Metabolic engineering for efficient supply of acetyl-CoA from different carbon sources in Escherichia coli

Abstract Background Acetyl-CoA is an important metabolic intermediate and serves as an acetylation precursor for the biosynthesis of various value-added acetyl-chemicals. Acetyl-CoA can be produced from glucose, acetate, or fatty acids via metabolic pathways in Escherichia coli. Although glucose is...
