The production of isoprene from cellulose using recombinant Clostridium cellulolyticum strains expressing isoprene synthase

Abstract Isoprene is an important bulk chemical which is mostly derived from fossil fuels. It is used primarily for the production of synthetic rubber. Sustainable, biotechnology‐based alternatives for the production of isoprene rely on the fermentation of sugars from food and feed crops, creating a...
