Polyhydroxyalkanoate accumulation in Streptomyces coelicolor affected by SCO7613 gene region

, 2021
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is stored as an important carbon and energy source in bacterial cells. For biomedical applications, gram-positive bacteria can be better sources of PHAs, since they lack outer membrane lipopolysaccharide. Although gram-positive
