Synthetic Biology Approaches to Hydrocarbon Biosensors: A Review
Monooxygenases are a class of enzymes that facilitate the bacterial degradation of alkanes and alkenes. The regulatory components associated with monooxygenases are nature’s own hydrocarbon sensors, and once functionally characterised, these components can be used to create rapid, inexpensive and se...
