Foreword

I am happy to write an introductory massage for “Engineering of Microbial Biosynthetic Pathways,” a timely volume on the rapidly evolving field of metabolic engineering. The engineering of biosynthetic pathways has the potential to produce a large amount of valuable biomolecules by extension or modification of biosynthetic pathways in a wide range of organisms. Modified organisms have ability to produce a high amount of chemicals, drugs, enzymes, amino acids, antibiotics, biofuels, and so on. The recent advances in metabolic engineering along with fermentation and bioprocess technology have widened our understanding of industrial scal
