Analyzing polyhydroxyalkanoate accumulation and identifying the PHA synthase gene, phaC, in Thermus sp.
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a cellular storage polymer with similar properties to some plastics when extracted from the cell and acts as a renewable and biodegradable plastic alternative. The objective of this research was to identify thermophilic PHA producing microorganisms and characterize thei...
