Metabolic Engineering of <i>Escherichia coli</i> for High-Level Production of (<i>R</i>)-Acetoin from Low-Cost Raw Materials
Acetoin is an important four-carbon platform chemical with versatile applications. Optically pure (<i>R</i>)-acetoin is more valuable than the racemate as it can be applied in the asymmetric synthesis of optically active α-hydroxy ketone derivatives, pharmaceuticals, and liquid crystal c...
