Harnessing a P450 fatty acid decarboxylase from Macrococcus caseolyticus for microbial biosynthesis of odd chain terminal alkenes
Alkenes are industrially important platform chemicals with broad applications. In this study, we report a direct microbial biosynthesis of terminal alkenes from fermentable sugars by harnessing a P450 fatty acid (FA) decarboxylase from Macrococcus caseolyticus (OleTMC). We first characterized OleTMC...
