Steryl Ester Formation and Accumulation in Steroid-Degrading Bacteria
Oleaginous bacteria exhibit great potential for the production of high-value neutral lipids, such as triacylglycerols and wax esters. This study describes the formation of steryl esters (SEs) as neutral lipid storage compounds in sterol-degrading ...
