Production of the Sesquiterpene Bisabolene From One‐ and Two‐Carbon Compounds in Engineered Methanosarcina acetivorans

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2025.
Despite the versatile metabolic capacities of methanogenic archaea, they are currently only employed in biotechnology for their methane generating ability. We engineered Methanosarcina acetivorans to produce the sesquiterpene bisabolene from Abies grandis from methanol or from carbon monoxide.
