These E. coli would then function as a "whole cell biocatalyst," converting fatty acids and churning out alkenes under the correct circumstances. However, there were some difficulties.

Intriguingly, many FASs include enzymes with overlapping activities. This seemingly inefficient attribute could result from incomplete evolutionary specialization; its widespread occurrence in ...

Important fuels and chemicals have been made in genetically engineered strains of Escherichia coli by modifying this microbe’s fatty acid synthase (FAS), stimulating the bacterium to produce chemicals ...

The E. coli bacteria's enzymes were then converted into fatty acids, and then the fatty acids were converted to hydrocarbons. What made this different than other projects of a similar nature ...

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for fatty acid biosynthesis has emerged as a promising strategy to produce renewable biofuels and value‐added chemicals. Recent advances have focused on ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science’s (IISc) Department of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry (IPC) created an enzymatic platform that can effectively convert naturally occurring, cheap fatty ...
