Advances in protein expression technologies have mushroomed in recent years. In this book internationally renown authors comprehensively review current and emerging expression technologies. Detailed reviews of the molecular genetics of expression systems in various organisms are presented. Topics covered include: Expression of extremophilic proteins; expression in E. coli, Bacillus spp., Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and methylotrophic yeasts; insect cell expression and the baculovirus system; and Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell lines for large-scale protein production. Also covered are two emerging expression systems, Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 and Caulobacter crescentus. An essential reference, this book will enable both new and experienced expression technologists to make educated choices on the technology that is best suited for their needs.
