Improving Engineered<em> Escherichia coli</em> strains for High-level Biosynthesis of Isobutyrate

Isobutyrate is an important platform chemical with various industrial applications. Previously, a synthetic metabolic pathway was constructed in <em>E. coli</em> to produce isobutyrate from glucose. However, isobutanol was found to be a major byproduct. Herein, gene knockouts and enzyme...
