CE 508LEC - Metabolic Engineering

This course deals with the analysis and medication of metabolic pathways. It provides an integration and quantification approach towards metabolism and cell physiology. Areas that will be covered in this course include a review of cellular metabolism, comprehensive models for cellular reactions, regulation of metabolic pathways, examples of pathway manipulations (metabolic engineering in practice), metabolic flux analysis and metabolic control analysis. Some concepts of bioinformatics in a way that relate with cell metabolism studies, will also be introduced.
