Metabolic engineering of Corynebacterium glutamicum for the production of cis, cis-muconic acid from lignin

Abstract Background Cis, cis-muconic acid (MA) is a dicarboxylic acid of recognized industrial value. It provides direct access to adipic acid and terephthalic acid, prominent monomers of commercial plastics. Results In the present work, we engineered the soil bacterium Corynebacterium glutamicum in...
