Control of product molecular weight in the enzymatic synthesis of a biodegradable polyester, polyhydroxybutyrate
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Biology, 2006. === Includes bibliographical references. === Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a polymer accumulated by many bacterial species to store carbon and reducing equivalents. PHB is packaged intracellularly in inclusions termed &qu...
