Synthesis of three advanced biofuels from ionic liquid-pretreated switchgrass using engineered Escherichia coli

Synthesis of three advanced biofuels from ionic liquid-pretreated switchgrass using engineered Escherichia coli

One approach to reducing the costs of advanced biofuel production from cellulosic biomass is to engineer a single microorganism to both digest plant biomass and produce hydrocarbons that have the properties of petrochemical fuels. Such an organism would require pathways for hydrocarbon production an...
