Introduction

Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a versatile and widely used microorganism that has been extensively studied and engineered for various biotechnological applications. Metabolic engineering of E. coli involves the manipulation of its metabolic pathways to produce valuable compounds, such as biofuels, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals, as well as to improve its growth and survival in different environments.

At CD Biosynsis, we have extensive experience in metabolic engineering of E. coli, and we are committed to providing high-quality services and solutions to our clients.

Our Services for Metabolic Engineering of E coli

CD Biosynsis offers a range of services for metabolic engineering of E. coli, including:

Metabolic Pathway Engineering

We design and engineer E. coli metabolic pathways to produce a wide range of compounds, such as:

  • Biofuels (e.g., butanol, ethanol, and isobutanol)
  • Chemicals (e.g., biodegradable plastics, detergents, and fragrances)
  • Pharmaceuticals (e.g., antibiotics, anti-inflammatory agents, and vaccines)

Gene Editing and Gene Expression

We use state-of-the-art gene editing tools, such as CRISPR-Cas9, to modify genes involved in metabolic pathways and to improve gene expression.

Fermentation Optimization

We optimize E. coli fermentation conditions to improve cell growth and productivity, including the selection of optimal media compositions, pH, temperature, and oxygen levels.
