Academic Press Genome Engineering Volume 52 - Methods in Microbiology

Genome Engineering, Volume 52 of the Methods in Microbiology series, provides a detailed look at the latest developments in the field. Published by Academic Press, this volume brings together specialized knowledge from an international board of authors to cover essential topics in microbial research. Researchers and students can find in-depth information on specific processes such as whole genome transplantation in Mollicutes and natural transformation techniques. The text explores the use of natural transformation in Acinetobacter baylyi for streamlined engineering, mutational analysis, and evolution through gene copy number amplification. Additionally, the book offers methods for characterizing cryptic biosynthetic gene clusters in Streptomyces and provides a look at current genome engineering practices in bacteria. This volume serves as a technical resource for those studying biological sciences and advanced microbiology.
