Synechococcus elongatus as a model of photosynthetic bioreactor for expression of recombinant β-glucosidases

Abstract Background The production of glucose from cellulose requires cellulases, which are obtained from decomposing microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria. Among the cellulases, β-glucosidases convert cellobiose to glucose and have low concentration in commercial cocktails used for the producti...
