Development and application of a transcriptional sensor for detection of heterologous acrylic acid production in E. coli

Abstract Background Acrylic acid (AA) is a widely used commodity chemical derived from non-renewable fossil fuel sources. Alternative microbial-based production methodologies are being developed with the aim of providing “green” acrylic acid. These initiatives will benefit from component sensing too...
