Abstract excerpt
Heterologous expression of the phaC1 gene from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which encodes one of the polyhydroxyalkanoic acid synthases, in Escherichia coli impaired in fatty acid beta-oxidation results in polyhydroxyalkanoic acid accumulation when cells were cultivated on fatty acids. We evaluated the application of the fatty acid beta-oxidation inhibitor acrylic acid as a tool to channel intermediates of...
