Metabolic engineering of an acid-tolerant yeast strain Pichia kudriavzevii for itaconic acid production
Itaconic acid (IA), or 2-methylenesuccinic acid, has a broad spectrum of applications in the biopolymer industry owing to the presence of one vinyl bond and two acid groups in the structure. Its polymerization can follow a similar mechanism as acrylic acid but additional functionality can be incorpo...
