Aims and scope
Microbial Cell Factories is an open access, peer-reviewed, online journal that covers any topic
related to the development, use and investigation of microbial cells as producers of recombinant
proteins and natural products, or as catalyzers of biological transformations of industrial interest.
Microbial Cell Factories is the world leading, primary research journal fully focusing on Applied
Microbiology.
Featured article
A new potential secretion pathway for recombinant proteins in Bacillus subtilis
Due to the lack of an outer membrane, Bacillus subtilis is considered a desirable ‘cell factory’ for
the secretion of recombinant proteins. However, bottlenecks in the classical pathway for the
secretion of recombinant proteins limit its use on a wide scale. Wang et al. show that nonclassically secreted proteins can lead recombinant proteins to the culture medium, and thus nonclassical protein secretion pathways can be exploited as a novel secretion pathway for
recombinant proteins.
Supplements
Microbial Cell Factories publishes selected collections of research articles, conference
proceedings, reviews and reports as supplements, which are free to access online. All articles
published in supplements are subject to peer review; meeting abstracts undergo review and
selection by the conference.

Message from the Editor-in-Chief
Antonio Villaverde:
"The Microbial Cell Factory concept is more alive than ever. Apart from the productiontransformation of conventional metabolites, proteins, fuels, drugs and food, microbial cells are
shown to be excellent producers of biomaterials with important applications in emerging
biomedical fields. The contribution of systems biology principles, metabolic and protein
engineering and 'omic' technologies should permit the full exploitation of microbial cells, which
is progressively achieved from such a combination of interdisciplinary approaches."
