Metabolic Engineering

Metabolic engineering is like tinkering with a biological system, such as bacteria or yeast, to make them produce useful substances like medicines or biofuels. Scientists modify the genetic makeup of these organisms to optimize their metabolic pathways. It's like rewiring a circuit to make it work better. By doing this, researchers can create more efficient and sustainable ways to produce valuable products that can benefit society and the environment.
