Genetic Regulation of Alginate Production in Azotobacter vinelandii a Bacterium of Biotechnological Interest: A Mini-Review

Alginates are a family of polymers composed of guluronate and mannuronate monomers joined by β (1–4) links. The different types of alginates have variations in their monomer content and molecular weight, which determine the rheological properties and their applications. In industry, alginates are co...
