Abstract excerpt
Polyhydroxyalkanoic acids (PHAs) and rhamnolipids considered as biotechnologically important compounds are simultaneously produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Both are synthesized from common precursors, (R)-3-hydroxyfatty acids. To find the probable metabolic relationship between their syntheses, we investigated the PHA and rhamnolipids production in four pha (phaC1, phaC2, phaZ, and phaG), four rhl (rhlA, rhlB,...
