Manganese orchestrates a metabolic shift leading to the increased bioconversion of glycerol into α-ketoglutarate.

Manganese orchestrates a metabolic shift leading to the increased bioconversion of glycerol into α-ketoglutarate.

Glycerol is a major by-product of the biodiesel industry and its transformation into value-added products is an ongoing technological challenge. Here we report on the ability of the nutritionally-versatile <em>Pseudomonas fluorescens</em> to synthesize copious amount of α-ketoglutarate...
