Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biotechnological applications of proteins refer to the use of proteins in various fields of biotechnology to develop new products, processes, and technologies. Proteins have an essential role in numerous biological processes and are therefore vital for many biotechnological applications. These applications include protein engineering, biocatalysis, medical diagnostics and therapeutics, industrial enzyme production, food processing, and agriculture. The techniques used to manipulate proteins for specific purposes have led to advances in disease treatment, drug development, and bioremediation, making them crucial components in the biotech industry.
This Special Issue intends to publish original and/or review articles covering the state of the art in and future viewpoints of biotechnological applications of proteins.
