Researchers Calculate Cell Chemical Reaction Rates Using Gene Expression

A pair of Rutgers–Camden researchers is taking an innovative approach to measuring how quickly cells react with chemicals. The new process could be a valuable resource in metabolic engineering and biochemical production. The key lies within a cell’s genes. “Genes produce the proteins that make chemical reactions happen. They tell you a lot about what’s … Continue reading Researchers Calculate Cell Chemical Reaction Rates Using Gene Expression
