Systems-level characterization and transporter engineering in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for improved hydrocarbon tolerance
Hydrocarbon alkanes, components of major fossil fuels, are considered as next-generation biofuels because their biological production has recently been shown to be possible. However, high-yield alkane production requires robust host cells that are tolerant against alkanes, which exhibit cytotoxicity...
