At the end of this journey, I would like to thank all those who helped me to reach this destination. First and foremost I would like to thank the omnipresent ‘GOD’ for bestowing upon me, his choicest blessing without which this work would have not been accomplished. The worlds “one who direct the path of progress is angelic” are inadequate to express my deep sense of indebtedness and gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Jata Shankar for his solemn efforts, resolute guidance, steadfast encouragement, constructive criticism, meticulous supervision and his kind cooperation throughout the course of the work has enabled me to complete this work. He was always there for me with positive attitude to solve any problem. I especially thank him for his kind support during though time and helping me to learn how to manage the pressure during work. Along with his generous guidance, he gave me space to learn independently, so that I can grow as an ingenious individual. Next, I am thankful to Dr. Sudhir Kumar, Head of the Department of Biotechnology & Bioinformatics, for providing me space and all facilities in the department to carried out this work. Also thanks for his positive attitude and encouragement throughout work period.

Rev., 2020, 49,4615 factories for chemical production Yoo-Sung Ko, †a Je Woong Kim, †a Jong An Lee, a Taehee Han, a Gi Bae Kim, a Jeong Eum Park a and Sang Yup Lee *abc Sustainable production of chemicals from renewable non-food biomass has become a promising alternative to overcome environmental issues caused by our heavy dependence on fossil resources. Systems metabolic engineering, which integrates traditional metabolic engineering with systems biology, synthetic biology, and evolutionary engineering, is enabling the development of microbial cell factories capable of efficiently producing a myriad of chemicals and materials including biofuels, bulk and fine chemicals, polymers, amino acids, natural products and drugs. In this paper, many tools and strategies of systems metabolic engineering, including in silico genome-scale metabolic simulation, sophisticated enzyme engineering, optimal gene expression modulation, in vivo biosensors, de novo pathway design, Received 23rd February 2020 and genomic engineering, employed for developing microbial cell factories are reviewed. Also, detailed DOI: 10.1039/d0cs00155d procedures of systems metabolic engineering used to develop microbial strains producing chemicals and materials are showcased. Finally, future challenges and perspectives in further advancing systems rsc.li/chem-soc-rev metabolic engineering and establishing biorefineries are discussed. Key learning points (1) Systems metabolic engineering, which integrates traditional metabolic engineering with systems biology, synthetic biology, and evolutionary engineering, accelerates the development of efficient microbial cell factories.

RNA was isolated and processed for microarray analysis. Genes showing >2-fold up- or down-regulation compared to control fibroblasts were analyzed using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis Software (Red color, up-regulation; Green color, down-regulation). The transcripts with known gene identifiers (HUGO gene symbols) were entered into the Ingenuity Pathways Knowledge Base IPA 4.0. Each gene identifier mapped in the Ingenuity Pathways Knowledge Base was termed as a focus gene, which was overlaid into a global molecular network established from the information in the Ingenuity Pathways Knowledge Base. Each network contained a maximum of 35 focus genes. 1 Figure S2. The overlap of genes regulated by Poly I:C and by IFN. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to generate a list of 2003 genes showing >2 fold up or down- regulation in fibroblasts treated with Poly I:C for 24 h. The overlap of this gene set with the 117 skin gene IFN Core Signature comprised of datasets of skin cells stimulated by IFN (Wong et al, 2012) was generated using Microsoft Excel. 2 Symbol Description polyIC 24h IFN 24h CXCL10 chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 129 7.14 CCL5 chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 118 1.12 CCL5 chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 5 115 1.01 OASL 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase-like 83.3 9.52 CCL8 chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 8 78.5 3.25 IDO1 indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 76.3 3.5 IFI27 interferon, alpha-inducible
