Overexpression of a rice BAHD acyltransferase gene in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) enhances saccharification

BMC Biotechnology, 2018
Background Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is a promising bioenergy feedstock because it can be grown on marginal land and produces abundant biomass. Recalcitrance of the lignocellulosic components of the switchgrass cell wall to enzymatic degradation ...

Fast growth and high-titer bioproduction from renewable formate via metal-dependent formate dehydrogenase in Escherichia coli

Nature Communications
Microbial bioproduction using one-carbon (C1) feedstocks has the potential to decarbonize the manufacturing of materials, fuels, and chemicals. Formate is a promising C1 feedstock, and the realization of industrial, formatotrophic platform organisms is a

RB-TnSeq elucidates dicarboxylic-acid-specific catabolism in β-proteobacteria for improved plastic monomer upcycling

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Dicarboxylic acids are key components of many polymers and plastics, making them a target for both engineered microbial degradation and sustainable bioproduction. In this study, we generated a comprehensive data set of functional evidence for the genetic
