Modification of acetoacetyl-CoA reduction step in Ralstonia eutropha for biosynthesis of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) from structurally unrelated compounds
Abstract Background Poly((R)-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-(R)-3-hydroxyhexanoate) [P(3HB-co-3HHx)] is a bacterial polyester with high biodegradability, even in marine environments. Ralstonia eutropha has been engineered for the biosynthesis of P(3HB-co-3HHx) from vegetable oils, but its production from stru...
