Increasing 2-methyl-1-butanol tolerance of prokaryotic industrial strains by using randomized libraries of camp receptor protein.

2-methyl-1-butanol is a promising biofuel which could replace the world’s dependence on petroleum diesel. However, industrial production of this alcohol using biocatalyst is inefficient. The average cost of producing a unit of 2-methyl-1-butanol is more than that of petroleum diesel. Hence, better b...
