Production and Formulation of Adenovirus Vectors
Adenovirus vectors have attracted considerable interest over the past decade, with ongoing clinical development programs for applications ranging... -
Molecular Conjugates
Molecular conjugates are nanometer-sized entities consisting of synthetic materials (lipids, polycations, targeting agents, and so on) and nucleic... -
Genetic Linkage Learning Techniques
The importance of learning genetic linkage has been discussed in the previous chapter and recognized in the field of genetic and evolutionary... -
A Dynamic Model of Gene Regulatory Networks Based on Inertia Principle
In molecular biology, functions are produced by a set of macromolecules that interact at different levels. Genes and their products, proteins,... -
Regeneration of Urologic Tissues and Organs
Patients suffering from a variety of urologic diseases may be treated with transplanted tissues and organs. However, there is a shortage of donor... -
Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy with Autofluorescent Proteins
Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is a versatile technique operating at the single-molecule level, that successfully meets many challenges... -
Fish and Shellfish Upgrading, Traceability
Recognition of the limited biological resources and the increasing environmental pollution has emphasised the need for better utilisation of... -
Stress Induced by Recombinant Protein Production in Escherichia coli
Strong production of recombinant proteins interferes with cellular processes in many ways. Drainage of precursors and energy urges the cell to... -
Roles of Heat-Shock Chaperones in the Production of Recombinant Proteins in Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli is a versatile organism for the production of recombinant proteins. Often, however, the recombinant protein does not reach its... -
Clarification of Interactions among Microorganisms and Development of Co-culture System for Production of Useful Substances
Co-culture systems containing two microorganisms for the production of useful substances are described. We developed a novel co-culture system... -
Bacterial Capsular Polysaccharide and Sugar Transferases
Capsular polysaccharides (CPs) of several pathogenic bacteria are thought to be good materials for the development of new therapeutic reagents. These... -
Bacterial Sterilization and Intracellular Protein Release by a Pulsed Electric Field
Several biotechnological applications of high-voltage pulsed electric field (PEF) are introduced. Electrical breakdown or disruption of a biological... -
Facts and Theories of Induced Organ Regeneration
Induced organ regeneration is de novo synthesis of a physiological, or nearly physiological, organ at the same anatomical site as the organ that is... -

Heart Valve Regeneration
The valves of the heart cannot regenerate spontaneously. Therefore, heart valve disease generally necessitates surgical repair or replacement of the... -
Lager brewing yeast
Lager brewing yeast is a group of closely related strains of Saccharomyces pastorianus/S. carlsbergensis used for lager beer production all over the... -
Fatty Acids from Lipids of Marine Organisms: Molecular Biodiversity, Roles as Biomarkers, Biologically Active Compounds, and Economical Aspects
Because of their characteristic living environments, marine organisms produce a variety of lipids. Fatty acids constitute the essential part of... -
Marine Microalgae
Marine microalgae, the largest primary biomass, have been attracting attention as resources for new metabolites and biotechnologically useful... -
Inclusion Bodies: Formation and Utilisation
The efficient in vivo folding of many heterologous proteins is a major bottleneck of high level production in bacterial hosts and simple optimisation... -
Monitoring of Stress Responses
New developments in the RNA analysis techniques now enable a comprehensive view on the bacterial physiology under bioprocess conditions. The DNA-chip...
