Engineering Bacillus megaterium for production of functional intracellular materials

Abstract Background Over the last 10–15 years, a technology has been developed to engineer bacterial poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) inclusions as functionalized beads, for applications such as vaccines, diagnostics and enzyme immobilization. This has been achieved by translational fusion of foreign p...
