Adaptation of hydroxymethylbutenyl diphosphate reductase enables volatile isoprenoid production
Volatile isoprenoids produced by plants are emitted in vast quantities into the atmosphere, with substantial effects on global carbon cycling. Yet, the molecular mechanisms regulating the balance between volatile and non-volatile isoprenoid production ...

Metabolic Remodeling during Nitrogen Fixation in Zymomonas mobilis
Zymomonas mobilis is an ethanologenic bacterium currently being developed for production of advanced biofuels. Recent studies have shown that Z. mobilis can fix dinitrogen gas (N2) as a sole nitrogen source. During N2 fixation, Z.

Change of isoprenoids, steranes and terpanes during ex situ bioremediation of mazut on industrial level [PDF]
The paper presents results of the ex situ bioremediation of soil contaminated by mazut (heavy residual fuel oil) in the field scale (600 m3). A treatment-bed (thickness 0.4 m) consisted of mechanically mixed mazut-contaminated soil, softwood sawdust as ...

The biosynthesis and regulation of isoprenoids
Isoprenoids constitute a chemically diverse family of naturally occurring compounds with a common structural five-carbon unit, the isoprene. This review presents the biosynthetic pathway of isoprenoids and the primary enzymes incolued.
