Metabolic Engineering

GlycosBio’s science team is pioneering industrial biotechnology by engineering optimal genetic routes towards high value environmentally friendly biochemicals and fuels, utilizing non food feedstocks that are considered waste or low value in the industrial complex.

As a core competency, GlycosBio’s metabolic engineering resources commercialize the genetic and regulatory processes within cells to increase the cells’ production of a certain green chemical substances. Our engineers commonly work to reduce cellular energy use (ie, the energetic cost of cell reproduction or proliferation) and to reduce waste production to create the yields and economics that are required to be economically competitive to alternative petroleum based chemical processes.

To help understand the use of metabolic engineering in other processes, the producing beer, wine, cheese, pharmaceuticals, and other biotechnology products often involves metabolic engineering.

Molecular biology is the study of biology at a micro or molecular level. This exciting field overlaps with other areas of biology and chemistry, particularly genetics and biochemistry. Molecular biology chiefly concerns itself with understanding the interactions between the various systems of a cell, including the interactions between DNA, RNA and protein biosynthesis as well as learning how these interactions are regulated.

GlycosBio is a scientifically focused company with expertise in molecular biology as well metabolic engineering. The GlycosBio science team leverages their understanding of genetics and biochemistry to create unique metabolic pathways to newly discovered green chemicals and fuels.
