Metabolic engineering has been developed over the past 20 years to become an important tool for the rational engineering of industrial microorganisms. The overall goal is to achieve a better understanding of the metabolism in different microorganisms, and provide a rational basis to reprogram microorganisms for improved biochemical production.

In this hypothesis, these rare genetic events represent rate-limiting 'bottlenecks' in the clonal evolution of a cancer, and pre-cancerous cells can evolve into neoplastic cells through the acquisition of somatic mutations.This book is written by international leading scientists in the field of genome stability.
