Biochemical and molecular characterization of a novel glycerol dehydratase from Klebsiella pneumoniae 2e with high tolerance against crude glycerol impurities

Abstract Background The direct bioconversion of crude glycerol, a byproduct of biodiesel production, into 1,3-propanediol by microbial fermentation constitutes a remarkably promising value-added applications. However, the low activity of glycerol dehydratase, which is the key and rate-limiting enzym...
