Exploring functionality of the reverse β-oxidation pathway in Corynebacterium glutamicum for production of adipic acid
Abstract Background Adipic acid, a six-carbon platform chemical mainly used in nylon production, can be produced via reverse β-oxidation in microbial systems. The advantages posed by Corynebacterium glutamicum as a model cell factory for implementing the pathway include: (1) availability of genetic...
