Gene products from Bacillus megaterium involved in the metabolism of polyhydroxyalkanoic acid (PHA) and the biogenesis of PHA inclusion -bodies
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) comprise a family of macromolecules produced by many bacteria as a carbon and energy reserve and are perceived to have commercial potential as biodegradable thermoplastics. To investigate the biogenesis of PHA inclusion-bodies and the functions of inclusion-body proteins...
