Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Granules Have no Phospholipids [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 AbstractPolyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) granules, also designated as carbonosomes, are supra-molecular complexes in prokaryotes consisting of a PHB polymer core and a surface layer of structural and functional proteins. The presence of suspected phospholipids in the surface layer is based on in vitro data of isolated PHB granules and is often shown in ...
