Metabolomics in Metabolic Engineering

Metabolic engineering is the need of genetic engineering to modify the metabolism of an organism which deals with measurement of metabolic fluxes and elucidation of their control as determinants of cell physiology and metabolic function. An innovative aspect of metabolic engineering is that it evacuate from the outdated reductionist paradigm of cellular metabolism, taking a holistic view. Metabolic engineering is acceptable as a framework for the analysis of genome wide differential organic phenomenon data, together with data on protein content and in-vivo metabolic fluxes. The main aim of metabolic engineering is to manipulate metabolite production.
