Linking genotype and phenotype in an economically viable propionic acid biosynthesis process

Abstract Background Propionic acid (PA) is used as a food preservative and increasingly, as a precursor for the synthesis of monomers. PA is produced mainly through hydrocarboxylation of ethylene, also known as the ‘oxo-process’; however, Propionibacterium species are promising biological PA produce...
