Engineering Clostridial Aldehyde/Alcohol Dehydrogenase for Selective Butanol Production
ABSTRACT Butanol production by Clostridium acetobutylicum is accompanied by coproduction of acetone and ethanol, which reduces the yield of butanol and increases the production cost. Here, we report development of several clostridial aldehyde/alcohol dehydrogenase (AAD) variants showing increased bu...
