Systems biology is a rapidly evolving scientific discipline that allows us to understand and predict the metabolism and its changes within the bacterium as a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClostridia represent one of the largest bacterial genera. This group contains organisms with metabolic properties that hold enormous potential for biotechnological processes. A model organism is \u003ci\u003eClostridium acetobutylicum\u003c\/i\u003e that has been, and is still used in large-scale industrial production of the solvents acetone and butanol. Systems biology offers a new way to elucidate and understand the complex regulatory network controlling the different metabolic pathways and their interactions. All aspects from the development of appropriate experimental tools to mathematical modeling are covered, including a fascinating historical account on acetone-butanol fermentation in World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by world-class experts in their fields, \u003ci\u003eSystems Biology of Clostridium\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential source of reference for all biologists, biochemists, chemists, and chemical engineers working on biotechnological fermentations or industrial applications, as well as biofuels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetabolic and Regulatory Networks in \u003ci\u003eClostridium Acetobutylicum\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClostridial Gene Tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupporting Systems Biology of \u003ci\u003eClostridium Acetobutylicum\u003c\/i\u003e by Proteome Analysis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparative Genomic Analysis of the General Stress Response in \u003ci\u003eClostridium Acetobutylicum\u003c\/i\u003e ATCC 824 and \u003ci\u003eClostridium Beijerinckii\u003c\/i\u003e NCIMB 8052\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMathematical Modeling of the pH-Induced Metabolic Shift in \u003ci\u003eClostridium Acetobutylicum\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMathematical Models for Clostridia: From Cultivation Description to Systems Biology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModeling Agr-Dependent Quorum Sensing in Gram-Positive Bacteria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparative Genomic Analysis of the Central Metabolism of the Solventogenic Species \u003ci\u003eClostridium acetobutylicum\u003c\/i\u003e ATCC 824 and \u003ci\u003eClostridium Beijerinckii\u003c\/i\u003e NCIMB 8052\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Strategic Importance of Biobutanol for Japan During WWII: A Case Study of the Butanol Fermentation Process in Taiwan and Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Biologists, chemists, biochemists and chemical engineers working on biotechnological fermentations or industrial applications in biofuels.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Imperial College Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47140126032112,"sku":"9781783264421","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783264421_p0.jpg?v=1763722701","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783264421","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
