Microbiology MOOC title3

Daily Newsletter February 23, 2012

Daily Challenge: Continue to think about and reflect upon Genomics, Proteomics and Metabolomics. Use these a jumping off points:

1) What is the goal of metabolomics? Why would someone want to study it.

2) Why do you need to know about the genome if you are going to study proteomics? Why do you need to have a grasp of the metabolme if you are going to study proteomics?

3) Is the study of genomics complete without the study of proteomics and metabolomics? Why?

4) In the problem posed yesterday, how does genomics, proteomics and metabolomics play a role?

5) Give a description of metabolic engineering. Look on line to find an example of metabolic engineering, and describe it.
