Muconic acid production from glucose and xylose in Pseudomonas putida via evolution and metabolic engineering

Muconic acid is a platform chemical with wide industrial applicability. Here, the authors report efficient muconate production from glucose and xylose by engineered Pseudomonas putida strain using adaptive laboratory evolution, metabolic modeling, and rational strain engineering strategies.
