Blue Biotechnology : From Gene to Bioactive Product Hardback
Edited by Werner E. G. Muller, Heinz C. Schroder, Xiaohong Wang
Part of the Marine Molecular Biotechnology series
Hardback
Description
This book describes the discovery of molecules from unexploited extreme marine environments, and presents new approaches in marine genomics.
It combines the current state of knowledge in marine genomics and advanced natural products’ chemistry to pursue the sustainable production of novel secondary metabolites (lead compounds), as well as pharmacologically active peptides/proteins, with antimicrobial, neuroprotective, anti-osteoporotic, anti-protozoan/anti-plasmodial, anti-ageing and immune-modulating effects.
Further, it employs molecular-biology-based approaches and advanced chemical techniques to obtain and to select candidate compounds for pre-clinical and clinical studies.
