has the scope to lead the field into new and exciting directions. The manuscripts should follow all the guidelines given on the journal website for the specific article type. This research topic is open for iGEM competition participants.
