Summary:This volume presents protocols for systems and synthetic biology applications in the field of hydrocarbon and lipid microbiology. It complements another volume that describes generic protocols for wet experimental and computer-based systems and synthetic biology studies. The protocols in this volume demonstrate how to employ systems and synthetic biology approaches in the design of microbes for the production of esters, isoprenoids, hydrophobic polymers, rhamnolipid biosurfactant, and peptide antimicrobial and thioether-stabilised molecules.
