Metabolic engineering strategies to produce medium-chain oleochemicals via acyl-ACP:CoA transacylase activity
Microbial production of oleochemicals involves strategies of expressing thioesterase to narrow the substrate pool for the termination enzyme at the expense of one ATP. Here, the authors developed an alternative energy-efficient strategy to use of an acyl-ACP transacylase to produce medium chain oleo...

description | Microbial production of oleochemicals involves strategies of expressing thioesterase to narrow the substrate pool for the termination enzyme at the expense of one ATP. Here, the authors developed an alternative energy-efficient strategy to use of an acyl-ACP transacylase to produce medium chain oleochemicals in E. coli. |
