Improving formaldehyde consumption drives methanol assimilation in engineered E. coli
Engineering E. coli for metabolization of methanol to produce fuels and chemicals has not been fully achieved. Here, the authors combine metabolic engineering and chemical inhibition to improve methanol assimilation and distinguish the role of kinetics and thermodynamics under various culture condit...
