GTP-binding protein Era: a novel gene target for biofuel production.

BMC biotechnology - 24 Mar 2015

Voshol Gerben P, Meyer Vera, van den Hondel Cees A M J J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Biodiesel production using cyanobacteria is a promising alternative to fossil fuels. In this study we created a transposon library of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 in order to identify novel gene targets for enhanced fatty acid and hydrocarbon production. The transposon library was subsequently screened for desirable traits using macro- and microscopic observations as well as staining with the...
