CRISPR interference-guided modulation of glucose pathways to boost aconitic acid production in Escherichia coli

Abstract Background One major mission of microbial breeding is high-level production of desired metabolites. Overproduction of intermediate metabolites in core pathways is challenging as it may impair cell growth and viability. Results Here we report that aconitic acid, an intermediate metabolite in...
