Isobutanol production in Synechocystis PCC 6803 using heterologous and endogenous alcohol dehydrogenases

Isobutanol is a flammable compound that can be used as a biofuel due to its high energy density and suitable physical and chemical properties. In this study, we examined the capacity of engineered strains of Synechocystis PCC 6803 containing the α-ketoisovalerate decarboxylase from Lactococcus lacti...
