  • Expanding the Toolkit for Metabolic Engineering
    Expanding the Toolkit for Metabolic Engineering Yao Zong (Andy) Ng Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Yao Zong (Andy) Ng All rights reserved ABSTRACT Expanding the Toolkit for Metabolic Engineering Yao Zong (Andy) Ng The essence of metabolic engineering is the modification of microbes for the overproduction of useful compounds. These cellular factories are increasingly recognized as an environmentally-friendly and cost-effective way to convert inexpensive and renewable feedstocks into products, compared to traditional chemical synthesis from petrochemicals. The products span the spectrum of specialty, fine or bulk chemicals, with uses such as pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, flavors and fragrances, agrochemicals, biofuels and building blocks for other compounds. However, the process of metabolic engineering can be long and expensive, primarily due to technological hurdles, our incomplete understanding of biology, as well as redundancies and limitations built into the natural program of living cells. Combinatorial or directed evolution approaches can enable us to make progress even without a full understanding of the cell, and can also lead to the discovery of new knowledge. This thesis is focused on addressing the technological bottlenecks in the directed evolution cycle, specifically de novo DNA assembly to generate strain libraries and small molecule product screens and selections. In Chapter 1, we begin by examining the origins of the field of metabolic engineering. We review the classic “design–build–test–analyze” (DBTA) metabolic engineering cycle and the different strategies that have been employed to engineer cell metabolism, namely constructive and inverse metabolic engineering.

  • June 17 Newsletter
    ESSEX EGYPTOLOGY GROUP Newsletter 108 June/July 2017 DATES FOR YOUR DIARY 4th June Hatshepsut’s temple at Deir el-Bahri: Sergio Alarcon Robledo 2nd July The stone village at Amarna: Anna Garnett 6th August Short talks, book auction and annual general meeting 3rd September Justice in ancient Egypt: Alexandre Loktionov 1st October Ancient Egyptian Furniture: from the earliest to those “wonderful things” of the New Kingdom: Dr Geoffrey Killen This month we welcome, from Madrid, Sergio Alarcón Robledo. Sergio is one of the architects working at the Polish-Egyptian Archaeological and Conservation Mission of the Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari. He has studied Architecture at the Technical University of Madrid, and the MPhil of Egyptology at the University of Cambridge. His work has mainly focused on the excavation and interpretation of architectural evidence from ancient Egypt. His fieldwork experience includes his work at Deir el-Bahari and some nearby New Kingdom and Third Intermediate Period tombs. This coming season he will also join the Middle Kingdom Theban Project and the Egypt Exploration Society’s Mission at Zawyet Sultan. The temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el-Bahari, is one of the oldest known New Kingdom royal buildings, and is key for the interpretation of the Theban mortuary temples, as well as for a better understanding of how the royal identity was shaped in the beginning of the New Kingdom.
