Overexpression and characterization of medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoate granule bound polymerases from <it>Pseudomonas putida </it>GPo1

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are synthesized by many bacteria in the cytoplasm as storage compounds for energy and carbon. The key enzymes for PHA biosynthesis are PHA polymerases, which catalyze the covalent linkage of 3-hydroxyacyl...
